I hope it's just a fund-raiser, and it will be back to the $35 range soon.

Is this a permanent price increase, do you think?

This will weed out some flippers for sure.

Could be, the only reason I'm gonna try for at least one is, I haven't had any luck picking up any prints from OG yet.

Well, I already figured PE was going to be at least 50... I wouldn't surprised to see a lot more.

I can see $50-$65, but I hope it's not $85.

I dont have any Shep prints yet, and I am going to pass on this one.

Good luck to all of you who are going for it though. Hopefully for you it wont be such a mad ordeal.

I am sure it will be permanent. Infrastructure upgrades aren't a one time expenditure. Most of the cost of software etc. goes in the way of services and support. If it was just once, then it might solve the problem now but eventually they'd run into the same issues down the road.

If they were part of duality, i'd think they'd be called Duality 3, 4
or they could be numbered 1 and 2 and be a series of pairs.

and if the price increase is permanent, let's hope for some 3+ color ink prints becoming the standard...

these prints are actually called

OBEY Billboard (Eye) &
OBEY Billboard (Consume)

I didn't have the correct information at the time.

So Weston, I know this is probably a dumb question, but these are non-Duality, right?
