Eelus • Where They'll Never Find Us, by cmodart on Jul 1, 2015 3:52:40 GMT 1, Inknart - could someone pls explain what's supposed to happen? Between 2am and 5am what time zone? Trying to get my print on, but this is too much trauma and drama for me. Why can't it be like a phlegm drop? Go ahead and miss the drop and get one on the secondary, haha

Maybe he thought he could get more exposure? as AR are certainly milking the cow on this one, i think i have already had 3 reminder emails from them reminding me to register. Good luck to those that really want one ON THEIR WALL.

I'd really like to get one, but this release is driving me crazy. Even an exact time for release would have been great, but thinking i'm going to be sitting here at 230am refreshing my computer for 2.5 hours is just inconsiderate. I'd really like one, so i'm going to stay up all night because I don't want to pay upwards of over triple for what people will flip it for. |

Very disappointing release..

I agree.
I have had the pleasure of getting double AR emails for the past 2 years.
Why couldn't they have said from the beginning...
We will be releasing the print at 3pm GMT.
That would have been too easy, right?
What a redonk operation.
Not so 'translucent.'
Ps- I hate that word!
I'm not going after this, but for those that want it, good luck!

Eelus • Where They'll Never Find Us, by cmodart on Jul 1, 2015 5:18:26 GMT 1, it's all cocked up for sure. I'm on a few lists, and i get early opportunities to buy some artists because i've spent money w/ them, but they usually have enough sense not to email everyone ELSE during the whisper phase, and piss everyone off with this stupid "register to get an email to try to buy one at the drop".
Why wouldn't the release at least be late afternoon so the US people can have a prayer? Or maybe they don't care. AR have botched it, and seems like the artist may end up suffering a little over it.

Probably because it was painful to organise and ship his last edition. Imagine all the emails he had to reply to , returns etc.

May be the reason. I haven't had my Paradise Lost edition bought ten days ago

'Remember....registration closes at 9am (GMT) on Wednesday 1st July. So if you haven't already registered, do it now - as the prints will only be available to those who have done so and there will be NO DIRECT ACCESS to the works from artrepublic.com.'
I believe 'NO DIRECT ACCESS' says it all. So how can the HF prints be sold and its not even 9am yet !
How to P*%$ off customers in a couple of easy steps by Art Republic !

SO..if anyone gets the link early i would greatly appreciate it if you could PM it to me after youve purchased

It's amazing to me how many people are complaining. Getting a print is pot luck anyway with popular artists. Maybe the number of prints getting flipped from the states on other releases has had an influence?

This afternoon we have been testing the BETA version of our exclusive Eelus print launch ‘ Where They’ll Never Find Us’.
We noticed that you attempted to purchase a ‘test’ print. However the actual launch is not until tomorrow and unfortunately we were unable to complete your order and have refunded your card. "

AR should of been a lot more transparent from the start tbf but they obviously think the way they are releasing it the correct way so who are we to say otherwise.

With all the interest, there is no way the honest buyer will know if all the HF's have been pre-sold and as soon as the gun goes they 'miraculously' sell out in a microsecond.
But I'm happy to be stood corrected if Im wrong.
