one question, if there were 300 being sold and the highest # online was 279 today...how are others getting it?

That's only members who are signed into the forum.

Ahhhhhhh, I had no idea. Thanks. It is fun to see 100 jump to 275 between 10:09 and 10:14 AM E.S.T.

After striking out on the Mumford poster at both Fenway shows and AP drops I’m glad to have scored one through 10C today.

Congrats to the people who scored!  I was in and out of meetings today and couldn't devote the ninja-like concentration it usually requires to snag a mega-popular poster like this one.  I had it carted a few times but never was able to check out.  On to the next drop!

It's pretty obvious the website needs to be beefed up when it takes the Mumford over an hour to sell out. If the site was working correctly it would've been gone in less than 3 mins. It would be nice if 10c addressed/acknowledged the issue.

Poster lottery anyone? 

Better idea.

All posters on sale at the same time for $1000 each. At random times, different posters get various price reductions of varying amounts.

Do you buy the Rome at $500 or take a chance it'll survive until the next price drop which could be at 3am your time?

Anything over $35 purchase price goes to Vitalogy Foundation.

This would certainly beat the flippers who would certainly buy a Jackelope for $79 or a Rome for $800.

That's an interesting idea. If the extra money is going to the artist or a charity, that's better than some person buying multiple copies to resell.
Of course, the rich fans will still be able to buy extras - but there resell market will shrink.

Devil's advocate - why does anything need to be fixed on a website that typically 300+ days of the year doesn't have the activity like these poster drops.  Are we just mad because we didn't get our way so we get on her and bitch and moan about it?  Why does PJ need a mega page running off multiple servers when 95% of the time the store is manageable.  Sorry to all those, including myself, who didn't get what they wanted for whatever reason, but deal with it.  If they sold their own tickets, or had something like this selling every single day then sure, but for 1-300 posters per drop every couple of days it seems unnecessary.  Drop the posters at random times instead of Tuesday through Friday between 9:10 and 10am central time and it is all fixed.  As I type this there are 79 people online, no super server needed.

I feel guilty.  I do this to my wife for sure.  It's something I need to work on.  Hopefully it'll get better and I can become more patient and grateful.
Thanks.

I have said it before... and coming from someone who scored every print I wanted this year:

I think for the prints that have a huge predictable demand/supply ratio (like Rome, Berlin, Padova, Thomas Train, Mumford), they should do some sort of lottery draw.  Give an SKU, drop it via a psssst.  Have it open for a couple hours.  Then notify/charge the winners.  I think it could be managed fairly easily and it wouldnt be much extra work at all.

If you put Pearl Jam on it they would be fairly flippable.
