The listing for the mugs is # 10. The mugs displayed at the event were # 12. The seller must have gotten them someother way. How sad, the people (like me) that truly want these items to add to our collection have to wait in line and are extremely lucky if we are able to make a purchase. But the people that want these items just to sell on ebay always seem to have a grip of them. I just find it odd...a little discouraging too.

Yeah I know. I do know that there were some of the Pizz Outriggers on hand. I saw two people carrying the huge box. By the time I got to the head of the line, it was; "we'll ship it to you" city.
Again, it would be nice if there were an alternate run so that people could get this stuff. I understand the clamour of the limited run, and how it is good marketing, but...

Since the event is moving on to palm springs, would it have been so difficult to have half the run of each iten on hand? Thereby ensuring that the folks in Palm Springs get some. But those who make it under the limit should be able to walk home with the product in hand.

I want recourse if the baffoons at the post office break that Outrigger, or the Shag three set I bought.

If I buy it, and drop it on the way home, I can live with that. But if I open up a box of ceramic shards, that will truly suck.
