    What to do? Jump the gun tomorrow, or wait to see if 10c drops the poster? I am torn. Really like the poster and regret not getting it at the show, but to drop $200 is going to hurt a bit.

    If the Artist signature means that much to you, drop the $200. If not, take your chances on a probable 10C sale.
    If you so happen to strike out on the 10C sale, just know the release from the fanclub will then flood the market, thus dropping the prices on the auction sites.
    I think that you'll be fine.
    Don't really care for it to be signed or a variant. It just so happened that the poster really started to grow on me after the shows. And I know that I can basically get it for sure tomorrow. As to waiting to see if Santos gives us the heads up for a sale is a gamble.

    You can still get it on eBay under $75 if you try.

    Got it for $62 including shipping yesterday.
    Checked eBay earlier today and cheapest I saw was 110 plus shipping.
    Keep looking....good luck.
    I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side

    Don't forget about 100 variants selling for at least $250 (probably) each also. They're going to have a hell of good day money wise, good for them.

    There're two guys, so >$42k each. (300 reg @ $200 plus 100 var @ $250 = $85k). I should've tried harder in art class!

    Will these sell out today? Or at this price will it take a few days or weeks to sell out? Still weighing my options on what to do here.

    I'm guessing it won't sell out....but maybe I'm wrong. Also I don't like the variant...not a fan of the yellow there.

    Just wish I knew how many were left over from the show (if any) and when the drop will be here in the 10c (if there will be one) still kicking myself in the rear for not getting one at the show.

    Don't you have any idea how much printer ink costs? It's going to be like $34.93 left after overhead costs.

    Count me as on the fence as well. I am not familiar enough with these guys to justify the $200 price......but, I really would like to have an AP for this one since I was at the show. #firstworldproblems

    IMO, the variant will sell out very quickly. As far as the regular AP, I'm leaning toward it taking up to 10 minutes tops, I could be wrong as well. Just way to many people out there thinking they can buy it and flip it and make a few bucks these days. Just know I won't be spending any money on it today.

    I miss the old "flipability" rating people used to give posters. LOL !! On a scale of 1 - 10 where do you think this poster falls ?

    What was their price for the Spokane '13 AP? Or did they not do an artist run for that one?

    $225 US for their AP run.
    Wow, that's pretty damn pricey. Looks like this will be the most sought out stadium poster for the 10c drop. I never saw this one at Wrigley but I didn't wait over 10 minutes in any merch line either.
    Thomas is going to beat the brakes off of this one I think, as it should.
    Thomas is def a better poster but a lot of folks are looking for this one since it appears merch at Wrigley was a bit more of a shitshow as opposed to Fenway. If I had been at Boston shows I would def be gunning for a Thomas. Its probably the best poster of the stadium shows.....I only wish it had been for Wrigley!
    The Thomas is easily the best of the stadiums (maybe even tour?). If mine ever shows up, I'm taking the Sharpie to it to make it a Wrigley poster though. As for Faile, I passed on it at the show and still would (the dumb dog bothers me). Kind of sad that the Taylor gets little love though.
    The dog head is the reason I passed on this. Couldn't stand it either..

    Anyone's guess... Like you, I was at Wrigley and I couldn't track this print down, I'm not spending this much for a signature, but.... I do think the print will hover around $125-$150 anyway if I can't get it through 10c.

    I don't think it will sell out quickly (variant might), so I'm going to wait and hope that I can grab one here. Even if the AP does sell out at $200 a piece, I wouldn't be surprised if you could get one for that price on ebay in a few months anyway.

    When I was in line Saturday morning they had stacks of it..didn't appeal to me but has grown on me since. Wish I would have pulled the trigger but traded some Wrigley packs for it so all good now.

    Would like a limited, signed variant of a solid poster of a show I attended but the yellow background isn't doing it for me (neither is the $250 tag). Wish they'd used a color than pale yellow for the variant.

    Predicting both of these sell out, steep price and all. Very desirable poster from a big time show.

    I agree wholeheartedly with all of the above. I'm going to try to snag the regular AP - but we'll see how that goes!

    EDIT - SHEESH! $25 for shipping, too?!?!
