ORIGINAL PHLEGM painting., by tonysantos2001 on Jun 2, 2013 15:53:17 GMT 1, Ok, just a quickie but I've been contacted recently by somebody that is selling an original PHLEGM piece, the piece is 4 foot by 6 foot and displays one of his characters painted on board. Now the thing is I know that PHLEGM originals (Paintings) are as rare as hens teeth! If just wondering if this is worth its value as they're wanting four figures for it.
By the way, would be buying for my collection, NOT to flip, just want to be sure I'm not getting fleeced, just that I've tried to do research into how much his paintings are going for and hitting a dead end!
Any idea how much I should be expecting to pay?! Considering his prints that were ยฃ100 new are being flipped for ยฃ300+
Thanks guys!

The guy selling it is a landlord of a building that was knocked down a few months ago, he also had a few other pieces going like Kid Acne and Mila K, as well as my old mate Bubba2000, which is how he got in contact with me offering to "sell" it back to me/him ha ha ha!
I've tried posting pictures before but no joy, if somebody can tell me how I'll try and get a pic of it!

ORIGINAL PHLEGM painting., by tonysantos2001 on Jun 3, 2013 1:08:50 GMT 1, Ok, in Sheffield city centre there's LOADS of redevelopment going on, he's a landlord of a few properties and pieces had been sprayed on buildings that he owns (along with other artists that I mentioned) that have now been demolished, like I said he tried selling some BUBBA2000 pieces back to me, I asked what else he had and he showed me!
He has some MASSIVE pieces that I think will probably end up being sold privately but he had some small details that were obviously part of bigger pieces but were destroyed so he's cut them down, probably about 12 inches by 16 inches.
The most AMAZING piece is on a slab of granite, amazing as I can't believe that it wasn't destroyed in the demolition.

Think I might just pay the asking price, try and haggle a bit though!
You think any auction houses might be able to help maybe?

ORIGINAL PHLEGM painting., by tonysantos2001 on Jun 3, 2013 19:00:08 GMT 1, Right, just an update but I've had a few messages suggesting that I'm a bad person for even thinking of buying one of these PHLEGM pieces so I just want to ask a question.
The buildings that these paintings came from have BEEN DEMOLISHED as part of the MOOR regeneration plan in Sheffield City Centre. Indeed, if you go down there now you can see that many paintings have been destroyed, you can see them broken and smashed apart.
Now the landlord salvaged a few pieces and is selling them. Would people rather that they be destroyed forever like some parts of the mural or is it good that some pieces have been saved?! I'm starting to wonder if I should buy one or not.
:/
Advice needed...........HELP!

If your buying it to make a quick buck then don't
At the end of the day do you really care what other people think?
