I would've missed out on my Martin and Lewis mugs, and possibly on the three set I got, and the outrigger my wife bought for me. Which are still just notes on receipt paper. I hope they arrive safely. Given what you've said, I hope I get them. I had a great time, don't get me wrong. BUT, is it to much to ask to have the product on hand for the show? I mean they had this big ass sign up stating that the artists would only sign items purchased in house on that night. AND EXACTLY HOW IS THE PIZZ SIGNING MY OUTRIGGER?!? Maybe I could have gotten him to sign the receipt, and then taped it to the outrigger. I saw people ( at least two ) with outrigger boxes. So some were there, and at least one set of Night Of The Tiki mugs were there, as we now see them on EBAY. The more I think about it, the more I think the sales side of the night was screwed. The atmosphere, the art, the music, and the drinks were great. But damn it, there has got to be a better way, simply have the product on hand at time of sale/show. I really want my memories to remain good ones. But the more the Mai Tais wear off... TG Post script---- I must have hit the return line to get my product after you did, because the kid I dealt with was writing in very bold pen "PAID!" on my receipt. Just have some registers back there, or at least a couple cash drawers. None of this back and forth crap.
