I wonder if we can collectively amass the hours we wasted and charge Obey an hourly rate for testing their server. Maybe next sale, we can DoS attack their server? I guess that's all we're really doing anyway.
i still can't get over the "the sql server has gone away" error message. he could at least have left a message on my answering machine so i don't drive there unannounced to only find out he ain't there.

doubt it, there actually have not been a lot of refunds on the last few sales, and they don't always go bu order number....

they process domestic first then international so international folks get first dibs on refunds

the diff between the highest and lowest 605X and 543X, is about 620. hopefully nobody gets refunded.

People on Giant Forum posted earliest Invoice Numbers as

5450 and I'm in the 614X's

But an OG 1000+post guy said that sounds about right 550+ 150 = 700

With 50 left to grease industry douchebags with, or surprise people with two years down the line at random fundraiser events etc.

700 Sold

50 + archived


I think Red looks better than that yellow gold orig. Mainly because it's a Flower/Rose and usuing Red makes alot of sense to me

I wound up with two I'm so overzealous. So there's at least one more person that was on the outside that's going to get one.

I called Jaspr to inquire if I would be getting two, and sadly, no. Apparently it happened a lot today, go figure. She sounded tired.

I did the checkout today for the new WAR BY NUMBERS offset like 7 times!
I went through the entire check out and was directed back to OBEY from PAYPAL then the site crashed!!!!!! I waited all day to make this purchase. Those guys over at obey should get their site together if the hope to handle a turnout for a new release. Very disappointing.

Why doesn't OBEY just use eBay for their sales. They have like a trillion servers and can handle the turnout.


just a thought?
