Wait, is that yours? Did you get a golden ticket? (Pre-emptively hating you.)
Edit: Oh wait, I see. Man, that's just mean of them isn't it?

Nice! Can I rent space in your flat file? haha

I just bought one recently on craigslist for 100 bucks. 4 drawers, all deep and huge. Sanded it, and painted it orange. It's now our coffee / board game table in our more formal living room (the man cave is more of the watch TV room).
anyways, it's pretty sweet. I'll try to post a photo. slightly worries me to know people have drinks on it, but we're sealing up the holes in the top and keeping the top drawer pretty light in terms of what prints are in there. also got Glassine on top of every print so the extra layer of protection makes me feel better.

At SDCC, he put them on sale Saturday afternoon for 200 and 250.
The next day he dropped the price to the 150/170 and refunded folks who had paid the day-before prices.
I still think they are slightly too expensive at 150/170. The regulars don't even (or just barely) command that secondary market. Gorgeous prints though
The Time Machine/War of the World prints are hot though.
Gotta get it first. Some engineering firm is closing down, and liquidating. They want $150. I'm trying to save a bit for the next month considering this awesome amount of hopefully-short-term debt I'm going into to become married. So hoping $100 works. It's hard to pass up if it does.
Nice! I'd like to stick this one in the living room, but was shooting for the corner. If we could repurpose it as a table in the middle..... It might fly. And yes. Photos.
I was totally going to post that, but got REAAAALLLY lazy
EDIT:
Yeah that those prints are awesome. If you havnt' seen it, he made a video showing the time machine being made:

No. Follow him on twitter. https://twitter.com/tragicsunshine
He will tweet a few minutes before he drops his posters. Usually something along the lines of "so and so will be up in just a few minutes." Then you start F5ing =)
Well, that's what he usually does. Likely he'll do the same thing this time around.
I accidentally left out this very important info:

total dumb luck, really, just happened to see him when leaving on Thursday or Friday. And then just happened to have my number pulled. I didn't even have a choice of the four prints as I was picked fourth, but still got Empire.
I'm scared this is going to create a need to track down SW and ROTJ tho (kinda like Mononoke made me finally bite the bullet on Totoro)

Would love that Iron Man one, but the price...
I now have the Dark Knight Rises, and the Bourne print. My walls finally are starting to get some character.
I just have no idea how to frame them. I usually just to a cheap Target black frame. I don't have the money to spend $100 framing.

check out american frame... you also really should do some sort of framing that has: spacing (you don't want the prints touching the glass), UV glass (if it gets any light at all to protect it), and acid-free backing.
Framing is definitely not cheap, though you can DIY for a lot of stuff, and still go matless while making sure your prints are protected.
that said, even I have some cheaper stuff or S&Ds that are in cheaper frames. Though I've tried to migrate everything in recent years to more archival type set-ups for long-term protection

Oh thank god. It's been too long. As it gets closer I'll have to listen to 1-6 again.
Still annoyed I didn't realize how popular those posters were back then. Really wanted that Help poster.

Yeah I was one of those people who always considered grabbing one but never did. This was back when Olly was "That cool guy who does the A Life Well Wasted prints"! Now we have to contend with crazy people haha. It's been what now? Two years? We definitely need a new episode of that and Out of the Game as well. Both awesome podcasts featuring Robert Ashley!
I am a proud owner of two of his ALWW prints. Here's hoping he's got another one in him. Either way though, I'm just happy another episode is on the way.

Just saw this. Awesome news. One of my favorite podcasts. Glad I picked up those posters when they were first released, some of the asking prices for them are stupid expensive ($400+ for Gotta Catch Em All?) I still remember the pain of missing out on the first printing of Help and the relief upon hearing of a second run.
Edit: No affinity for the film, but that Notorious print is very nice.
Edit, the 2nd: Man, Tong really pushes the prices up there on his APs. Means his Super Lab will probably be $150 or so. Damn.

So the site will show shipped but it doesn't actually ship until the site shows a tracking number? The site has shown my TDKR print as shipped for a couple days but doesn't show a tracking number.

SHHHHH
I'm kind of going off of the fact that my old orders have the tracking number in the order summary, where as this one doesn't. Mine has also been in shipped status for about a week, and I haven't seen it yet, or got an email saying it is shipped like I normally get.
It's definitely possible that it is on its way though, and they just had to do stuff differently this time because of the volume

Skipped Ironman, but I think I was able to get War of the Worlds and The Time Machine.

I can't get the damn page to load. Any tips?
Both Iron Man's are sold out already, if that's what you're after.
Totally had my IP blocked today because of Check4Change. Had to use my phone to access the site.
Would suck if Mondo wised-up to that. I thought they might have because page monitor kept dinging yesterday, but I think it was just being "special".
I was on my way back to the office from lunch, when I heard the twitter noise from my phone. Glanced at my phone at the stop light, and then immediately pulled into a gas station to feverishly try to get the set with my phone.
I have an order confirmation from PayPal for the H.G. Wells set. So, success?

A Kickstarter, but still pretty interesting: Ukiyo-E Heroes
The goal is to make actual woodblock prints out of them starting with Rickshaw Cart.

Yeah, I got/have the first one (The Death of EGM) and decided not to get the rest of the series. I was an idiot.

It's possible that E.T. The Extra Terrestrial Artist Proofs will go on-sale tomorrow at 2:00 PM EST here: http://danmccarthy.org/news/00.news.html
No guarantees, but if you want one, it might be worth checking.

Yeah, I wouldn't even know what to order on there for a frame.
I have no idea on any of it. Just black frames? What matting? Do I even need matting or do I put the picture close to the frame?- Status
