Should we accept flipping on this forum , by nobokov on Dec 16, 2016 15:35:24 GMT 1, For the purists, I recommend this be an "at cost only' marketplace. If you're against selling quickly, should 6 months be a long enough period to sit on your walls or in your Print Containment Unit? It seems arbitrary.
If someone wants to sell a dface flag for ยฃ900 immediately after they've iced down their F5 finger, that's probably gonna piss off the ones who also have fresh finger injuries.
Perhaps there should be two separate threads - one for art purists who will only sell a NOLA at original cost, and a second for the profiteers and bottomless walleteers.
Of course, those in each section must stay in their respective corners, lest they become extremely annoyed at each other. Also, i recommend that the term "flipper" be changed to "flapjacker." Way less derogatory and just imagine the plethora of Animated pancake Gifs that will delight us well into 2018.

it goes back to everything has a price and as long as the buyer and seller can come to a mutual agreement, then no harm / no foul. it's their business. it just doesn't need to be on public display.

Should we accept flipping on this forum , by Coach on Dec 16, 2016 16:11:03 GMT 1, They're are bigger things to be worried about and get motivated over than flippers on this forum... Dealing with flipping if you don't like it is easy - ignore the threads, don't buy from them and just accept that this type of enterprise is going to happen. If you wanted the print at source and missed it, then accept you missed out on that too and it happens... Keep calm and carry on! In most part flippers are limited on this forum because they are not appreciated, that's enough IMO... If you start drawing up 'rules' on flipping it'll be a Policing and admin nightmare, not to mention who has the right to state what % is fair after what period of time? Do we start taking personal circumstances into consideration? Again this just nonsense IMO, accept it happens... Live and let live!
I've never put much weight on the "bigger things to worry about" argument. One can have a view on minor issues at the same time as worrying about the big stuff.
But I do agree with you regarding rules. No point. We should self police. The way members conduct themselves results in whether they have a good or poor reputation (though it's quite apparent that many do not give two hoots about that).

I agree, but the in the face after a drop seems to be norm these days, that's why I started this thread. It's good to see differing opinions on this, that is what art does in many ways. I just think this is a forum for discussing and discovering art, not an outlet for making a quick buck, there are sites already set up for that.

I have a 12 year old son, and my country just elected Donald Trump. And no, I'm not going with the obvious that Donald Trump acts like a 12 year old. Just that neither will do what I want all the time, even if it is the right thing to do.
But I do think new threads on flipping every 2 weeks are pointless.

Members with a low post count get a real roasting, but there now seems to be longer standing members doing it with less flack. I've always accepted that it happens, but at one point people respected the forum and flipped on eBay only. I'm not condoning it, but is time to accept it and save getting worked up about it, as it's worse than ever and not going to go away. Oh it also seems flipping prints is like the trainer flipping game.
If you removed the flippers forum will have to Close... Better live like it is

Should we accept flipping on this forum , by iamzero on Dec 16, 2016 21:56:48 GMT 1, To try and stop the flipping of anything is impossible to do. Because there are so many variables somebody may have a genuine case for selling something almost immediately and it's hard to tell the difference between a real need to sell and a sell purely for profit. For an easy example last week I bought Paul Weller tour tickets at work at the same time my missus bought some while at home. Now I only need two tickets and could easily sell the spare two on the Weller forum at cost to help a fan or just as easily sell them somewhere else for three times the price. In the first case I would feel good about helping out a fellow fan, but what if a week before the gig this stranger finds out they can't go for some reason and sells them for a profit? That's no good to me... I may as well have sold them and spent the money on my newborns first Christmas. Personally I think when this forum began it was a fairly close community that looked out for each other's collections of various artists, but when you add increasing values at crazy rates that goes completely out of the window and it's pretty much every man for himself. There are some good people on here as I've found but there also some complete arseholes. From just pixels on a screen it's difficult to tell who's who sometimes.

Fair play. I just don't relish a forum with loads of rules. Flies in the face of this forums background in graff. And for what it's worth as far as I'm aware I'm not suggesting one thing and acting in a different way myself.

Should we accept flipping on this forum , by Dungle on Dec 17, 2016 0:35:30 GMT 1, The fact is people buy prints with the intention of flipping them
That is because certain prints make big money posts release
People need to get used to that rather than moaning.
If you can make 200-500 quid just because you have a fast internet so be it.
But don't pretend you have a slow connection need to pay for urgent medical help or such like just admit you bought it for money.

Should we accept flipping on this forum , by Jeezuz Jones Snr on Dec 17, 2016 1:48:51 GMT 1, I agree with Coach we should start a mob, no sorry erm vigilantes aarggggh I mean self police. What's wrong with a faceless, self appointed minority that tell people to do as they say, not as they do. It's worked for the Tories for years. Or we could just live and let live. Fair play. I just don't relish a forum with loads of rules. Flies in the face of this forums background in graff. And for what it's worth as far as I'm aware I'm not suggesting one thing and acting in a different way myself.
Coach you must have flipped something ๐? I think we've all done it. As it's been said it's the timing is the issue, if someone puts a FS thread up shortly after release the mods should just delete the threads (no questions asked). And if people want to pay over the odds just go to eBay. Nice to see flippers get burnt when there is no money to be made.

No. I've never sold any art on eBay. I've never bought any art with the intention of selling it. Only ever had one account on here. I've sold some art on here from time to time.

I think you mean "some people buy prints with the intention of flipping".
A percentage, not a majority, do. And a much smaller percentage make a lame excuse as to why they do it.
