@Cleangone...if anyone forgets about the drop, they weren't that motivated to begin with. I hear this a lot..."I always forget about the drop, so can I buy the art now, before you drop it?"
Andy/Cleangone
1:28
That's why my demo had email and/or text notifications that a drop was starting soon if a person signed up for them.  Just sayin...

i do like that this system seems to let the website run really fast. I’ve never had any trouble loading, except perhaps when I’m refreshing and only a couple pieces of art show up at the drop, and I have to refresh once or twice more to get the rest of it to load.

@Felix... I do enjoy speculating about the prices and then comparing when they come out. Nice little parlor game to see if I have a feel for that artist's market at the time

hey at least the site holds up on these drops. i used to try for custom vape mods and the site wouldn't even load up but everything still sold out in seconds
Andy/Cleangone

@felix - 100% true

I think there’s a disconnect with certain collectors (not disgruntled) that reps/dealers owe us collectors something besides good service. They work for the artists. It’s not a community service.

@jasonk 👍

@casey a - I do that too. Often watch the drops even with no intention of buying. Hobby spectator sport!
Casey A

@JasonK I think everyone who has been trying for a PS5 in vain is nodding along with that last comment
Andy/Cleangone

@jasonK - were those mods sold by black diamond?  I could never get that site to do anything.  :)
Felix Lu

@Andy...that's weird, because that's a Bill Cox site, too...
Jacob M
1:30
@caseya @reba I do the same from time to time :)
JasonK
1:30
@andy lmao
Andy/Cleangone
1:30
@Reba - YES - a big part of my pitch was felix could stream the drops like a sporting event, and people could then rewatch on YT
Layer a media company element over the existing biz

I'll def watch drops that I'm not going to buy anything in.  Just to get a fee for prices.
Mike Cichy

The drop is always at the same time and always the day after the announcement of the drop. I don’t see what the problem is.
Morgan

@Reba watching the drops at 3am with no intention of buying... that’s dedication!
JasonK
1:31
@andy fantastic idea
Felix Lu
1:31
@JasonK is a content junky, he'll watch anything lol!

Black Diamond is bill cox?  Wow - I wonder if that is recent.  My tries were probably in 2019
Felix Lu
1:31
Yeah, he wrote me to tell me he wanted to copy my site lol!

I got a cool piece from Black Diamond once.  Jorge Fornes X-Men cover with Colossus & Juggernaut.

@Felix Hey Felix.  I know this is a crystal ball question but im curious what you think of ECCC Dec 2-5?  What are the chances?  I sure do miss conventions
Felix Lu
1:35
@Tobin...I would say a good chance, if full rollout of vaccine happens by summer...
But I don't know if we'll be doing it yet. Might not do any shows until 2022...
Matt Todd
1:35
Amazing
Reba
1:35
@dan t yeah prices and a sense of which ones went first etc. Which ones could I have got even without setting the alarm cos they lingered...well it's an obsessive hobby!
Dan T
1:35
Is Ultramega going to be an ongoing or limited series?
Felix Lu
1:35
@DanT...good question! Actually not sure, lol! But I think limited?
Lambo
1:35
Wow!
Reba
1:35
Oh. My. God
