Quick question. I have a order # 256** and money was taken. However, I never received a email from Obey.

Should I worry?

Thanks for the answer and I hope you are right.... Last time I get in super quick got all the right emails and then 3 days later they tell me it was oversold here is your money.

It was changed on Monday night I think. I noticed it first thing in the morning.

I don't know if there is any specific method as to how OG does refunds. I've had really low order numbers and been refunded and high ones which I didn't get refunded for. I think they're random and don't have anything to do with order numbers.. but some might say that I'm just spreading rumors.

I talked to Japr when I got refunded for the Japanese patterns and she told me there is no rhyme or reason to refunds...and also that orders numbers don't mean fudge.....good luck

This happens every week I realize, but I still can't get over how many of these are already on Ebay. It's one thing to flip a poster, another to flip it before it's even in hand.

Only been refunded 1 time on an Obey sale.

i blame those people who buy the prints from the flippers. the flippers know that they can usually get the most for a print right after it sells out. i never sell a print before it is in hand, not worth the headaches if you get a damaged one.

i too heard from jaspr that they accidentally oversold and will be issuing refunds, so technically nothing is confirmed til you get the print in hand.

p.s. they are also looking for a better server to handle their volume, i hope its soon

I do sometimes enjoy the fact that it takes awhile to get through the server. Its not like emeks where sometimes you see it sometimes u dont.

not me. i'd rather be doing something fun and know relatively quickly if I got one or not, so I can move on. Yesterday went smooth compared to the doh1-3 releases. So whatever work they did back then helped. Now they probably have even higher demands on their system and have to retool again. Jaspr told me they are doing more upgrades soon too. So I guess its true. OBey, right?
