I suppose while speculation is one of the pillars of this forum, rarely is a print introduced this way. Anyway, off to the Laz invader thread.
hope you don't have luck I am incredibly lucky, but I was just noting the language of the OP, "similar style to Drink Crude Oil that was released in February, which among his recent releases has been fairly popular / expensive on the secondary market."

I could see how it would come across that way, but I wasn't trying to promote speculation (and certainly not flipping). Was just trying to illustrate that it was a popular recent print.

New Fairey Print Release 5/2, by Iqra'a on May 2, 2017 18:53:16 GMT 1, I was helping a friend secure this print and managed to successfully check out. However, my friend was also successful. That being said, we now have one more than we actually want. So anyone who wanted this release but was not fast enough, just reach out to me via pm and I'll send it your way (once received) at cost.

New Fairey Print Release 5/2, by surge on May 2, 2017 21:11:19 GMT 1, Heard from Shepard's Instagram comments that this print release sold out then few minutes later went back as available. Personally I think the best Shepard print of 2017 is still the 'Church of Consumption' and can't believe his 'Drink Crude Oil' print goes for double the original cost on the secondary market. Then again the 'Demagogue' print was a little mismatched/perplexing combination-- bottom half of presumably Trump's face with text of the name of the print on top of the image, and then a name of a random band at the bottom--BOOM you got people going loco on the secondary market.

Church and Drink crude were two I tried for and missed them both ๐. Demagogue I feel only really is relevant and popular because Trump won. It wasn't looking like he was going to at the release and wouldn't have really remained relevant had he lost.

Obey has a strict anti-flipper policy so I really hope no one there thought I was a flipper and refunded me because of this post ...

I doubt it. Reselling to other fans at cost isn't what they mean by flipping.
Speaking of, I missed out on the print as well and am trying to secure one for a friend who wanted it for her first Fairey print (and also got the System Error refund email). Anyone interested in selling or trading please PM me.

New Fairey Print Release 5/2, by soupy on May 3, 2017 19:28:04 GMT 1, refunds are going out. it was oversold due to a system error. the refunds are not due to any sort of secondary market reselling (at least not for this print release).
from order numbers i have seen...... it appears as though orders above 369XX are the most at risk.

New Fairey Print Release 5/2, by dani on May 3, 2017 22:11:09 GMT 1, I'm not advocating this (because I don't want to be responsible for any breaches of terms of service, etc.), but it seems one way to combat flippers on eBay would be to make a bunch of dummy accounts to buy up all the prints. Tell the sellers you're going to pay in a day or two...drag out the process...make them report you to eBay. Then do it again with a new account once they relist.

New Fairey Print Release 5/2, by NYart on May 4, 2017 0:44:21 GMT 1, Considering the size of the release.. ~10% immediately on the bay isn't too terrible I'd say? I feel other artists end up with a higher percentage than that half the time. Hope you all survive the refunds so far so good here with #366XX.
-Btw what's this I'm hearing on EB them saying obey refunds alphabetically by last name? Are they just trolling lol?

New Fairey Print Release 5/2, by Daniel Silk on May 24, 2017 17:04:58 GMT 1, Do people think Shep has much involvement in the design of these prints over the last few years?
I just feel in the past maybe 5 years he hasn't really produced anything of the quality and imagination of his early work, so has he run out of inspiration? Or does he now just get other designers to churn out these prints?

Even on a cynical level he'll be signing everything off...in fact, quite literally.
