It won't be till the end of the month, 465 prints to ship first!

The Stats for last week were quite insane, this was just from yesterday.

ok so get ready for a beejoir, banksy, and dface release while im away! this could turn out to be the worst best holiday ever!!!

You knows it.

I'm at Glastonbury from next Wednesday so expect some action soon after

DD

my money is they release Festival while we are at Glastonbury...its so obvious

[buddings]

yea! i hadn't thought about that. i love the festival print!! maybe its good i didnt get a glasto ticket

[corblimeylimey]

Maybe POW should have a stall at Glasto ;D you can imagine the trouble in keeping your print dry and clean, let alone keeping it safe and not losing it ;D

[themightyreds]

email notification of a specific release time the day before it happens is probably fairest for all.
That way you've at least got time to figure out how/when to get to a machine to order from.
Does mean a bit of a battle to get them though, whatever the release time is....

It's also nice to get a good description and images of the prints being released before-hand too.

btw. i'm off on the summer hols soon as well so be prepared for a flood of unexpected new releases while i'm away!
;D

somewhere between 3 -5pm uk time, but I think that it is best not to announce an exact day or time.

[RBK]

Whenever it is 10am CST - therefore all the people in the US have a shot (West Coast will have to be up a little bit early) - and it will be afternoon in the UK so most will be happy. And definitely during the week - otherwise lots of people won't go outside during the weekend!

[paulypaul]

Will you have a way of making payment immediately for this one, or will it be emails? If the latter, really doesn't matter when because it's going to be 'names out of a hat' Paypal invoices.

[carlito]

i'd have thought with emails its fairly easy to see who mailed first and therefore who gets the print - online payment system especially if the system is flooded is a lot more names out of the hat.... i.e. see last morons release

[dave313perry]

Hey carlito! Im not so sure e-mails would be a good solution, judging from the recent release from SOS, the way that certain people were having e-mails that bounced and missing e-mails etc. I think a payment system is the way forward, just a way more capable one!!! with a far more capable web-site. Im no techno geek but im sure its possible, but probably at a price which POW are keen to avoid!

you could do paypal time stamps just like obey used to.

[carlito]

I'm totally clueless and really should learn to keep my mouth shut lol... yeah payment system defo the way forward - altho i guess niether system is fool proof unless dosh is thrown at

[bobbyt23]

I think if the demand is high enough both systems are floored because the servers cant cope. Like Carlito said you would have to invest huge amounts of dosh to make it last the onslaught!!

[carlito]

Beejoir's figures make some pretty mental reading..when you realise that was on a day when nothing was for sale!

[bobbyt23]

I would love to see the figures for the day the recent prints were released. I think they would be ridiculous.

[carlito]

as a small cocern its certainly testament to the quality they produce to have so many scrambling for their prints

[dave313perry]

As much a testiment to the quality of the content IMO, although recent releases have upped the stakes a little in quality, handmade paper etc..

Actually, I could see that happening in a strange way.

Like Curly said they could release Festival over Glastonbury w/e and I could see Banksy's crew just setting up a rogue stall selling 3k prints for fifty quid just for a one off stunt.

Mind you, chances are I'd probably still miss out and end up ruining the w/e!
