So I was a little late to the party but I have finally finished my mass effect/dragon age lithograph collection. Image IPBAt least one of each of them all! - at least until they decide put more on sale! Image IPB

I did have a curiosity/clarification question though - I wasn't able to find confirmation searching the forum. 

For the first time, I had to get a replacement for a damaged "The Team" lithograph. I destroyed the damaged one I got and sent pictures into Treehouse - great service as always with the replacement litho. I was wondering if the destroyed lithograph number gets reproduced/resigned?

I'm just wondering if the runs of 500 (for example) are actually a slightly lower number, say 475 because some had to be replaced due to damage during shipping.

As a side note, it was REALLY weird tearing up and destroying a lithograph; even a damaged one. I REALLY felt bad doing it!

Yes they set aside a number of the ordiginal 500 for replacements. There have been exceptions inn the past where they had so many damages they had no choice but to print more to replace them.

Right, but do the original numbers get reproduced and then sold again afterwards? Or are they destroyed never to get the count back to the original 500?

Chem - these are trade secrets never to be revealed. :) We hold back 50 lithos at each release for replacements.

As far as I know - and Ms. Domino can correct me on this - the only time they have re-printed and re-signed lithos was for the Normandy release. There were a high number of damaged lithos due to new packaging that didn't quite work out as planned. Beyond that I believe every other damaged litho has not been reproduced.
