Heads up. There are currently only 10 copies left of Riley and Ellie. So if you really want to be sure to get one, don't wait too long.

Hey all, new to the forum and have searched the boards here for a bit. I have used the Google and the eBay to try to find two pieces of art for sale but no one, anywhere on the intertubes has either piece for sale that I could find. So, these boards were the only thing to really show up on the search so I turn to those of you who keep up with the board here.

This thread is one of the two I am going to bump because it is these two that seem to be the most active of the numerous threads here. So, the question is does anyone have either of these two pieces of are for sale? Do any of you know anyone with either piece that is looking to sell? Just looking for some options. The two pieces I am looking for are:

A New Day = https://www.candb.com/en/artwork/556...ughty-dog.html

and

Crows = https://www.candb.com/en/artwork/553...ughty-dog.html

Thank you for any information regarding either of these pieces.

Have those prints become rare or something? I still remember a little while ago C&B had such a hard time selling those that they ended up putting what they had left on eBay.

No idea. I actually just came upon them this past week which is ironic cause when the game came out, I played it, loved it, but didn't do much else with it. I played through it again a few weeks ago and it had a different meaning to me. (Played one difficulty up and was just as scared as before)

Anyway, I have no idea when they sold out of them but I ordered a couple of the ones on the Cook and Becker site (haven't gotten them yet) but these two stuck out.

No idea how long they were up there before selling out. Sucks to be me for now.

The two you're looking for were the only two I purchased. They're really nice pieces. A member here, LoneWanderer (IAmTheLoneWanderer) has been selling off his collection which include those two prints, you should give him a ring.

I'll look him up for sure. I'd like to have one from each season. They have one with Joel at the University, which is nice, but I passed on it (there are many more so I can wait). The two I mentioned would fit the seasons nicely with A New Day in Spring and Crows in Summer.

Unfortunately, Crows and A New Day are really sold out. We don't have anything left of those anymore. If we did have something still somewhere, of course I'd be happy to sell it to you.

By the way, we don't use our Ebay to 'dump' stock

We treat Ebay as a search engine. That's our main reason to list items there. A lot of people that look for video game related items are on Ebay and we want them to find us there and migrate direct to candb.com. Other than that we use it to test the waters for promotions and we analyse the stats on popular searches for which Ebay is interesting. You'll see prices on Ebay are pretty much in line with our site anyway.

We would never drastically cut the prices of our items (most we've ever done is 15% I think) just to sell out. We know over time most items will sell, sometimes slowly (and we're fine with that). If one of our contracts end, and we have an artwork still in stock, we just delist it and will never reprint it. Which is better for the collector because if you had that item it is now even rarer.
