@ jamminpearls: ^^ It's a serious argument because the reality is that their servers CAN'T handle it. Whether or not they ought to fix it so that 50,000 people can all land on the site at once to battle for 100 posters in neither here nor there. It is simply the case that this is not currently possible, and therefore an email to everyone wasn't an option (but also would be stupid for other reasons anyway).

If he is just now, today ready to ship, they could have emailed and announced a sale anytime this week. They didn't have to say go on sale right now, because he is ready... That makes no sense. If he's ready today, doesn't mean they have to go on sale at the exact same time.
Also, 9 am Monday morning isn't exactly a random time. It's likely that is when people arrived to work for the week. That gives me the feeling that 9am Monday was the time they PLANNED to go on sale. Why not let people know when they make those plans??
psst..its expensive,,good u missed out..will get it later..soon..for 30
I already have it, just felt surprised that we weren't informed.
No more arguing too happy for all that!

I would imagine we'll have a chance to buy non-signed posters at a later date for a cheaper price. Probably for $35 - price at the show.
35 is usally the price at the show..30 at the shop
is how was so far
Even better!
"There's a $10,000 bill in it for you."
"Oh yeah? Which president's on it?"
"Uh, all of them. They're having a party. Jimmy Carter's passed out on the couch."
It's not like they all the sudden decide today at blank time was the moment. I don't care if everyone gets the email at the same time. There's been many of days in the past this could have been sent.
the artist using the shop for the sale.....isnt 10c sale..its his sale..
oh boy..why is really that hard to understand it?
It's the 10c site isn't it? If me or you wanted to sell something on the 10c site would we have to ask permission? And if they said yes we'd let them know when we'd wanna do it. Point is they knew and instead of letting there faulty site crash they did a surprise sale. I don't wanna argue, I just feel this was BS.

and im not get crazy ,especially about a poster that its the same and its more expensive cos has artist signature, idont care about..and means nothing to me..
30$ ios the best price for them..shop will sell them

Sound Garden and the Queens of the Stone Age calling, please pick up my latest albums and listen.
Good things come to those who wait...I remember a couple of years ago when the 3-disc PJ20 DVD sold out quickly and people were selling/buying them on eBay for like $300...I was like, "Screw that, I'll wait to see if they ever re-release it." And they did, a year later, for like $30, and all the people who bought them on eBay were MAD!
I have a feeling that more of this poster will be released at a later date.

It took me 10 seconds to get this today.

That's the ten club and their servers fault, not the paying members fault.
so..200.00 memebrs get the email..for 100 posters???
can u imagine what will happened?
and what company sents 200.000 email and arrive all the same second??
and who said all will go normal and not to spam folders?
come on..cant happen for 100 posters..when will have normal sales,with plenty products they senting a email,we have the monthly one about news and merch..
random sale of 100 s/n posters cos the artist dont have his own shop,i think,was normal to do it random
I normally agree with ya D,but I couldn't disagree more on this topic. An email should have been sent out. Were all paying members and if there servers suck then they should fix them. If an email went out and you didn't see it in time shit happens. But to not know at all is BS.
I love these random sales. Rewards the lunatics, self included, who sit here looking all day. Anyway, MOST people, many in this thread think its OK to buy this merch and flip it immediately for other merch. Somewhere along the way this became acceptable.......
I can understand the difficulty and logistics of sending out 200,000 emails and alerting flippers..
But how about at least a thread post from Santos on the Porch giving people a heads up a day or so ahead of time. Yeah some people will miss that too but at least more will become aware of the sale rather than waking up monday morning to find they are already gone.
But then again it sold out in 10 min during a surprise sale, so if more were aware it would have sold out in 10 sec and more people who had been ready to get this would be upset.
I take solace that this was just the AP sale and they will most likely have standard versions up soon... Hopefully in a more fair, organized way of obtaining.

If only we had a way to reward the lunatics when it comes to tickets... oh wait, we already had that... it was called "F5"!
You'll find this board is full of hypocrites, they think a lottery for tickets is fair, but a lottery for limited merchandise or venue entry is crazy talk. Then to your point, people go on and on about merchandise flippers, but think it is OK to trade something they didn't really want for the merchandise they do want. The same people love the lottery because "it's fair and get tickets in to more people's hands" then instead of selling their extra to someone who got shut out, they trade it to someone else who got lucky and get two shows. They've now got two shows, many have none.
What it really comes down to is most people are just selfish and want what is best for them. Sure they will claim it is about fairness, but don't walk the talk consistently.

U guys really like this? I thought that besides the trading cards that the Wrigley merch kind of sucked.
Had this in my cart and absolutely could not pull the trigger. Probably the nicest of the four posters but they were all disappointing.

I think this is a great poster. The other three are growing on me.

I personally really liked the Emek poster most as soon as I saw it (and got it!), and it seems like i am in the minority on that one, but this one is okay. Kind of cute.... I think cracker jack is gross though, yet got a bag at Wrigley just out of storm delay desperation, and the "prize" was this really tiny stupid badly drawn sticker of a catcher - wasn't even as high quality as a bazooka Joe comic. I was pissed. So I am biased against this poster; reminds me of that shitty bag of cracker jack with the crap prize.

Just take a deep breath and think about how all this stuff regarding merchandising is way out of proportion.
Enjoy life and enjoy the music!
Wishing all good luck with any upcoming sale.
exactly... fuck these greed grabs
Not to mention many posters. Check my ebeans for trades:
