i was as well, and just bit the bullet and paid less than 3x the original price on the dirtbag flip website, which considering how much some of them are selling for seems pretty reasonable. I was at wells fargo by 530, sold out outside, in the venue by 8ish and none inside. seems like many people got multiple copies and are doing pretty well with them, which is shitty for the rest of us who simply would have been content to purchase just 1. i cant remember a double show where i disliked one poster (night 1) so much, and just loved the other poster (night 2) as the 2 nite set in phila. congrats to those of you not getting gouged right now.
idk what ur budget is, but i put like 5 of them ending within an hour or two of each other on my dirtbag flip site(ebay) watch list and made my move when i thought price was reasonable. lost on one, won the second, paid 91$. less than the one on the artists site, which was 125$ and an artists proof (he had 100), people make a big deal about the artists proof, doesnt matter to me, just gonna go in a nice simple black frame all the same, that said id rather give the artist the $$ than a jerk off on ebay. the person i won off of had at least 4 for sale, and probably more. Yeah i klnow that makes me part of the problem too by doing business with them, but i just dont see these being available any other way. they sold that lightning fast (pardon the pun on tuesday). it sucks and people are often offering suggestions to ensure more of these get in the hands of 10C members (offer a poster to you when you win tix to shows you select) but logistically i just dont see how thats viable. so decent folk like us who just want an occasional really cool souvenir have to pay above board. i really hope for people like yourself that somehow the artist releases more or PJ decides to have as many printed to satisfy demand, which would be awesome to screw the flippers, but again im not sure that is likely.
i wish you best of luck, great karma, a rosary or two in your hunt. (whatever helps my friend:)))

I got one outside and they were sticking to a strict 2-poster limit. You can blame the person associated with the band that give the ok to let people buy 2.

Price is steep but its a cool poster and odd shape.
