New Mantis Print, by RBK on Jun 8, 2007 20:29:19 GMT 1, Marketing or not, it's a great piece and I can't wait to own it. Are you all saying this print wouldn't sell out otherwise?
Good point! It doesn't matter if it is SOS, Camp, POW, or someone else's rinky-dink site. The image is great and good art rises to the top.

The mantis print will be probably be awesome if the pics are anything to go by.
Pity it isn't being released by SOS if rumours are to be believed? ;D

New Mantis Print, by Strange Al on Jun 8, 2007 20:38:21 GMT 1, We're obviously all aware of the marketing power of the forum and no doubt there has been quite some hype surrounding this image in recent weeks. Who knows whether the image has been seeded on the forums as a piece of marketing??? - it's certainly done the rounds on the forums, as well as on Wooster, and so it's very possible.
Though, whether the forum was seeded or not is pretty irrelevant IMO, it's a really strong street piece which was always going to sell well as a print. And, deservedly so!

New Mantis Print, by carlito on Jun 8, 2007 20:45:02 GMT 1, classic image that would / will sell out wherever it was released..as for seeding..maybe - but really so what? the buzz on this board alone pulls prints over the top, especially when the print run is under a hundred...being a nosey so and so I'm more interested in knowing why cb was banned

New Mantis Print, by Anchorman on Jun 8, 2007 20:55:09 GMT 1, A top marketing ploy!!!! ;D
ยฃ125 inc postage - it's going up already....
ยฃ77 to start with.....
ยฃ125 is still cheap compared to everything else on the website....how long will it be before we have exclusive editions released direct to e-bay?
Then again it isn't that different really?

I have the exact same fear about 80% of all prints to be released. I'm thinking of paying someone in the UK just to ring me on my cell anytime an important print is released. Maybe pay them $10 a month to do so. I'm half joking/serious.

Dont think it was ever ยฃ77. It's always been an EDITION of 77, maybe that's where you're getting confused.

I've got to say that I spoke to frankie late last night after coming back from the boozer and he was really good about getting such a drunk mignight call from a complete stranger slobering nonsense about camp bananarama ;D . He seemed like a good bloke.

So, I've emailed Campbarbara and asked about pre-ordering the screenprint- or have I missed the bus - (once again) do you think?

Thanks fella. +1 The force is weak with this one - When it comes to online clamouring to get anything...anything at all- I basically don't. My Luck sucks.
lol
I will keep an eye on developments and perhaps my luck will change ;D
