congrats to all who scored. i really need to brush up on my skills.. i think doh4 was the last print i got
it seems to me that to call an achieved work 'good art' and an unachieved work 'bad art,' is like calling one color 'good red' and another 'bad red' when the second one is green.

don't get too excited. the earliest # i've seen is 2014x and you had 20599, that's 450+ prints sold.... which means it's either a run of 500 or it oversold by a decent amount.

I made it pretty smoothly through PayPal and back, but once I got to the "Submit" button, it was a slow death. I clicked "Submit" and then I just kept refreshing over and over again until it finally expired from my cart.

Sometimes, I'd go from "http://obeygiant.com/store/payment/payment_cc.php" back to "http://obeygiant.com/store/cart.php?mode=checkout" and see the "Submit" button again, so I manually pasted and clicked the previous page to refresh hell.

Ugh.

I'm guessing everyone either made it through the same hurdle or didn't.

Looks like it's off to the secondary market for me.

And IMHO, I'd rather go through scheduled drops, instead of spending all day in waiting.

Times like this, really puts the sting into collecting Shepard's prints. Only the strong survive, huh?

Quick Strategy Question...I got my token coming back from paypal, but could never get OG page to accept so I kept refreshing the Token URL, but it didnt work. Are you not supposed to keep refreshing the token if it doesnt work the first time?

If you go to "http://obeygiant.com/store/payment/payment_cc.php" and nothing is being submitted to the server (it's not asking for permission to "resend"), you're just wasting connections and bandwidth.
