Ugh, that's frustrating.
This was definitely a cool promotion, and while I missed out on all of them (I don't have a job/schedule that lets me be ready to jump at any given moment) I loved most of the designs and the whole idea was super cool. I'd gladly buy a couple of them through an official venue -- the Splinter one in particular. But scalpers are a damn plague, and it stinks that some jerks were able to snap up several and then sell them at inflated prices.
I hope most wound up with actual fans, at least.
