Platinum Club / Diamond Club Rumors....

Post by TheOmethod »

After receiving multiple inquires, I want to put all rumors about this topic to bed.

There is no such thing as a "club" ,"subscription", secret "membership", " secret hand shake" or " hand signal" that will get you any further in the standard print releases.

I can't believe people actually believed there was one..... I bet those who thought there was one are the same who buy Mr. Brainwash prints :)

Guys, it is possible that perhaps those responging on this board aren't aware. But I don't think the comments of nothing existing are completely true. I know for a FACT that there is a "club" that lets only certain people in (people with ties to Shep, website owners, gallery owners, etc) and that there are members on this forum. I know that they sometimes get headups to print releases before the general public. I don't know all that goes on, but in general I believe that it is really just a separate forum with a memebers only policy. BUT, DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE THAT THERE IS SOME SECRET SOCIETY THAT ALWAYS GETS PRINTS EITHER EARLY OR SET ASIDE FOR THEM. I SURE AS HELL DON'T.

Pretty obvious this guy has a "platinum membership" or even better -he's got multiples of every print for sale on ebay. So you guys are just trying to keep this hush-hush-wink-wink-nudge-nudge or what?

I bought my Elephant from that dude for a crazy flipper price...
I got nervous I was gonna miss out, and that was the only one that was buy it now..
There was only 1 other one up for bid at the time.

I dunno what is up with that guy.. he gets everything.
The name on the return address for my print was different than the paypal info.
Multiple accounts?

Ok, Ok heres the deal, send me a $100 and I'll send you a gold card with backend access to the OG site so you can search for drop times and direct links. $1000 gets you a platinum card which basically gets you one print every drop day for the rest of your life. You will also recieve a secret decoder ring and Big Proof varriant print :mrgreen:
I can't believe this is actually a thread

I've also heard that there's a UFO behind the Hale-Bopp comet and if you kill yourself while it's passing by you can catch ride to a better world.

Why go and ruin it for the rest of us. All you're doing is tipping off the flippers on this and all of us true fans won't be able to get into the better world. Nice going a$$hole, why can't people just keep their mouths shut.
