for the anti flippers, by shills on Dec 11, 2014 21:36:32 GMT 1, I, for one, would love to understand the self-entitlement that comes with collecting prints. What makes you think you're entitled to a print at cost that I had to put some time and effort in the process to acquire for you and other 'collectors'
Us flippers provide a service- a damn necessary one at that. If it were not for flippers, 9 out of 10 of you would never even have a shot in hell at acquiring the pieces we get.
For all of those reasons, we are entitled to our profits we deem suitable for the print in question. Buy it or not, all stuff worth anything will sell. Just because you're a cheap ass who feels he is owed something which you are not, does not make flipping wrong.
I've even started to help get buddies involved in this. A true service which benefits all parties will sustain itself forever.
Who doesn't like good money for hard work? I know I sure do!!
Capitalism is the way everything should be. Always. Forever.

The only thing that annoys me is the constant False hyping from not only flippers but anyone involved buying a print. I would say while ethically maybe in grey area I have nothing against people taking a risk to make money or lose it. People usually always forget that there is another side to the coin meaning losses in some cases.

You're honest and that's a good thing. I'm not against flippers. Ita always interested me why people are against others making money. That's the society we live in. It's ok to make money on short term property and share deals but not art.....discuss.

Just so we are clear- the process is accepted where I say it is, not you or anyone else.

However, I do have a problem with your attitude. You are rude and mean to other forum members while they are honest with their own opinion and give their opinion in good manner and respect. If you could be this way as well, I am sure that you still have a number of people that do not agree with your thoughts, but could have a clear and honest discussion with you.

If that's your purpose, to make money out of art just for your own good and just for yourself, that's fine by me. I do not agree, but go ahead. I am the last person to tell others what to do.

for the anti flippers, by shills on Dec 11, 2014 22:46:50 GMT 1, Hopefully the point was made loud and clear that aside from the money I boast about, that flippers are a necessary entity for any successful artist.
Biggest point to take away from this thread was that you are not entitled to complain about flippers. You are not entitled to complain about the prices of flippers prints. You are not entitled to the things that flippers are because they are obviously better at what they do or else you would have gotten the prints.
Therefore, you are entitled to pay a premium in the aftermarket to people such as myself and others with a similar hobby for the time and effort put forth into securing that highly-sought-after print.
You're all welcome, the collectors I mean.

On the other hand if you didn't buy the print in the first place they may have been able to buy it from source instead of you. You are creating your own market-well done-hope it works for you. Don't be a knob and scream and shout about how your doing everyone a favour though. Attention seeking at its best.

I don't buy street/urban art anymore, as i have enough, maybe even too much
I am moving more into art deco stuff, I like that more I think. Floor standing lamps, thats my kinda thing at the moment.
Clocks next I think

for the anti flippers, by Deleted on Dec 12, 2014 1:26:00 GMT 1, I, for one, would love to understand the self-entitlement that comes with collecting prints. What makes you think you're entitled to a print at cost that I had to put some time and effort in the process to acquire for you and other 'collectors' Us flippers provide a service- a damn necessary one at that. If it were not for flippers, 9 out of 10 of you would never even have a shot in hell at acquiring the pieces we get. For all of those reasons, we are entitled to our profits we deem suitable for the print in question. Buy it or not, all stuff worth anything will sell. Just because you're a cheap ass who feels he is owed something which you are not, does not make flipping wrong. I've even started to help get buddies involved in this. A true service which benefits all parties will sustain itself forever. Who doesn't like good money for hard work? I know I sure do!! Capitalism is the way everything should be. Always. Forever. I doub't anyone cares about flippers anyway.
A lot of artists churn out stuff knowing it's hyped up by flippers anyway and re sold to people who belive that prices will go up and up untill they se ethe same prints etc on eBay months later at lower prices and unsold.
The thing is you did insult people who didn't go for the Brainwash Queen print.

What makes you think you're entitled to a print at cost that I had to put some time and effort in the process to acquire for you and other 'collectors' Us flippers provide a service- a damn necessary one at that. If it were not for flippers, 9 out of 10 of you would never even have a shot in hell at acquiring the pieces we get. For all of those reasons, we are entitled to our profits we deem suitable for the print in question. Buy it or not, all stuff worth anything will sell. Just because you're a cheap ass who feels he is owed something which you are not, does not make flipping wrong. I've even started to help get buddies involved in this. A true service which benefits all parties will sustain itself forever. Who doesn't like good money for hard work? I know I sure do!! Capitalism is the way everything should be. Always. Forever. I doub't anyone cares about flippers anyway.
A lot of artists churn out stuff knowing it's hyped up by flippers anyway and re sold to people who belive that prices will go up and up untill they se ethe same prints etc on eBay months later at lower prices and unsold.
The thing is you did insult people who didn't go for the Brainwash Queen print.
