Apparently, this guy's sold one pre-order for the Tali, Wrex and Thane lithos on ebay already, but hes selling a second:

I asked for a deal because if don't ask you don't get ;)

He said "make me an offer" so....I've got one on the way anyways - but I know when they sell out, they will go for more....what to do?!

How nice.  However much I wanted a particular lithograph, I wouldn't buy from one of these "litho touts" on principle.

If ever there were a reason for a "one per customer" rule...

Not that I am selling my set of lithographs, but if you were, wouldn't you wait awhile before you sell them? If anything, the value of these collectibles will increase as Mass Effect becomes more popular; like after the movie releases.

I'm guessing that some people are selling the lithographs before the remainder of Tali/Grunt/Thane lithos are sold on the Bioware Store.

When are they being sent out from BioWare anyway? Any exact date?

Indeed. If ever there was eminent domain to restrict sales to 'one per customer,' this is it. Basically, now the folks located closest to the bioware server will get first serve, and they can just buy 1,000 pieces at once. :( Bioware store really ought to revise their policy.

But, yes, much as I want a Tali litho, I'll die first before I'll buy one off of these litho touts.

The charge has been applied to my credit card, so they should be shipping in the next couple of weeks.

By Litho Touts are you reffering to those Ebay sellers who set absurdly laughable prices?

Anyone have any advice on puchasing these things?  The middle of novemeber rapidly approaches and i dont want to be caught with my pants down, so to say.

It's not absurdly laughable when you see the money people pay for them. :P

Yeah, i'd love to have a litho. It'd look great framed and on a wall by my bookshelf, even to those who've never played the game. Alas, they're just priced too high where ever I look. :crying:

Any news on the second chance to buy a Tali litho yet? It's getting awfully close to 'mid-november'.

This is absurd. I'm positive he was fishing to see how much he could get with no intention of selling.

I've seen that a lot on Ebay, especially with limited edition books and stuff : people see something rare listed and automatically assume it's no longer available elsewhere.  Expensive assumption to make as they often end up paying several times the price they could've done otherwise.  Though it's not always obvious where "otherwise" might be available, I suppose.

Its a shame they'll be overcharged like that. You'd think for them to be a fan they'd check the original site first...

As much as I'd like to be smug, I can't claim to have never done the same thing myself.  Happily the offending item is now worth much more than I paid for it, though more by luck than judgement!

Well it's December 1st, and my order still hasn't shipped. Am I alone or are other people having the same issue?

They have stated that they will ship the first week of Dec., hopefully they will be shipping soon. Looking forward to my Grunt litho.

To my knowledge no ones order has shipped yet, just have to be patient.

they said Dec. 1st not the first week. I remember either an email or the order form saying that.

Allright, thanks for the info.  I hear that getting UV resistent glass or equivelant will help protect these.  Any idea where I can get this, and how much would it be?
