I was on the all page came up as sold out. Maybe if you were on the Pearl Jam specific page it came up a few seconds earlier. With that few available certainly wasn’t counting on grabbing one.

Which page did those who were able to add to cart? I was F5'ing https://www.ianwilliamsdesign.com/ intensely! Once the skateboard icon came up it had the Sold Out button on it.

I was on the PJ page, practiced checking out on few other posters, and did it as fast as humanly possible with insanely fast internet.
and yet still......screwed.

If the regular ones are selling for $500-$600 on eBay, who even knows what this one will go for.
I'm not implying that maybe there was some funny business here, but I'm NOt NOT saying it either.
This crap has to stop. Artist drops are now impossible. I was right on with in in my cart and everything and it sold out instantly. It has to be bots getting them.
I didn't even bother with this one today. Only 25 released? There was no way I was going to get one. Tomorrow's poster drop will hopefully be fruitful for me. I am just wanting a standard version, not any variant or anything.

Or the artists slipping them out the back door.
These are not exactly regulated securities.
It's gotta be hard to sell for $100, when you know it's gonna be worth like 15X that amount on the secondary market.
I'll tell you right now, if I was the artist, I would do it myself.

Not trying to belittle your disappointment but Ian wouldn’t do that. He wouldn’t risk future work.

Eh, only 25 available with hundreds or thousands of people trying. Simple math that most aren't going to score. Doesn't have to be bots
It's simple math.....literally hundreds if not thousands of attempts for 25. Odds are not good for the few of us who won't flip it on the bay. Kickflip maybe

C’mon there were 25 of them. Just remember that before we go full on witch hunt for these artists. Literally no one should have had any expectations to get one. I don’t know why they’d even sell such a small amount online and not just auction them off or something

You and SHZA are spot on. Odds were not high.
