BANKSY GWB, by imkloot on May 15, 2011 14:30:44 GMT 1, I have a numbered but unsigned Banksy 'girl with balloon' print which I bought from P.O.W and I am reluctantly looking to sell it. I have tried to find the going rate for the print but am struggling to find out an accurate price. If anyone knows the value please post me a message.
Cheers.

This may be the time to bale out at the top!,imo

I remember the days when people used to blue tack them to the wall or even better trim them down to fit ikea frames.
Unlikely there are 500 good condition ones floating around!

If it's a bubble then why are you looking to buy now?
That wouldn't make sense.

Not if the market value is £5k. You sure you're not fatherxmas/distintive vision?

Why aren't you buying them then?
And it's you who floated a figure of £5k out there in your post above.

Unsigned just sold last month at hangup for 5k

I think todays fair rate is 4.5k

imo..i think your trying to bad talk the prices down on peoples pictures so you might be lucky and get your self a deal for a lot less than the current market value.

I think at least 50% of a Gallery sale price (not asking price) is realistic.
Also what actually constitutes a 'Gallery' in the street / urban art world?, fair enough an actual bricks and mortar gallery has to cover costs which can be horrendously high but someone who operates from home yet calls themselves a Gallery is a different matter innit?, low or no overheads should mean low asking prices but it doesnt always appear to be the case!, fair enough they still have to buy to sell but we could all do that!.

BANKSY GWB, by silvermyn on May 16, 2011 12:32:41 GMT 1, I was offered one at £3k last year. That was framed by a pro and in very good condition.
I would suggest that a cash deal for £3k to £3.5k for the U/S print with a COA would be a reasonable estimate as to the going market rate.

How are prices a year ago even relevant?
About 6 months ago I was offered a CYW for a few hundred pounds... 
In any case, Banksy has seen an obvious bump in popularity and if you're an art 'collector' (not necessarily a Banksy/Urban Art) and want to have ONE Banksy piece in your collection - it's going to be GWB.
About a year ago you could buy a NBG for ~£1500. But now they sell for £3000-3500. Does that mean they are inflated or could it be the simple fact that the market is on the up n up?
Bottom line... Supply is far outweighed by demand. A print like GWB is only gonna change hands if A) the seller is desperate / uneducated or B) asking prices are met or C) you buy from someone who's business it is to move art (gallery).

BANKSY GWB, by nacional on May 16, 2011 18:32:51 GMT 1, Why is GWB THE one Banksy print. His most iconic image is that of a rat, his most sought after and valuable print/image is Kate.
GWB is perhaps the most twee image , Kids on Guns (or whatever it's called!!) is far more impactful in taking a twee image (the kids) and shoving them on a stack of guns, whereas GWB takes a twee image (kid) and adds another twee image (balloon). End result is double TWEE...

BANKSY GWB, by recycle on May 16, 2011 20:21:12 GMT 1, Why do people always refer to gallery prices as 'not real' prices. Yes they are at the higher end of the spectrum but if people pay 5k for a GWB it still means that it should be considered within a sales range.
The way i see it, if this is the only GWB on the market at the moment and the seller wants 5k for it, then thats the current market value if you want one, yes i know it doesn't mean it will sell but it is the current price for one.
Any body who thinks an unsigned GWB is worth 3k, point me to one for sale and i'll buy it straight away.
