First, my apologies for not announcing in advance the date and time of the "Summer Storm" print sale today.
Second, we are on for a second go-round. Ken Tanaka and TOP will offer 50 more prints starting on Saturday, July 10th, at noon Central U.S. time, and keep the sale open for five days or until the 50 prints are all sold. The prints cost $155 for U.S. delivery and $175 for international delivery. Shipping is included in the price. You can read more detailed information here, and the details will also be repeated when the second sale is announced on Saturday.
Third, please tell everyone you know in Chicago!
Mike

Mike,
I'm currently living in Suzhuo, China my home for 6 months of each year. And yes, I too was sound asleep when all of Ken's prints were sold. I have not participated in your other print sale and clearly don't know the ropes. Soooo, please tell me what damn button do I need to push to make sure I get a print of the " Summer Storm"? It will be a U.S. delivery and I have a PayPal account.
Thanks for your help,
Stan

Stan,
Please just check back here at 12 noon Saturday U.S. Central time. And I'd help you figure out what time that is in Suzhuo, but unfortunately my brain is too small. Really, I can't figure it out. Maybe somebody else can help....

Hi Mike,
Can you be clear on the PayPal address to send it to? Also, any educator's discounts? I'd use it in classes.
Thanks,
Charles

Charles,
There will be a payment button in the post when the sale starts. To be fair to everybody, I need to start the sale at the predetermined time. So please check back on Saturday at noon....

Oh yeah, I didn't mean to imply I was trying to purchase it early! Let's see, Wisconsin is Central time, so noon there is 9am Alaska Time I believe. See ya then!

It's uplifting to see both such a great image and the lightning fast appreciation for it.

Here is a useful link when trying to figure out times / time zones: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meeting.html
Just put the two (or more) cities into the list and you will get a table with the times in both locations.
Noon Central time is 1:00 a.m. in Suzhuo

And so it begins. Who will win? I've gotten Rolling Stones tickets on every try. Will I luck out now? Stay tuned folks.

Please don't tell everybody in Chicago! The rest of us would like a chance…

Is there likely to be a round 3?
Noon US Central is 3am Australian Eastern Standard Time - a bit difficult. At the rate that Round 1 sold, I doubt there'll still be any available by 7am AEST.

Hmm. That makes it 3am on the east coast of Australia ... :-(
