I made a bad judgement call today waiting for the wood variant. I think I could have landed the regular and variant and then gone back for the wood. It still worked out okay for me as I got the poster I carted

The actual answer, which I got straight from Mondo, is that their licences are granted based on a (typically) small ES' which will have limited profitability. What I gathered from their explanation was that if they were able to garner larger profits the licences would not be granted or be too expensive to acquire. They also went onto say that they do have a vested interest in keeping the collectability high.

Best solutions I have are to establish a Mondo 12 who receive everything Mondo makes and only accept orders via fax.

If you know what to do you will never miss a poster when they go on sale on Mondo's site, you just have to know what to do.

A person should not have to sit at their computer on a business day for up to a couple of hours constantly hitting refresh to only have a fighting chance at a piece. There are a few informed members here that got totally stone walled for the last two weeks. This comes from a guy who actually got what he wanted this week to boot (crapped the sheets last week tho).

I personally feel like a tard after half an hour or so of watching my kids forced to entertain themselves on a precious morning off so I can "f5".
