$122.50
The Stormhoek Techcrunch lithograph finally sold on E-Bay for $122.50.
Wow. That's a lot. I was excited enough when the bidding passed $50.
I was really happy when people attending the geek dinners were liking the prints. But for them to be considered valuable in commercial terms was not something I'd thought too hard about. I saw them more as like "Objects of Sociability". So this was TOTALLY unexpected.
Wow. This is very cool. I am so happy. Seriously.

Posted by: randy edmonds at September 5, 2006 3:07 PMDo you happen to have any other prints available for sale? Usually I collect screenprinted concert posters, but as a daily reader of your blog, I think that a gapingvoid print or two displayed on my wall could help give my apartment that "Web 2.0" feel.
