Steve Powers 🇺🇸 ESPO • New York Street Art • New Release, by Finsbury on Mar 2, 2012 15:04:50 GMT 1, Seriously? No one has taken delivery of the second batch yet - It has probably just fallen off the tracking. A little patience wouldn't hurt. Totally agree with you on this, ling. Can only shack my head at that sort of behaviour with the constant posting and moaning even with being told that it is just a technical issue with tracking which usually doesn't effect shipping...
Oh get a room! Blue skies has already been mentioned as landing in the uk so fair enough that people are concerned after no movements. I contacted usps and they havent even mentioned any tech problems with the updates.

In the same boat with you, my tracking doesn't work either. Using the forum as tracking...with the first run being delivered at the moment it will be another week for one of the second run if you are also waiting for one of those.
Steve is a great artist and always there for concerns so if it will be a problem he'll sort it out. But if there actually is no problem yet I personally would not bother him. Just a matter of respect for him as an artist and person.
Seems he's got enough trouble with this release either way though...

All i'm saying is- give yourself and steve a break and wait longer than a few days after it's been sent before debating wether your replacement will be an A/P or not...ridiculous.
Keep digging that hole for yourself, asking if steve will issue APs is a fair question when these are for prints lost in the post. How about following the thread before posting comments ?

Steve Powers 🇺🇸 ESPO • New York Street Art • New Release, by sal on Mar 2, 2012 19:29:30 GMT 1, I've been trying to stay quiet on this, but this thread is really getting out of hand..
I really wonder what's gonna be the final score once dust settles?!.. I mean, how many prints were ACTUALLY damaged, or lost!?... 13 pages were written here, mostly by people worrying what to do with their possibly damaged print, or should they get AP or a replacement for their print that they didnt even get yet.. and the few that did receive damaged one, confirmed that Steve handled the issue with no problems at all... meaning, there is NOTHING to worry about (except that you wont have it when you hoped for, but if you're over 6, you should be able to handle that amount of disappointment)..
Steve is NOT a gallery, but "one man business" that tried to make some money on a print that everyone was ready to "do anything for" since 2006... he even made 2 different colorways so he can make more people happy, and keep the edition to 50 as the original one..
only 30 days ago, most of these people would "do anything" to own this classic piece, and one month later, they are ready to sell it cause they lost interest due the things being said here/long waiting time/print possibly being damaged/shipping costing more than they expected/having to pay tax/etc... what the hell?!
seriously people, please stop spreading panic, wait for your print, and contact the source if you're not happy with what you got.. it's really not more complicated than that.. as for the shipping taking ages, that does happen sometimes, it sucks big time, and I doubt there is much that anyone can do about it...
good luck everyone, and sorry if I was to direct..

We all see 'markings' on the print, not 'variations'. cheers HB Wow. So much fuss. Dont expect him to produce prints for that price ever again after this. Some people are so clueless to print processes.
Your dancing avatar with a Big Head was clearly an apt choice.

a forum is for like-minded folk to share common experiences. In this instance there were several shared experiences. Delayed prints, inconsistent printing and - notably - Steve's sorting things out. I don't see tons of people wanting to sell. All I see is people discussing it. Which, after all, is why we're here.
We're a big, happy community. And we love the Steve-meister to bits.
Now, where's my tracking reference...

However it comes to near £100 which means the vat is 20%. Do I have to pay it and claim it back or just chat to parcelforce? Plus if claiming back does anyone know how to do this?

Second colour way out for delivery tomorrow and customs charges were only £15.65 for me. Result.
Hopefully the lower customs charge doesn't mean the customs agent hasn't been messing with it to see if it warrants the lesser bill.

When that's happened to me it added a couple of weeks to the delivery time and a notably different tax charge in comparison to others.
The varying customs charges and delivery times do not shock me as a result and i'm suprised they shock the more experienced members here
As previously stated, pay and claim it back. You'll end up paying about a tenner + parcelforce fees.
On a side note ? My espo turned up shiny, creaseless and with no Tax charges but i'm lucky enough to have family in the USA. Whom I had it shipped to, they rolled it into a PVC tube with $20 value on it. Turned up in 3 days via international priority mail.
