Any idea what your convention schedule is like?

I wouldn't have minded them popping up online but I haven't bought them online yet so can understand why others might not like that

Unofficially, your best bets would be Quakecon and PAX Prime....

It's an awkward situation, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I want more people to have a chance at them, but I don't want them to be less special than how they were announced. I like the idea of sitting on them for a while and then doing something fun with them after everyone thought they were really gone forever.

I'm going to be a dick and really make everyone here understand that if they want to call something "exclusive" in the future, they need to be prepared to stick to it. I think our future "* Con Exclusive" ideas are going to be renamed "Convention Exclusive" so we can still bring them to other shows here and there if there are leftovers.

Yeah I would be pissed if you put them on the store considering I paid a fortune on eBay for a set - as in my eyes there was zero chance of actually ever getting them, ever....

Well if you had inside info you could sell them on eBay quickly... but I think they shouldn't go on the store as there were supposed to be an event exclusive.

It's perfectly fine. If it's exclusive to X convention, collectors complain about it, if you put it up on the store, collectors complain that this is not exclusive anymore.

If you or a friend can't go to X convention then buy the prints on ebay and deal with it.

That's my issue with this process... if a company like treehouse has an exclusive item meant for a convention, then there should be a strict stipulation that if you get said item you cannot sell it online. If it was meant to be sold online, treehouse would have sold it that way directly.

But there's no way to enforce that

A little late to the discussion but just wanted to say Kudos to you Ryan for putting up a "fight" for integrity. I think the solution you've listed is the best considering your situations.

Just wanted to recognize your efforts - wish more people/companies would keep these type of things in mind when making claims - if your word isn't your bond then what good is it? Wish I had seen this thread earlier - but I'll definitely be on the look-out for the ES:O things going forward! Thanks again!
