sorry to hear. the message you got said they were oversold.... what other explanation are you looking for?

don't mean to sound harsh but unfortunately being refunded due to overselling happens, there are no consolation prizes for the amount of time spent trying to get a print.

Me either. But I'm in Canada, so maybe that has something to do with it!?
I'm in Canada too, haven't got one yet either, I usually don't get a shipping email till a week or so after. I think they do the international orders last.

Yeah, I was refunded, obey said I ordered more than one, I didn't.

Wouldn't you know when you check out and pay twice as much, you know 45x2=90

How much money did paypal transfer to Obey, that would be a good way to know if you ordered 2 by mistake. :(
I was only charged for one. What's weird is that I ordered a sticker pack and they refunded that too.

Why are we seeing refunds for oversold prints now? Just wondering, it seems to be a new thing.

How was overselling handled in the past? Did it ever happen?

they refunded the money through paypal in the next 4 days after the sell out...
it was like :
- get your shipping notice
or
- get your refund

I happened for approx all the prints during the 2006-2007 period.

somebody posted earlier that they didn't get a shipping notice, called og and was told their order was processed and shipped. at this point, i bet you're ok if you haven't received anything but a paypal email.

If I were you I would make a point to use your paypal info to prove your case, maybe they would reconsider.

This is a hard print to miss out on, good luck!!!

Yeah, I emailed them, but still haven't heard back. I figure I'll give it today, then call tomorrow. Since they are oversold, I'm not holding my breath. :(
