It’s arguably easier than if you were at the show 

Are you telling me its easier to F5 then to stand in line for 1-2 hours at a show?.........lol.  All jokes a side this might be the easiest way to score a poster.  Maybe this could be the new norm.

Here’s what’s frustrating for me:

Using OKC for example, if the show had happened, I’d have the potential to get the OKC poster along with just those there at the show. 

Now, with with an online release, I’ve got to fight with everyone worldwide for the same poster. The fact that others now have the same access significantly diminishes my chances of getting the poster to the event that I actually had tickets to. 

Frustrating, but I totally get it. Almost makes me want to jump in and purchase posters to other shows I wouldn’t have gone to so that if I miss out on OKC, I may have some trading equity. 

Judging by how long Hamilton has been available and STL was available before selling out, you're not going to have to fight anyone to get an OKC poster if you want it. It'll be much easier than standing in line for hours at the arena.

is the silver foil Phoenix a variant of the regular poster on white paper?

Agreed. However, I was referring to the APs. My expectation is to purchase from the shop, but I still have my hopes up for one of the few s/n..

A/P’s aren’t sold in the shop.  Only directly from the artist.  Those drops are always frantic and you’re always competing against the whole world for those posters.

No you weren't. The APs have never been sold at the venue. Always online drops where you're fighting with everyone worldwide.

I love that some bozo posted St. Louis on eBay as “tour variant” 

I saw that and thought the same thing.  Also crazy people are paying $100 plus over cost for a poster that is still for sale here.  

Any actual sales at that price? I'd hope not 

Some of these prices are crazy. I know a lot of them that are listed are the artist edition, but still. And if you are reselling them so quickly you had no intention to keep them and you are just assuming they will sell. A gamble for postponed shows that no one actually went to.

Plus, what are some of these people doing? Right now on Ebay they are anywhere from $100 to $400. Who is offering it for $400 when there are plenty available on there for much less? I like selling stuff, and wouldn't resell posters because I know people really want them and can be hard to get (had a couple of my own crappy experiences), but how do you not at least take a look at the market and see if anyone even wants them?

Also, even though the St. Louis poster is the first to sell out, it took a while. Guessing most people who wanted one got one. Can't imagine there is a huge resale market for these. But who knows what people will buy.
