The one I wanted had gone... U lucky B'stard.

Offered something off list, very nice too, but it's about £50 out my budget this month... Hmmm???

TEMPTATION.


I just know I'm going to kick myself...!

Which one did you miss out on?

[Feral Things]

I sent an email this afternoon and another this evening and still nothing. But then I enquired about a piece a couple of weeks ago and never got a response. Ho hum.

[twist65]

some really nice bits but the one i couldn't have said no to had gone (the untitled og with yellow bg, anyone get it?), gonna think about the others and kick myself when they've gone - bad timing for me with maumau show just round the corner

I guessed as much. I asked for that piece too. Sold.
That and 2008 original were the two peaches in my opinion.
I esp liked 2007 sketch tho.
Anyone here manage to snap that one up?

[G-Man]

2007 sketch was my fav too but I was too slow

[gilsteph]

Picked up the Heaven and Earth sketch and an AP. There was some really nice stuff!

and lets hope the actual fans of sickboy got in before you posted the email ad to contact....

Couldn't agree more, especially as the email even stated 'please don't share this publicly'!!

[bernie]

[Sacked...]

Good call Bernie - welcome home.

fairplay it did not say that at all. the original email said "email us to reveal our secret treasures." It did not say exclusively for mailing list subscribres or anything like that. Just email us for info. I posted so non mailing list fans could email them. Then when they replied it said don't share publicly. So myself or no-one else has posted the actual contents of the reply(s). Christ, if you get down off your high horse you might be able to read a bit better.....

[Sacked...]

Seems strange to arrange this whilst you in the midst of moving ,no wonder it's taken so long.

[blobbydon]

Yes seems to be a bit disorganised and one person sorting all the emails and people one by one.... They seem to be finding more and more bits every few hours.. How big is this studio that they misplace 30 pieces and all AP's or OGs

So what you're saying is that before the mail even had time to settle comfortably in your mailbox, which you would've received as a Sickboy site subscriber and someone who has shown an interest in Sickboy's work, and was clearly intended for you to reply should you so wish.....You posted it up onto a public forum for the whole world to see should they so wish!

Genius!!

someone wanna pm me the preview link?

Erm no thats not what i'm saying. It's what you're saying. I really don't know how to make it any clearer for you. The newsletter said email us for info. Not exclusive email for your eyes only. People post up newsletters from artists all the time on here with news about how to get prints. Because its an art forum.

sales@sickboy are reading emails and getting back to people, so they are controlling who gets what. Told Stephen that i'd posted his original email but wouldn't post info or contents of subsequent ones and he was cool with that. So no idea why you're getting in a lather about it...

Seeing you're struggling with this I'll make it clearer for you...

The mail was released yesterday afternoon to people who subscribe to Sickboy's mailing list/newsletter. I think we can generally conclude they'd be his fanbase and interested in the content of the mail supplied.

You then placed the gist of that email almost immediately onto a public forum with the mail address to contact for more details.

You're a flippers dream!

Some of the people who got those emails, as genuine subscribers and fans, wouldn't have got to read the email until they had finished work, travelled home from a commute etc.....But by then though it wouldn't have made a jot whether they were actually entitled to receive the mail directly or not, as you'd taken it upon yourself to place the details onto a public forum!

I'm not particularly in a 'lather' as you put it, I just think what you did with the timing in which you did it was pretty lame.

Counter all you like, I couldn't really care. I'm simply voicing my opinion, because I'm in that type of mood today, on a public forum where I'm wholly entitled to do that....What you won't find me doing is sharing privileged release information from artists within minutes of it being sent to specified recipients via a fan newsletter!

[twist65]

christ you're irritating.. Not in a lather?? The 20 line reply would say otherwise..
Ok then - you are right. I am wrong. You are great. I am bad. You're the best. I'm the worst.
There, since there was no harm done, no-one else gives a f•ck and i've pandered to your point of view - will you shut up now?

[R0B]

Recieved my AP today in a giant tube with a little suprise inside too. Very pleased

[blobbydon]

Anyone else still waiting for there pieces???

Stephen said it may be a few weeks before a lot of the work would ship.....it is a bit strange to do this while they are moving. Still I got a couple of nice pieces at great prices so not too bothered.

[blobbydon]

Ok cool, just that I see that someone got theirs .no biggy then
