Banksy โข Gangsta Rat Print, by brut on Jul 26, 2007 18:02:49 GMT 1, Hey cosmic. Nothing bad with gangsta rat. I just liked the other rats that i had next to it. I'm sure you must be a bit miffed with having to pay ยฃ360 for it. They must have seen you coming!

Banksy โข Gangsta Rat Print, by brut on Jul 26, 2007 17:50:27 GMT 1, Hi Bombhugger. I know what you mean about the Gangstar rat. I also paid ยฃ70 back in 2005 but was less than impressed with it,so much so that after having it on my wall for a few years i decided to trade it with someone from this forum for a unsigned applause which i adore. I know the applause it not worth as much but i get alot more satisfaction from looking at the big bad applause than i did from the gangstar rat. I suppose it helps that i still have a placard rat & love rat.

Rare Insect Sin Target., by brut on Feb 26, 2007 14:01:11 GMT 1, Yup.I think notitle has it. I believe Paul is concentrating more on the art side at present but still involved with commercial projects such as Dr who. Insect is still the working name for the collective.

Rare Insect Sin Target., by brut on Feb 26, 2007 8:33:52 GMT 1, The insect signature has changed & i think the first prints issued with only Paul's signature were the dj shadow kid series. I have the frankenstien print as shown below with the same signature. There is nothing fake about the above print.For people who are recently new to inects work then i understand the query. Insect are/were a collective in the same way faile are/were now aiko has departed.

Rare Insect Sin Target., by brut on Feb 25, 2007 22:41:58 GMT 1, Hi. I am thinking of selling/trading the print shown below. The print is a rare version of the sin print Paul did for POW a few years ago.This is a signed edition of 5 (number 3/5) & dated 2005.Print size is 610 x 520 mm.The print sold out very quickly at the time. The sin image has been overprinted onto a actual american shooting target. As you maybe aware Insect has other target prints onsale at POW (page 7).These are editions of 350 & unsigned. If you own one of these you will be aware of the very thin paper they are printed on. When i recieved this print from POW a few years ago i complained due to the print having slight markings around some of the edges.POW explained that due to the print being a shooting target & printed on thin paper they were not able to prevent the slight markings to the print.They also stated that once the print was framed i would not be able to see any imperfections. They were right of course & it looks fantastic framed. As you maybe aware Paul insect will be having a exhibition at Laz Inc in July & his work will only gain in value. Open to offers. Brut.

Applause value, by brut on Jul 26, 2007 22:05:11 GMT 1, I'm well pleased that there is alot of love for this print now as a couple of months after its release ebay was flooded with them & there were a few negative comments about the print,along the lines that it was not a classic stencil image. I loved the fact that it was different & it is a monster. Crazyjake: Shop around for prices when you frame it as you can save between ยฃ30 & ยฃ60 between different frameshops.

OBEY & ordering from America., by brut on Oct 31, 2006 23:18:28 GMT 1, I have just placed a order with obey as i have read about the better procedure he has in place for mailing out international orders.He has written & apologised on his homepage about the shoddy service that was given to international orders in the past.This was due to a rather poor employee who has now left. I know many people have been less than impressed with orders placed in the past as they never recieved their goods. Has anyone recently placed an order with obey & have you recieved your goods? I have ordered the Malcolm X print which looks like it has sold out in a matter of hours.A real bargain at ยฃ32.50 inclusive of postage!! I have ordered prints from Faile in the US before & the service is great. Oh well fingers crossed.

Nick Walker 1st mona A/P + 1 off ghetto ghost for , by brut on May 13, 2007 9:40:42 GMT 1, I have decided to sell my mona simpson artist proof number 3/8. This sale comes with a one off ghetto ghost that has been sprayed onto white card. I am selling both items together as this is (in a strange way) i received them. When i purchased the mona simpson print from Nick in early 2006 he stated that this was a edition of 8 artist proofs so you can image my face when last july i saw the same print on ebay with the same number. I emailed nick & being the great man he is he did no more than call me explaining that there were only 8 prints but somehow he had sent out two prints with the same number. He sent me a certificate of authenticity for the print plus the ghetto ghost as a gift. I have never sold anything on ebay before so this will be on offer here but if i get no real interest then it will go on ebay. All email's between me & nick will be sent with the print.

Napalm - What colour is yours?, by brut on Apr 13, 2006 15:20:08 GMT 1, I'm not too sure if were going to get to the bottom of how many grey's or yellows are out there. I have a unsigned yellow one (130/500), & i prefer it to the grey as i saw the grey one in art republic last year & found it too picsulated.

Pezlow's picks, by brut on Mar 1, 2008 13:12:33 GMT 1, Have to agree with victor & spirit about the Logan hicks print.It was by far the best print i purchased last year.The depth of the print is stunning & the bomb proof packaging by BRP is something to behold.If these were available at pow i think they would have sold out long ago.

What's been your best day buying prints?, by brut on Feb 15, 2008 18:06:19 GMT 1, Hey Dellboyy i think we have all done that. The faile site was also a goldmine back then with great prints galore. I paid ยฃ78 includind postage for the first Mao print they did which was an edition of 8.I was dubious of buying it at the time as i was not sure what the quality was going to be like.I was not dissapointed.

What's been your best day buying prints?, by brut on Feb 15, 2008 17:42:14 GMT 1, I just wanted to know other people's best purchases of prints online. I have wondered about this as i paid a grand total of ยฃ224.50 including postage for these 3 prints from pow in august 2005. G.W.B was ยฃ85.00 plus postage.
Insect- Orange frank,1/5, was ยฃ45.00 plus postage.
D*Face print was ยฃ75 plus postage.
Seemed like a good deal at the time.

Forum members help required!, by brut on Dec 19, 2007 20:18:43 GMT 1, Hi. I wanted to know if anyone knows what has happened to disco duster,(Steve) as he has not been on the forum since 6th of december. I agreed to buy steves pure evil sgt peppers print in the items for sale section.I paid him via paypal on the 2nd of december but have not heard from him since & have not seen the print either. I have sent him a few emails but have had no reply. I am not sure if he is on holiday & wanted to know if anyone else knew or had a way of getting in contact with him. Cheers, Brut.

Favourite New Music of the '07, by brut on Dec 9, 2007 13:07:42 GMT 1, Seen quite a few bands again this year,some very poor(Hadouken) & some very good,(Arcade Fire,Editors & Interpol). I think it's been a poor year for new music with exception to one band who kind of blew me away with what they are doing.They are called Late of the pier.You can check them out on myspace. Not been a great year for albums but i seem to be the only one who loved the interpol album.I think their writing gets stronger with every release which is a rare thing these days.

THE TITANIC..., by brut on Dec 2, 2007 11:02:14 GMT 1, I own 15 banksy prints & about 20 "other" prints by various artists & i paid asking price from pow & other print houses for them so to be honest i don't care what they are worth.They are all hanging on my walls & not in art folders. I may feel different if i paid ยฃ1000 for a unsigned banksy print & have been watching the value slide. It does piss me off a bit that i am not able to get any off the new banksy releases due to the amount off flippers sitting at their pc's all day & refreshing. If the ship does sink then i am going to have my lifeboat ready to rescue all the prints i have been unable to get before they get wet. Please note that there will be no need for me to rescue any of the flippers in my lifeboat as we all know that flipper is a dolphin.
