Well that sucked... I had one in my cart the whole time at PostersandToys but it never let me checkout with it... I guess others are having this same problem (i.e Mav22erick only with variant) :cry:

Did any one see foils on EMEK site?

Scored on on the P&T site (yay, a real commerce site...so refreshing!). What's all this about "refunds"...do they oversell or something? If those were to come, typically how soon would one know?

ps - if anyone wants my show version, please PM me.

+1 of the reg ed. with handbill... Passed on the variant... for now. I mean, people realize that business is down 30%-40% across the board... and that it's 2009 and not 2006, right? Guess I just don't understand why artists make the decision to charge more as funds for prints, etc. are becoming more and more scare... I would have loved to have seen $200 or even $250 shipped. Seems fair for an edition of 60... maybe foil is spendy like Gold and I'm just missing something???

That said, I didn't see any variants drop on Emek's site and I'm thinking that P&T only put up a few of what they have in-hand. TBH, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the Banksy (both online and POW)...

Either way, THANKS AGAIN MITCH :notworthy: The Artists edition finally dropped and the wait was more than worth it. Can't wait to see this madness in person!!!

i was driving down the highway, using the iphone, trying not to kill anyone.

i saw the foil go up on P&T, even added it to my cart, but couldn't check out of course. :lol:

managed to pull into the parking lot back at work, run inside, and score a regular from emek. crazy.

Grabbed a foil from P&T and hurried and checked out, then went back in and grabbed the regular and checked out. I didn't want to try and add both to cart at the same time. Precious seconds. Hopefully Mitch can combine shipping? Got confirmation on both. Hopefully not oversold.

It was a lot faster than that. I had one in my cart and it was gone in the split second it took me to check out. One foil I really would've liked to have.

was there a rerelease/2nd chance on Emek's site?
Yeah, the buy button reappeared just long enough for me to click it.
thanks. Emek's site pooped out on me and I was able to grab one on P&T, but with refunds....not too confident on my timing.
I was Mr Fumbley with the keyboard today. I'm out of practice.

I contacted P&T's about it and got this reply:

That means it sold out before you checked out. Live inventory system. Cheers.
