The Taxali pieces are amazing. I would easily pay $100 each. Maybe they'll end up on ebay!

Looks like it was a great show. Too bad I was out of town and missed my chance. Hopefully they'll keep the show going next year.

Limit was 1 piece per artist per person, so as many as you want, but only 1 by a particular artist.

Are images of all the pieces online somewhere? do you really think taking photos of 2,000+ pieces and putting them online, even it's "in store only" sale, would make ANY sense?!.. there are bunch of photos of the show around, but nothing like preview or something like that... |

I've gotten several of these from prior year shows. When they go online, you are only given the option to pick an artist and they will select one of the remaining post its for you. It's a grab bag but it's worked out pretty well for me. I've gotten the Taxali peice a couple years ago online since it was a 3X6 post it and they offered it separatly since the price was $100. If I remember right, last year's selection went quick once they hit online and I wasn't fast enough to get any of the artists I wanted.

So are these actually on "post it's"? I'm wondering about how that will hold up over time. Anyone have any idea? I'd imagine some discoloration over time, especially from the adhesive. For $25 it's a steal, but I'm anticipating an aftermarket and wondering what I'd pay for one if it won't stand up for years.
