I wish there was a more efficient way to handle shipping. I hate the fact that we have to pay $10 shipping for each order, but feel obligated to purchase them as soon as they're posted to get them before they're sold out. I'm sure this has already been discussed somewhere on this thread, but has anyone tried reaching out to 10C to see if they would combine shipping and refund extra shipping costs?
Probably too much to ask given the large number of orders...but I feel like technology could provide a solution here.

I think they literally roll the number of orders into tubes, print the order labels, slap em on and move onto the next. Logistically it could be a total PITA to pack orders together for these large drops. I feel ya though man.

They state this when you order..."orders can not be combined"

They probably have a good amount already rolled and tubed as well. They aren't stupid; they know they'll sell X amount regardless of how terrible the art is just based on years of experience so it wouldn't shock me if they've tubed a large amount of orders ahead of time . And you're right, logistically it is probably a nightmare for an operation this small/fanbase this big, not to mention you really don't want to roll more than 1 print in the tubes they use anyway.

Yeah....you're right. Sometimes it easy to forget that this entire operation consists of just a few people.

This has been an expensive few days. Got BK Phoenix AP for myself and an event copy for my son. Missed Mumford AP but got a tour copy this morning. Still have to wait on San Diego (though I might pass on that design...). And to top it all off just bought a Baroque 24x36 + 18x24 sleeves...have to get about a dozen posters out of tubes until I can afford framing.

I like this poster. It feels like a disaster movie poster.
I can’t get into the Mumford. I feel like I’ve seen that color scheme and design way too many times.
Dan definitely has a style
I loved the Boston 2018 as most here did. It was the hardest one for me to get there, but I eventually got it inside on night two. But seeing the Madison Square Garden one it is just too similar to me. I wouldn't get it anyway because I wasn't going and I can see why people would really like it still and it does look nice, but it is just such a similar everything to Boston. Maybe that's just me.

All individually beautiful art. But just too similar to buy another one.

Would seem there are even more! I was only familiar with Boston and then saw the MSG one this week.
We have not rolled any posters in advance of this sale.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, it's a 2-3 person operation in the warehouse these days.
We will start processing and shipping these posters next week.
Expect Delays.
Patience is appreciated.
