Any reason they do not number or tell how many of the Moonlight? 

Global Citizens gold edition backlash

Can someone explain this one to me.  I didn't hear of such controversy.

It was supposed to be very limited edition (I forget how many) but they oversold it.  Instead of canceling the extra orders they just increased the size of the edition and included an extra print as a bonus.  People were rightly upset that they oversold it and increased the edition size from what was promised at the time of sale.

Thanks!  All you had to say was transformers.  I didn't realize that was the poster for GCF.

By pure flippers I meant people who could give a shit about the band, I think most people buying and flipping are fans

I hesitate to say who does what, but I was in the merch line early both Friday and Saturday at Ohana Encore and most around me were definitely fans and it was fun being around most everyone. That said, hardly anyone bought just one poster. Now, they could be getting one for a friend or someone on here or whatever. You never know and I do mostly respect that. But at the end of the day, how many of those people, even true fans, were keeping two for themselves? Some. But you know many were selling, too. To each their own. 

I've had good luck getting what I want. Twice I didn't get a poster I wanted. Once a fan I met in line to get into the venue gave me his. Once I said screw it and paid an ebay price (it did say part of it went to charity, but, really, who knows?). I didn't get the devil surfer shirt at Encore because they didn't restock them from the first weekend. Other than that I think I've gotten what I've wanted. I also have waited pretty early in the merch lines a few times, but it has been a lot of fun with other fans so I haven't minded. And many of those people probably flipped some stuff. I wish people wouldn't take up inventory for those who are there and want stuff, but for the most part it's within the rules. 

All part of the fun and experience. Being in line, meeting other fans, hearing their stories and of course the show itself. I would like posters limited to one each, but not sure that will ever happen. 

I bought two of the skull posters and an extra zippo in hopes that I could trade for a festival poster.  So far I've struck out horribly

Fingers crossed, but I have a feeling I'll miss out because of a work meeting that will probably run long.

I remember sitting in my office when the Transformer AP’s dropped and scoring one on my phone. I involuntarily shouted out “yes!” when the sale when through and had 3 or 4 people poke their heads in to ask what was so exciting. 😂

I got it all the way to cart and checkout (3 click screens) before it said sold out. Oh well. 

Saltzy23

I mean, it's literally impossible to be any faster than I was.

It was gone before it even hit the shop! Holy crap that was fast.
