I have no idea what's left.  I'm assuming not much, though, and everything will be gone within seconds.

If that.

I find the challenge of scoring prints without using Twitter quite the rush. Here's hoping you get in before the server meltdown! thumbup

I'm usually pretty good at this, that is, when I really want something.  But I already got what I wanted out of this batch, so whatever I get, if anything, will just be fillers.

Well I'm looking for a Snow White and Winnie the Pooh, if you want the extra challenge. I'll even throw in a 10% "you're awesome!" bonus. ;)

I think the print run for WtP was only like 300-ish(?), so not sure if there will be any left, but I'm hoping.

If anyone is not going to try a pump and dump with the prints today and wants to go for an assist, I can use someone to go Whaling, I am not even going to try for them today as the hunt is on for the bigger fish, but I do still want to add them, but not at the stupid prices they are gouging people for already.

I don't believe in the pump-n-dump. I'll see what I can do. Any will do?

Missed my Winnie the Pooh because the damn link was broken. WTF? Anyone else have problems?

Specifically, the redirect on the page "www.mondotees.com" results in 404.  :'(
To that I say poo. Not pooh, but POO!

Sorry, I guess I could have bought it for you, but I didn't know if you were on it and I didn't want to get stuck with it since I don't really want it and I never sell.

Completely understand. If you had scored one, I would have bought it from you, even if I won one myself. That's the risk I take and I would honor it. It then becomes my problem to unload it. Appreciate the thought.

PS - you never sell? ;)

PSS - Come on, Snow White!

Trust me, I have a lot of extra stuff I could sell tomorrow, and for good money.  But I hate the whole shipping experience.  I donated some posters a few years back, and it was such a hastle to put them in tubes, write a label and take them to the post office that I decided not to do it anymore.  Not my thing.

Completely understand. And then what happens if it gets damaged en route, etc etc.

I was actually part of your last APF donation, so thanks again. thumbup

You're not the only one. I've had 3 make my cart, 2 make it to Paypal, and 0 completed.

I don't understand why it always needs to calculate shipping! It's $15!!! Proceed, dammit, PROCEED!!!

I wish I could do it again, and maybe one day I will.  I probably have at least 500 posters I could sell or donate tomorrow.  But it's really too much work.  I don't know how Dale does it.

Well, I didn't get anything.  The only one I could have gone for was the blue B&B, but I decided to go on my morning hike instead.  It's too beautiful outside.

And Mike, you can probably get SW for $80 on EBay.  So not that much more expensive.

I had no idea Mondo released that many prints.  A lot of that print run was really sub-par, IMO, but a few were great (the ones I bought, that is ;))

Quite true. At this point I'm thinking I should have gone on a hike instead as well. :)
Enjoy the walk.

I think the cart system that they started using last year sucks balls.

Since it was implemented, I haven't scored any print I was trying for.
I was at work today. So I couldn't even try, but it sounds like it was a waste of time anyway.
