I can't decide.

It's nothing special in my eyes..

+ living in the U.K. And having to pay the excessive shipping costs puts me off even more.

got a question for you. not busting your balls or calling you out or anything like that, just out of curiosity from another collector.

how/why do you make the distinction of passing on the letterpresses, yet buy 5-10 copies of open edition lithos and editioned screenprints when they're released? from sheer investment standpoint, they'll still be worth about double than what you paid for them at release. I agree some of the letterpresses haven't blown me away, but they're still pretty solid, especially from a technical standpoint.

i hope they didn't mess up and list it twice, each of an edition of 450... if that's the case then it's going to oversell by 450 and they will have to send out a TON of refunds.

No luck on the iPhone from the parade route. Dang you Mardi Gras! I guess I have no room to complain since it's a paid holiday. :) I'll take that over a print drop any day.
