I tried to buy two! I know, I am greedy and terrible. Several of the ones I thought were appealing were already sold, but I still found many I liked, and tried to buy these:

Cyclops on Mountain (http://secure.giantrobot.com/images/art/kochalka/45_kochalka.jpg)
I guess I won't know for some days if I succeeded on one, either, or both. I know I should've saved the money but, well, I was feeling a litle like babying myself after last week. :)
Don't get me wrong I really like both of these and hope I get at least one. There were several others left I really considered as well (trying to buy two was pushing it though... I wrestled with, was I making selections I'd be happy with). There were some I wasn't as into....
Now if I get one I have so scrape up the money to afford framing. :) I need a girlfriend who owns a framing store.
how come you won't know if you succeeded in buying them? they are usually pretty good about keeping the stock up to date online. if they took you money, i think you got it!
well when I bought them there was some advisory I may not have succeeded, then later on the American Elf message board I saw someone say they bought one, then later post oh no actually it wasn't available after all
I haven't heard anything yet so, hoping I succeeded
I am tempted - not financially but if I had the money - to buy a third since my idea for framing them (they are tiny) is in some frame with 3 'die cuts' or whatever in it. I sort of want 1 or 3 but not 2. Is how I'm thinking right now. Maybe I am crazy. But I can't spend another $60 and am not sure what I would want to 'balance out' in any case.
If I'd had $240 it would've been fun to buy the James / Amy / Eli / Spandy in flowers and have those framed together since that's sort of the 'cast' of his strip.
