I managed to score for the first time since October. It seemed to have sat there for a few mins. Curious if the sneaker bois sat this one out after taking a few L's or there was an oversell. I won't count my chickens till they're shipped.

+1.

They def did something different this time from a bot perspective, which I believe is why it sat for a bit. This one's a good one.

It seemed like they did less with no word to type and no boxes around cats or planes.

I got the credit card error, tried again, and it went through.

Looks like duke finally solved the flipping problem. Make the runs and prices cray cray.
$95 is cray cray for 24x36? Haven't all the 24x36 paper releases been around $90? (Raise the Level, Fan the Flames, Golden Future / Welcome Visitor sets, etc.)

Run of 600 is high but some other recent releases have been higher (eg Eyes Open at 625, Cobain at 650).

Oh well. If the flippers stay away I'm happy.

The URL was the product ID rather than its title https://store.obeygiant.com/products/598184395 vs https://store.obeygiant.com/products/ey ... lithograph, and it didn't immediately show up in the products JSON. Bots don't care about typing words, but they do care about URL and product name matching.

Oh. I didn't notice that, but that does make sense.

Just happy with an easy score!

Hmmm. Anyone else have an opinion? I see Cyrus because of the top lip to nose

I wasn't able to cop Raise or Fan so I totes forgot how much they were. I consider the diptychs to be a bit different since it's 2 separate prints. Guess the price/run wasn't dat cray cray after all.

Ya obs have yer fingers on the pulse of botland unlike myself. I hadn't even noticed dis and it may explain a bit more why they hung around. I still think many of the cooks got they fingers burnt one too many times with recent Obey releases, which is why they hung around for a few min. Guess we'll see if this "new" strategy keeps the next decent image in stock for longer as well.

Luls. Truly don't get dis fudge. What's the point of buying for $107 (assuming they ain't in CA), and selling for $130? #rhetoricalquestion #catchandrelease #TGT

last couple of releases they have been doing numbers for the URL and not text.
