I'm puzzled.
Why post them at a BIN, seemingly knowing one person would buy them all (prior notice?). Should have saved us all time, do a private transaction, and make a lot more money.
Why give a huge cut to ebay and Paypal?
I love Erin Wells, but this stinks.
Given that the 4 pieces were her items to sell, not sure any of us have a right to be critical as to how she chose to do it....
OR... someone could have seen this thread... and kept refreshing their browser every minute or so until they popped up.. knowing they would come. I started doing that myself right away.... given how much people want an IT original this doesn't shock me. Kudos to the chap that had the time and thought to do so. I envy him and his new found gold

Webstar1000, thank you for your sensible comment.
I obviously underestimated the response these would generate. I figured the BIN was high, and thus not a "gimme" at all...if I had had a better sense of the market, I might have set it higher--people were watching this closely.
Best regards,
Erin
As much as a person may have wanted one or all of the items, it was mentioned at ~8:56 am that the items would go on sale "this evening". I perceive evening to be 6PM.
Kris, as "sensible" as that comment may seem, clicking refresh every 30 seconds for 7 hours isn't "enjoyable".
ESW did what she wished, and that was her prerogative. I had no interest in bidding, but there are other members here who did, and for them I feel a bit bad as they come here to the site and often we have advance notice of things. I guess in this case we had advance notice, but when the BIN bids comes in 30 seconds one after another, after posting, someone either refreshed very very quickly, or they had even more advance notice than people who were watching this thread.
I'm all ears. Please enlighten me with you conspiracy theory?
You clearly are, otherwise you wouldn't be so bitter about the situation.
So why comment?
What I find "disrespectful", is your accusatory tone and the insinuation that Erin has done something wrong without any evidence whatsoever. This thread is supposed to be for celebrating Erin's work, not spouting petty nonsense and making spurious allegations. Either put up or shut up!
Dear DT Members,
I'm so sad to read all of this discord. I assure you that the way I do anything--no matter what it is--does not arise from disrespect for anyone. Thank you for your support over the years, and all you do for the Haven Foundation...please don't speculate or argue any more, life is too short and these drawings aren't that important.
Don't worry about it Erin, certainly don't be sad ... this kind of discussion happens on here all the time. You sold 4 drawings at $2K+ ... damn good for you!

It took me less than 2 minutes of investigating the eBay buyer of those 4 pieces of artwork, to discover that it was a well known and respected member here who had purchased them.
Perhaps simply asking that member how he was able to purchase the artwork so quickly, would have been a much better way of handling the situation instead of accusing Erin Wells of some sort of wrongdoing?
Just my 2 cents worth.
