wikipedia my friend:
In United States history, carpetbaggers were Northerners who moved to the [{Southern United States|South]] during Reconstruction between 1865 and 1877. They formed a coalition with Freedmen (freed slaves), and Scalawags (Southern whites) in the Republican Party, which in turn controlled ex-Confederate states for varying periods between 1867 and 1877.
"Carpetbaggers" was coined from the carpet bags used as inexpensive luggage. It was originally a derogatory term, suggesting an exploiter who does not plan to stay. The term is now standard and is used without derogatory intent by historians and reference works. Since 1900 the term has also been used to describe outsiders attempting to gain political office or economic advantage, especially in areas (thematically or geographically) to which they previously had no connection.

There was much much better work by Faile available at SG.
The reason for the quickly growing popularity of Faile is undoubtedly down to the news of the upcoming LAZ show
and the inevitable rise in prices that are attracting all the carpet baggers.

I didnt see any Faile I liked at SG, maybe i didnt look hard enough. Some of the stuff on their own shop was quite cool but sold out too quick. All that was left was Charles and who wants to drop ยฃ150 for his mug? It will be on our money soon enough anyway

We are both talking about the same POW right?
No offense intended, but it'll be a while before they get their shit together.

Perhaps this is POW's new business model!

I reckon the refresh crew will move from POW to this forum. Managed to bag one of the three faile's tho so this time it's worked in my favour.

Maybe it is people ordering 2 or more of the same print, by the time POW have seen that even though 2 different cards have been used, they are going to the same address / billing address they stop the second shipment and hey presto, a print is back in the loop for someone else to purchase. Better POW are doing this rather than selling 20 identical prints to a single buyer. IMO

I'd love to believe that POW are that well organised - unfortunately I just don't think they are.

From what I read, it seems that if someone adds one to the basket then doesn't pay for it, it's up to POW to manually check these and release 'em back into the pool. As and when they do this, more become available. I agree that it's not ideal, but what else can they do? They oversold before this update. At least if they're underselling there's a chance for us all to get the prints we want before we start feeling flush on t'ebay, or am I wrong?
