Gotta say I'm kind of bummed at the (relatively) low production volume for the festival merch. I definitely understand limiting the pop-up items (Earthlings Ts, rug, sherpa jacket, sweatshirt, etc...) But I was just looking for a medium T-Shirt in one of a couple different designs. We got to Ohana weekend 1 on the second day, and the two tents I checked didn't have any mediums left at the end of the night. There were no restocks the next day. A friendly fan from one of the fb groups checked tents for the following weekend and couldn't find one either.
I'm sure it's difficult to predict how well things will sell, and no promoter/merch company wants to be left with a bunch of inventory nobody wants. So kudos to Mr Tsurt and all involved on successfully selling out of pretty much everything. But it's still a bummer to not have a festival T... and based on the number of ISO posts, there's still lots of demand out there. For the non-limited items (or I suppose less-limited is more accurate), why not offer a limited run after the show at a markup? Take orders for 2 weeks, print exact quantities needed based on demand, and ship. Unless there are supply-chain issues which would cause the post-festival orders to displace more lucrative merch from being printed, it seems like a win-win.

Mrtsurt says this is how the client (Pearl Jam) wants things done. So maybe complaints on merch availability and “merch scalpers” should be addressed with ten club. It shouldn’t be hard to get the merch you want.

Its sucks that the official Ohana website couldn't have secured more items for their online sale today.
There are supply chain issues. Not easy these days to get apparel made and shipped in a timely manner. Are you all really surprised? Its PJ and some fans care more about the merch than the music. The merch lines early on Friday were insane. Were the merch stands were open since Thursday? Not surprised that all mediums were gone by Saturday night. I was able to get a purple zippo on Sunday around 2 pm, which was surprising.
Arrived in the U.K. today only 18hrs after being posted. Looks great
Glad you got one! I scored at the festival and it's one of my favorite posters.
Thanks. Was an unusual year as IMO the two festival posters are better than the PJ/EV ones which isn’t usually the case. I do really like the Meggs one though

Agreed....I was able to grab the Meggs at Ohana. Got an AP VW poster and will get the tiki on ebay. Great posters.
I skipped the Ames PJ poster...not that I don't like it but I am having poster collection issues (too many)
