Man I wish there were still a few more of these floating around at reasonable prices
only avail on eBay now at double+ the price plus $100 to Australia. These eBay sellers aren't even fans and ea/visceral inadvertantly have these people the deal of a lifetime by having no limit on how many per customer, should have been max 1 or 2 per customer and every REAL fan would have ended up with one, but now there's hundreds of them out there that'll be filtered out via eBay over the next year for $100's more.
I don't think this was intentional on visceral's end, but a costly mistake for the oldschool fans who don't use social media, I was calling my local EB twice a week asking for a TRUE DS3 CE with no luck, then suddenly I hear "ds3 dev CE sold out 13 days ago", devistated. Congrats to all the people who were fast, it's the best CE I've ever laid eyes on!

Mate did you not read the post by Ryan on the previous page? 25 more of these were added to the store. Get on it quick before they sell out!

MortalMonday, I would ask for replacements. My posters were rolled normally, no creases. I remember reading on this thread that they made more than 5000 of some of the items (Ex: Posters, Cards) because they couldn't get just 5000 made. Ryan himself made a post about it. I would definately message him and ask, should be no problem to get free replacements. I understand you're pissed, I would be too, but unfortunately shit does happen .

The problem is that I keep getting defective stuff from Treehouse, and I don't want them to think that I'm a nuisance when I keep asking for replacements. This just sucks any way you look at it. I've asked for so many replacements. Just last week they sent me a replacement for the jacked up Mass Effect Homeworlds book they mailed me.

If they send you replacements all the time, they realise it's their fault, and/or want to make you happy. Either way, don't feel like a nuisance to them. Treehouse seems like a company devoted to customer service, especially Ryan who I can't thank enough. Ask for the replacement(s) and know you're in the right. This box was specifically made for collector's (ie: Us here at this forum) and it should be mint condition, period.

Yeah, I'm asking for replacements for sure. This is a picture of how they were packed. I'll take a picture later of the actual posters out of the tube so you can see how badly they're damaged.



The posters were the one thing I was looking forward to most too (I'm a sucker for videogame-related posters.) Damn shame.

Yeah, that's definately not what they are supposed to look like (stating the obvious).

i don't think you were the only one though, i spotted a listing on eBay where the listing stated that they were listing it for $250 instead of $300 as posters has "slight creasing"

No, 25 more will be added in 4 hours and 52 mins. And this forum is the only one to know about that. I suggest anyone who wants a copy or an extra, be on the gear.ea site as well as this site 15 mins before they are supposed to go up.
