OK

lets say there were 1000 posters.

Then lets assume there were 5000 of us trying to get a poster.

Doesnt anyone think that after the entire stock went onsale and subsequently sold out ( * extremely quickly ) that the link / image was then removed- and there was ( as there is now & always ) nothing above the date / place book ?

this is a distinct possibility- that there was in fact no " glitch " and that the demand just heavily outnumbered the supply and that Luck was the thing that dictated if you got a poster or not .

that would mean though, that they were all in everyone's cart within like 10 seconds. have you seen that movie "gone in 60 seconds"? it would be like that, only a lot faster.

after i bought mine and checked out, i went back to pj.com and it was still under the specials section. it said, "out of stock", but the image was still there.

Bath you seem to be the EB guru here so I am going to ask a newbie question. When you add prints to your collection what is the difference between 1st printing vs. A/P print?

i have no idea.
to venture pure speculation :
AP = Artists Prints, so i assume those are the signed / numbered editions .
When i set up my page , i choose AP then the XX / XXX . If you choose artists print, you are not able to add a number to the poster .

please someone more knowledagble correct me if i am wrong.
it wouldnt be the first time I was wrong ,.. but it is a rarity !

I'm afraid this is not the case at all. Plenty of people still saw the link (even once it was sold out) several minutes into the sale. It was formally removed by Santos later on. For some reason, however, some of us never saw it at all.

they're all in peoples carts... add to cart will reappear if people don't buy

but i'll trade you mine for a Klausen DC?

sounds fair doesn't it?

nimsu8 · September 2006

i think i like it more than klausen

Bathgate66 · September 2006

i like the personal affiliation with the cranium shells ,
as well as the rainbowy feel to it, and also that square size -

but yet again too much offwhite/white . this would have been better tenfold if they just put even 1 more flat color backround- too much offwhite there .

have a feeling you are correct - no add to cart ,
but no sold out, either .

No, this is actually incorrect. I continued to refresh until about 9:04, and then figured something was up, so I opened a new IE window. When I arrived at the site in the new window, the link was there but they had already sold out.

I don't doubt for a second that those went quickly... even two minutes seems very feasible for them to sell out. But that would mean that I should have seen the link for those two minutes in the first window, since I was clicking once per second like the rest of us, but it never appeared at all.

And it doesn't mean that I believe 10c picked me in some conspiracy theory. I keep posting about it because I hope it doesn't happen again, that something can be fixed.

You can call out all the "ghosts," or claim that I don't know what I'm talking about, or tell Lou that he's delusional and this whole time he's actually been running dial up and paying Time Warner for nothing. I just hope you won't have to suffer the same fate before you start believing at least a few familiar posters from this thread. Something went wrong, and lets all hope its fixed, because if the same thing happens during the DC or Toronto sale, the Pit might go down in flames amidst the pandemonium.

listen up Ghosts... I'm BostonLou and I'm nobody around here

but I'm going to tell you how it is anyway ... this is a broad generalization (not a generalization about broads... that's something else bathgate)

I don't care how many posts someone has a stupid question is a stupid question and when the same stupid question is asked 30 times within a 5 page span it gets a little annoying.

there's a search function here...
use it...
learn it.
or
ask for info nicely
mention that you've looked around and had no luck
you'll probably still get flamed but possibly someone will help you

I personally never am question how big of a fan you are... I don't care

but I will question why all of a sudden you are here asking random questions about posters...

You're all suspect

The Ten Club sent out the poster announcement email around September 8th.

Since that day there have been 433 new accounts created. I'm sure you're all diehards who just want to get 1 poster and you've never heard of ebay. *cough cough*

i'm sure there are thousands of die hard fans who have never been to this website ... i have the luxury due to my situation... other people don't

bottom line
It's a message board... the rules say to be nice and have fun. Everyone has fun differently but we're all one big happy clusterfck family

now you know

im honored
