5 Obey prints sold on ebay in one month... lolextremeimages77 wrote:im buying war by numbers hopefully...maybe i wouldnt have to sell a print to do it if prices where not so high...as for my other auctions in the past...they were mostly bought from ebay anyways so back they went...and all my auctions start at 99 cents so its peoples own decision to bid these auctions up....sorry to anyone that considers me a flipper but its a long cold winter here for a landscape designer...my prints have kept me and my familys belly full and helps pay for heating oil...so if you think im wrong for doing it then i really dont care....i am a collector who is selling the prints i wont hang and selling the ones i paid rediculous amounts for on ebay...and i have offerred them here before selling them...there are a few people here that got great deals from me on some recent prints if they would like to speek up thats fine...so again im sorry...to anyone that thinks im just a flipper not a collector id be more than willing to show you some pictures of my walls and my portfolio...shep is just a small part of my collection

Yeah, I would email them and make sure they didn't skip you or something.spagucci1 wrote:I'm kind of getting worried because I have not recieved my delivery confirmation yet and people whose confirmation number was higher than mine have recieved theirs.
Re: New Print: Obama Offset Anticipation Thread
Thanks for the advice! I just emailed them. I totally forgot that I had bought stickers with this order. I hope I get my delivery confirmation from obey or at least hear from them soon!Autodactyl wrote:Yeah, I would email them and make sure they didn't skip you or something.spagucci1 wrote:I'm kind of getting worried because I have not recieved my delivery confirmation yet and people whose confirmation number was higher than mine have recieved theirs.

From today's NY Times:
Hot Demand for Political Gear in a Hot Race
[...]In some cases, the demand has also led to an increase in prices.
For example, a limited edition print with Mr. Obama’s face and the word “hope,” produced by Shepard Fairey, a graffiti artist, originally sold for $25. With all 600 sold out, the pieces are now going for as much as $1,500 on eBay, Mr. Fairey said.[...]

Believe that.

Received my print today, numbered below 180! I love the print. This is my first print direct from Obey so I am wondering about the shipping process. The tube I received was fairly large, much larger than any tubes my other prints were shipped in from sellers or artists at concerts. The tube wasn't "squishy" as I had seen it described in another thread here. There were two sheets of craft paper and it was rolled tight enough to give enough room so that if the tube had gotten damaged, the print would have most likely survived. So has Obey changed their shipping or am I just naive and lucky?
PS, there was no monkey pod in the tube.

How do you know what number you'll get by the shipping confirmation? You can find out the edition number, or are you both talking about something else? Just wondering.ptd.gwb wrote:finally got my shipping confirmation and tracking today. my number was in the 580's. super excited.

I always like seeing what number I get, but if I could check before I got it, I probably would.

GULP. My order number was in the 12650's, and I'm really worried that for whatever reason I'm not going to get one of these beautiful prints. Paypal/OBEY has already taken the money out of my account, so I'm hoping the "If you paid for it you'll get it," will stick.
