wait until after all the silverware is cleared from the table and her drink is empty.
Probably several drinks. :wink:
he did say lunch.

Could always go for the mickey route, wait until she's unconcious, ask, then shake her head yes for her and be good to go.

no harm. no foul. Just tell her all those drinks and the hot summer weather musta put her out.

wait until after all the silverware is cleared from the table and her drink is empty. seriously. No threat of fork stabbing or water tossing then.

Done Deal.

"Thank You! We Appreciate your Business!
Your Order Number is: 4610"

I had to take the "Birthday Present/I'll sell a couple pieces to pay for part of it" route.
But, it worked.

$896.
Oy.

So, watch for a couple prints up for sale from me.

I'll post some as soon as they come. Maybe you could split a set with obey_giant_1984? Hopefully they put the sets back up for sale.

Weird. If the cart out-of-stock method works then there are:

48 Good
49 Bad
20 Sets

Which doesn't add up if 40 sets sold in the first release before the "sold out" button was displayed.

I see - thx. I guess it would let you order 48 Good, 49 Bad , and 20 Sets and then they would have to issue you a refund.

I would if we lived in the same town. With cost of shipping to me, it will end up being the same if not more $.
