I really hope the release is more straightforward than last time. I also hope the price has not increased.

Retna • El Salvador, by caniray on May 1, 2014 3:35:10 GMT 1, The eastern realm print was like $800 on release? I think it was $800
I just thought it was fucked how not one person here got one on release,
Okay maybe we all are slow and have bad luck
But I've seen a few for sale that are matching numbers, or the person got both color ways!!

Retna • El Salvador, by freezy on May 1, 2014 15:07:57 GMT 1, This print is going to be released in person only. Or at least that is what they are stating at this point. I also imagine that they will only let you purchase one. If anyone wants to bring a friend and pick one up for me... Let me know. I will make it worth your time. Send me a message if you are in LA. I could hook you up with a NYC release, or I have a ton of stuff to trade...for some help. (Obviously I will pay for the print too)
Good luck to all.

Retna • El Salvador, by brownbuffalo13 on May 1, 2014 16:14:06 GMT 1, Eastern Realm was $600 from source.
some more photos
The print colors are an ode to the Salvadorian flag. I think these prints were to be released in El Salvador and in person only as well but i assume that fell through and probably why the print will only be sold in person in Los Angeles. I think these are also smaller than the Eastern Realm prints. According to Instagram it will be sold at some point next week. Having Salvadorian orgins myself this print is a must for me to give to my parents.

Fuck him, fuck them. When you start to think you are bigger than the art, you lost it.

Also...people who did email were offered "AP" sets of the $600 prints for $5,000. The whole thing was really shady and poorly handled. Left most people on here with a sour taste for the artist and the gallery.
I will never buy a Retna print again, this guy is a dick! Maybe I am not informed of the side story for why he is looked at so poorly... care to fill me in? The method of his last release through 13 Press was changed at the last minute (supposed to be a cart system, and at drop time changed to an email the gallery and we will take it as a first come first served system)...most likely because all the prints were sold to family, friends and VIP before the actual drop time. When people questioned the release and what had gone down on instagram, Retna got real hood and started calling people out (note foodrap is a great member on here as well as documented Retna collector and owner of a well respected sneaker company)...see image below: Also...people who did email were offered "AP" sets of the $600 prints for $5,000.
