[*devo*]

The following was added to the main page under Duality 3:

"1 Print per Customer/Household.
EBAY’ers and EBAY Flippers are not welcomed. If suspected and caught of Ebaying prints your order will be automatically refunded and you will no longer be permitted to purchase from OBEY GIANT."

[stickee]

that'll learn um

it has obviousley work on the subliminal saturdays.............

[*devo*]

I am confused by the language. Why does it say "EBAY'ers and EBAY flippers?" Are these not one and the same or is OG also against those who buy the EBAY prints?

[polarbear]

I'm also confused by when it's OK to sell a print from your collection. Do they mean you can never sell a print from your collection, or just something from the past month or so? I want to sell my peace goddess to buy another OBey, but I don't want to get banned.

[Stone Age]

You sound conflicted.

Exactly. First, I always look for trades on Expresso Beans. This doesn't always work out so Ebay is really the only option.

I wonder what inspired this addition to the website...Yet another threat. You got to love how behind the 8-ball these guys are. The only thing that could explain their half-hearted attempts to end the flipping in the past is that the re-selling of OBEY prints on eBay or elsewhere actually increases the desirability of their prints to new collectors, and perpetuates the buzz in the art collecting community.

I hope this stops the flipping. But all one has to do is use their friends ebay account, or girlfriends. Some people list their number of the print in the auction. Stupid

Tomorrow is going to be fun!

I will not be trying for this one, but wish you all the best of luck

Any advice for first time buyers would be greatly appreciated.

It's never too early to check into rehab.

So, the law has been laid down. Was this rule in effect before now and just not laid out so plainly, or is this the first official warning? I know Shep has made reference to flippers, but I don't recall seeing any official rules laid out.

No truer words of advice have been given. Be afraid, be very afraid!!!!!!

It means if you buy from a flipper, then you are part of the problem.
Which is ridiculous statement.

About 4-5 weeks ago it was in the FAQ on OG.

Oh, ok I don't even look in that section.

[drstupid]

The latest 4(!) prints up are great, some of the best of the year. (Have we ever had so many announced at once before?) Duality 3 is my favorite but Evolve to Devolve and Tyrant Boot are excellent as well. I think today's is going to be rough. Good luck to everyone.

it's only good to know if you are flipping on ebay.... otherwise it won't affect you.

FYI, the ebay policy is in the policy section on OG:

Are you serious...you have interns to do your dirty-work!

[highbrow]

I think its a great idea when I interned I would much rather have been on the computer than getting dry cleaning ( in my defense then when I got interns I made they get dry cleaning )

[toobs]
