That won't happen. There was a limit of 2.

That is unless Treehouse changes the way they've doing things for a long while.

Well there is a guy on Ebay right now with over 10 of them on pre-order. Either way, They haven't even finished the process and they are watching themselves be profited on over 5x the original amount. I am sure they aren't farting rainbows at the moment. It's obvious they have the initiative but they were not as ready as they thought they were.

Then you have proof that regardless of whatever checks and balances you put in place to stop people from profiteering, they will find a way

The Skyrim litho was most certainly limited at 2 a person and I think they should allow at least 2 as some of my friends don't buy online but like this sort of thing, hence I can get it for them.

Now the Dead Space 3 Dev Team edition, that was a fiasco as it was setup for resellers basically

Edit: Just realized, perhaps the first half of skyrim lithos weren't limited to 2 a person?

That would explain a lot....

Yes and perhaps 1 is too little, Maybe I over exaggerated a bit. I think 2 is fair, But they are realizing people are willing to pay 250 for them and noone has them in hand yet. And the way to stop being profited on 5x over is to drastically higher the prices in the first place. Instead of $50 fee next time, It shall be $200, Or at a high enough mark where even after they have sold out they have no way to be profited on 5x over, the market wouldn't call for $1000 litho. And having such a high mark at the beginning will have more opportunity for people that really admire it to get a hold of it because they wouldn't sell out quite so fast, which in turn less would come up on online auctions because the collectors won't let it go.

A high price and really admiring something aren't relational, someone who can only afford $50 could love and admire it as much as someone with no budget but the high price just excludes a large portion of the fan base.
