    Regular Mark5 AP still available 2 1/2 hours after it went on sale.

    Crazy. Especially because it is 1) arguably the 2nd best print and 2) fairly affordable for an AP.

    Can't believe the A/P mark5 is still available! Though it makes me extremely happy to see the flippers struggle.

    This shocks me, even with 300 prints available.
    While this is a REALLY good poster,
    I think it's the playing card theme keeping it from selling...
    it's been done a few too many times the last few years!!
    Did this one sell out at the venue??

    Easily available. I agree with Dave on the playing card theme. I also didn't like the colours. That being said, I grabbed one at the show anyway #onceaposterwhorealwaysaposterwhore

    I hope there's a matching Wrigley print, even if the card idea has been done many times before.

    Four hours and still not sold out of the Mark5 regular AP. If you want one, better grab one. Shocked it's still available.

    I'm not surprised. Auctions for show editions are ending at $35-45. When prices are that low, some people just don't care about a signature and would rather get it cheaper somewhere else (plus the sig would be upside-down for people who wanted to frame it with the 5th on top).

    I agree. I have no interest in getting a non-variant AP unless it is the cheaper way for me to get the print. I don't really care about the signature.

    It was my second favourite print from Fenway after the Thomas one (ISO)...

    Got the green monster from Ames the other day, so probably it for me for Fenway, other than the Thomas print.

    The Thomas poster is even more awesome in person! I can't believe how my bf scored one. We were at the main merch booth outside near Game On, just standing there, when we see someone walk by with a Thomas. We ask, 'holy crap, they still have those?' And the woman said, 'Be quick, only a few left!' So we race in there, and my bf asks the guy for the Thomas. The guy has no idea what it is by name, at the same time he is thinking, another merch lady grabs the last poster off the board, and my bf is (seemingly) SOL. So he's pissed off, I go to get ice cream, and by the time I'm done with that, I look in the window of the merch booth and they found more Thomas posters, and my bf walks out happy. Pure dumb luck--no lines, no waiting. What a roller coaster!

    My ranking of all the Fenway posters:
    Thomas
    Mark 5
    Tristan Eaton
    Shuss
    Ames Green Monster
    Ames Jackalope

    Tempted to pull the trigger on this. Was able to get the Thomas and the Eaton at the show, and pretty sure the wife would kill me if she sees another tube at the door in a few weeks.

    That's why you get them sent to work ;)

    samjam, I agree with your rankings spot on...actually maybe Jackalope over Monster, just cause I used to collect Topps cards back in the day, so I appreciate what they were trying to do. But either way the bottom 3 are a long distance from the top!

    Totally agree, the first 3 are light years (no pun intended!) better. Not much of a poster person, so didn't pick any up, but if I was, I'd gladly grab one of those 3.

    Haha light years eh? I was able to get two out of the 3, but despite pretty good efforts in lines, the Thomas still eludes me. But... I, believe in, miracles (haha, couldn't help it!)
