cheers ;D

I'll add, as you may know you are always taking a risk on eBay with authenticity and condition etc. Whereas we offer a professional service and have invested highly into a professional website, hence the higher than eBay prices.
Also, unlike that other gallery we have pieces for sale, which are in stock and our site is not dominated with the likes of 'sold out' or 'POA'!
Regards,
Kean Hughes

Yes, but I bet you buy all your prints on ebay ;D a) otherwise you'd have signed and b) you'd have older prints and c) they're not available anywhere else.
You are, in effect, a much more expensive ebay. (online sales site)

You're not representing the artists or giving them a percentage of what you sell (i assume). This is like me putting my prints / art online to sell and calling it a gallery. This is no different to buying prints to make a profit on ebay. Good luck though!

All my prints from POW were bought by myself from POW, all original paperwork is included with the sale of each piece.
Furthermore, I built up this collection from a few older Banksy's which I sold last year in order to be able to diversify the selection of artwork for sale.

I'm no website expert but I hope you haven't invested heavily into it - I could have knocked that site up for you in a day easily... and I'd have put you a shopping cart on it... Really hope you didn't pay a lot for it... seriously
However - it is nice to see no POA prices, although they're well out of line... I'm sure many of the eBayers can offer just the same service too

I have a few in mind such as Elms Lesters who are first and foremost nice people who like art and helping artists. Also I think that the semi-clued up/non-sucker buyer is fairly safe on the Bay with ref to prov etc, especially with the Banksy forum help!!

*Kean Hughes Contemporary Art is launched*, by sausageboonwee on Apr 24, 2007 17:46:28 GMT 1, That is the most expensive unsigned Soup Can I have seen yet. Nearly ยฃ500 more than Campbarbara. You will not make any friends on this forum with such blatant p*ss taking on the Banksy front. I wouldn't however go as far as saying your website was a who's who of POW. You do offer a larger selection of artists so some credit there.

*Kean Hughes Contemporary Art is launched*, by steve on Apr 24, 2007 17:53:13 GMT 1, actually the only site you need is www.hipartgallery.com :-)
thought i'd get an account on here as i heard a rumour there was a bit of banter about my new site.
i know it has some pic issues and the POA's are coming off. wasn't going live until this weekend but due to this place i haven't had a chance to add all prices and sort out some picture issues.
reading through posts regarding my site, just a few points as i've been missing out:
1. i love the 80's, so if its cool, sweet, lush, then its hip...so leave my name alone  ..... at least its easy to remember :-)
2. someone said it isn't easy to navigate.....WHAT!! it's bloody child friendly! What do you want....a printed out catalog version delivered to your door that you and the wife can browse through at your lazy leisure?
3. We accept offers on all our works....so if you think the price is high offer us a lower one 
4. We have over 160 prints in stock thank you mr keano. we'll remove the sold ones when we can be arsed.
5. only 2 of our prints are originally from the bay...these being sold on behalf of friends of ours. we DO NOT use ebay as a source of buying our work. ask for proof of purchase of all our works.
6. we DO NOT use ebay for our price guides....thus prices do not match prices on ebay (as i said though we accept offers).
7. we look like a charity compared to keano's prices!!
8. thanks for the MANY of you that joined the mailing list, and the positive feedback from the large majority :-)
9. i'll think of one and get back to you.
now get that ex doctor with the big collars on the phone!

interesting debate. seems to be sliding into the flippers versus re-sellers debate (there is an interesting take on this on the Obey forum). Not too much difference imho between someone who has a pretty site and someone who uses ebay to sell things. I am not saying this is bad, I have sold stuff on the bay. But it does seem that many people here get automatically pissed off at someone selling prints to make a buck. Hey, if you want to pump you prices up, do it. I too think a lot of stuff is overpriced but you'll figure that out when nothing sells.

An example: Artopsy has the Baldwn Politics print at 475. They are on the bay for BIN 310. I sold one to a forum member for 250. Similar deals can be found from Nuart (re his Applause for sale) as well as swaps.
