My guess is you will submit a credit card, they will somehow verify it exists, and then the lottery will occur and they will give the winners first right of refusal to purchase. And there will be tens of thousands of people in the lottery bc of the guaranteed resale profit. It will probably make life for POW extremely easier, while make it extremely harder for 'real' (however you define that) fans to score a print.

New look for POW site, by Run Pig Run on Jan 11, 2007 18:25:56 GMT 1, I spoke to someone at SG who said once you have entered the lottery you will committed to buy not given an option. I reckon the whole thing is a crap idea and it definatly won't stop people putting them on ebay straight away. I think you'll get less people who actually want a print ending up with one. The best way I can see is release them 100 or so at a time through the website and in selected shops like the shop flags was released in, in bristol.

I like your idea bombhugger, although for selfish reasons, I think they should all be sold from a quiet village shop in Devon, that way it'll take quite a time to sell out.
