David Shrigley - Be Nice, by sohohoho on Feb 8, 2018 1:38:00 GMT 1, I’m thinking about the starting price, steep or reasonable, Fantastic from 2016 just went for £4,750, there is clearly strong demand, his reputation solid and growing, if the starting price turns out to be £1,800, 20% member discount = £1,440, a third of latest hammer price, is that not a bargain? I would counter that with an excerpt from a comment that was made on CE's Instagram before they deleted it!
" I gather their heads have been turned by a few strong auction results. So now that some rich dudes with more money than sense go head to head (ego to ego) in the playground (blue chip auction house) and pay ridiculous sums for previous editions, that makes 125 new prints worth well over £1,000 each "

One auction result does not a market value make.
Let's see some sustained results, then we'll talk.

Though contemplate whether the world’s gone mad, or perhaps whether it has always been mad.

David Shrigley - Be Nice, by nighthawk on Feb 8, 2018 4:52:40 GMT 1, It just doesn't make sense to me...
Top tier for his burning print just released with Jealous is sitting at £1200, yet Counter Editions is going to release this one (1st tier) at £1800?!?!
What am I missing here?

David and CE folk have plans to go to the moon and buy Lambos.

David Shrigley - Be Nice, by Aubrey 245 on Feb 8, 2018 6:49:28 GMT 1, With the 'I am currently on fire' piece not even sold out yet, is there any chance his new piece will sell out for £1800? I don't think so... The Phillips pricing seems kind of crazy here..

I have one of these and they are quality and currently in the framing queue. I like this one better than fire. CE are Never cheap due to their artist base.

Be careful, this is not a good buy at this price. There will be some fire sales in the coming weeks..... just my opinion of course. i think you are right. 1800+ gets you alot of artwork

David Shrigley - Be Nice, by volvic on Feb 8, 2018 10:26:35 GMT 1, I heard final tier for this is 5k
Maybe it’s time that Shrigley finally gets the price increase he deserves. He’s been around for longer than most and is in my eyes a very important artist with plenty of museum shows and institutional support to back this up. I think this image is in a different league to the fire one at jealous but buy them up if you think they are cheap cause I have a feeling it’s about to get serious

Having said that , I am still not spending £1800+ on this print

David Shrigley - Be Nice, by mrbagel on Feb 8, 2018 10:56:05 GMT 1, It's a stroke of genius - people will believe anything if you stick a high enough price on it. "It's expensive, it must be good!"
Personally, I believe it's the Shrigley equivalent of Whatson, Girl With Red Balloon (perhaps the most weird but compelling comparison?) and even all the valentines guff we've seen lately. Lowest common denominator mass market appeal. Not very witty but everyone 'gets' it. Which is well, nice, innit?
Spouting aside, I'm guessing that his international presence must have seen the economic success of this image in its product forms, so perhaps that print has already sold itself. Sign me up!

David Shrigley - Be Nice, by Plate Spinner on Feb 8, 2018 11:05:15 GMT 1, my bet is that this goes close to selling out today, and even if it doesnt they wont mind having some prints left at final tier. CE have a roster of amazing artists, both established and upcoming. This in turn means they have a very different type of audience and buyer... They're a slick operation and this is why those artists work with them. The recent jealous one was a tricky one to get as there was one phone line and loads of people after. With this it will be get into the cart and buy if you are happy with the price you get at, if not move on to something else.

I think this image is in a different league to the fire one at jealous but buy them up if you think they are cheap cause I have a feeling it’s about to get serious By the look of the prices marked on the 3 previous CE prints, 2 had a top tiers also of £5k, and one at £3k. (Have they altered those prices since they sold out!!??)
Plus the last few "Fantastic" prints have sold at Phillips for around £5k.
I like this Be Nice print, but not sure I'd pay so much for it though... maybe the lowest tier, but I'd worry about paying more!!
