Surely that should read October archive sale! Not May.

Here's the full email:

Just some quick observations: Obviously, based on the URL and subject line, they reuse email templates and had planned to do this in September. The key FAQ below has been in almost all of these archive sale emails, but it has not been accurate. They've often staggered releasing posters throughout the initial launch day and into the following days throughout the 3-day sale window, depending on the total amount they have to offer. Also, several people have noticed that prices will change (decrease) throughout these sales, mainly for prints that may not have been priced correctly for the market or due to attempts to clear out inventory.

Will all the posters be put up for sale at the same time?
Yes.

Either way, I'm thankful for the opportunity and a chance at these gems!

FAQs

When is this happening?
The sale begins Tuesday, October 8th around 10AMish PST, and wraps up end-of-day on October 10th.

Why May, it's October?
Because of conflicting tour schedules, we skipped the archive sale in May, so we're making up for it now. We also skipped over September, so expect an upcoming September archive sale.

Are these reprints?
No. We have carefully maintained a stored archive of each and every poster we've ever created.

Are you offering all of the posters in your archive?
No. Only posters from shows that occurred in May will be for sale. And not every poster we’ve ever designed will be available.

How many are available of each poster for sale?
At least one.

Will they be at original pricing?
No. Pricing will be at or near market value.

Should I get in touch to complain or haggle on the price?
No. Go outside and enjoy your day. So will we.

Are these legit?
Heck yes! The posters are all from the original run/edition. After looking around at what's available in the market, we see a lot of fake signatures. This is a chance to buy directly from the actual artists and guarantee authenticity.

What kind of condition are the posters in?
Everything available is in mint or near mint condition (unless otherwise noted). Keep in mind that even though the posters have been carefully stored away and treated with the utmost care, they are all hand crafted items. Because of this, they are often a little bit unique in and of themselves and a little different from each other. We find that to be a beautiful thing. We've worked with dozens of different printers over the years, and each has their own style, ink and paper stock. That said, we won't put anything up for sale with dog-ears, creases, marks etc... and if we do, we will make a note of it. Otherwise assume it's in M/NM condition.

How long will the sale last?
The sale will last for 3 days or until the posters are all sold out. All of the posters will be made available on the 1st day of the sale around 10am.

Will all the posters be put up for sale at the same time?
Yes.

Does this archive sale include t-shirts?
No. Right now this is poster specific, but we will be releasing more older tee designs over the next few months.

How will the posters ship?
All will ship fully insured in a sturdy tube via whatever premium shipping service you chose.

How long until my poster ships?
Please allow 2-3 weeks before orders are processed and begin to ship. You will receive a shipping notice when your poster is packaged and ready to ship.

Will you offer returns?
No, we will not. All sales are final. All shipments will be fully insured against any damage that could occur during shipping,

Can I cancel an order I placed by accident or that I changed my mind on?
No. Because this is a short sales window of 3 days, if you buy it, it's yours. To ask us to cancel after isn't fair to us or other people who are interested in the poster. Please make up your mind before you buy.

Will you ship outside of the US and Canada?
No, we will only be shipping archive prints to the US and Canada at this time.

Can I combine multiple orders?
No. In an effort to expedite orders and stay organized, individual orders will be shipped as such.

See ya Tuesday!
