    That's it? Really? Wow! That was the most anti-climatic sale I have ever witnessed. 

    PS I love how they sent an email blast to their whole list over 1 poster dropping at 6pm. LOL

    Laughing at anyone who pays 112.50 for a Missoula 2012 poster.
    Maybe one of the 2 variants, but not the regular.

    That was the once every 25 years sale?  What did they have 4 prints, tops, of those prints?  I guess when a bunch of your prints go to charities for tax deductions, there's not much left over.

    I'm thinking they sold just enough to cover the extra bandwidth they needed today.

    Thank goodness we only have to endure that once every 25 years.  Overhyped and under delivered.

    The Kong doesn't show on my refreshed page.  And really, with what those guys probably sell on the aftermarket, detached from the Ames title, why would they sell that?

    Thanx Andy

    Anyone have buyers remorse and want to offload it??

    Hopefully I’m dead in 25 years.  I can’t possibly survive another onslaught of savings like that.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    I'm shocked that MSG print went for only 100 bucks.
