Kinda spoils the fun though.

Expresso Beans, by RBK on Dec 31, 2009 21:05:46 GMT 1, Are any of you mods or senior-members on EB? If so I have some Banksy price information I'd like to donate (but I'm too lazy to input myself). Please PM me.

Expresso Beans, by amsterdam9697 on Jan 6, 2010 10:38:09 GMT 1, Expresso Beans is a fantastic resource for everything art/print/poster related. The sales are reported both by members (private sales, etc.) as well as Ebay auctions, so all reported secondary sales are taken into consideration. The # of the print is noted, as is the seller, the amount, the date and any condition-issues that may have affected the sale price. Can you imagine how incredible Banksy Forums would be for a market guide if y'all had been doing the same for the past 4+ years?
More importantly, it's just a great resource for new artists, prints both new & old, upcoming releases, photos of prints, framing ideas, new music, upcoming shows, tours, etc. The Forum is the place for information on upcoming releases and the typical banter that one finds among collectors...
As far as art prints v. gig posters v. urban art, there is plenty for everyone. There are quite a few fans of Banksy, as well as the usual suspects, but I think that the market for Banksy et al. is more often a little older with a little more expendable wealth than the majority on EB... and the number of Banksy's in EB members collections mentioned earlier is just a drop in the bucket. Not everyone adds everything to their collection, especially prints that aren't going anywhere anytime soon. Either way, there's still plenty of us touting the genius of Banksy and doing our best to convince the rest of EB that his works warrant the praise. Sometimes I think that's the main rap against Banksy, as, let's be honest, to the layman any poster for $2-15K is just plain crazy. Especially when you see the small editions that Klausen, Horkey, Emek, etc. are putting out for $25-$100+... but then, that's neither here nor there. Just an observation...
I guess I would recommend that everyone from Banksy take a look at EB sometime. You don't have to have your account approved, so stop over sometime and let's keep this thread alive! ;D

Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy the Banksy forum, but today when reading one of the usual junkmails I get being a member of this forum, I came across this gem "The forum has now over 10,100 Members and is regularly visited by more Artists and Galleries than any other forum."
That statement is either completely untrue or absolutely unproven, in all likelihood the first. EB has about 2.5 TIMES the members of this board, almost 25,000 members. Gigposters has close to 28,000 members, over 9300 alone are designers or artists. Does Silky really believe more artists and galleries visit this site than GP or EB? really?
I'm all about boosting your own site, but let's not sacrifice it's integrity by making false claims.

The claim wasn't made in regards to any specific genre, it simply said that this forum is regulary visited by more artists and galleries than any other, a statement that the data and math does not support in any fashion.

Me opting-out of the mass emails doesn't magically turn the falsities into truth for all the other members (which are more than half of those at GP and EB
Since that statement was the first in the email, it really popped out, but thanks for the link regardless.

1. Did it say this forum had more members than any other? No.
2. Gigposters is about a different subject than this forum, so its no comparison.

Expresso Beans, by Daniel Silk on Jun 30, 2010 21:01:56 GMT 1, I'm bit confused about another thing here also. Silky, there's a Facebook user called ''. I signed up, thinking it was this forum, but I'm not sure it is as the links take me elsewhere, to a very similar forum. A little confused, can you throw any light? thanks.
I have know idea what your talking about sorry

Expresso Beans, by senorflippyflop on Dec 23, 2010 21:46:22 GMT 1, BUMP for EB
Like others have mentioned it's great for info. prices might not be 100% but, overall where else can you get all the info in one place? I also agree that it's not like this forum but, its a great place to explore different upcoming artist of all types.
if everyone started to contribute. i think the prices will become more accurate and be used more through out the community.

Expresso Beans, by cpo on Jan 14, 2011 10:18:33 GMT 1, Speaking of which, EBs doing their annual voting for best Art Print and Poster of the Year right now... Feel free to head over there and vote (Eeuls looks to be doing well this year) and make 2o11 a year of more volunteering to improve the information and listings of art of ALL types! EB is the site that connects all of these other poster/art sites together!
The link to the voting is in the upper right hand corner. www.Expressobeans/
Cheers!
