Martin Whatson โข Tiger Print, by Jaylove on Dec 9, 2017 22:18:01 GMT 1, After seeing people's Tigers land in the US the last couple days, I finally decided to email about my order and why it had not progressed passed the purchase stage. Prettys**tty and disappointed to hear that my order "was actually refunded back to me on the day of purchase due to an issue problem at checkout. and that I should have had a notice from PayPal.. Please check with your bank". Not only is this disheartening because I was never notified of an issue but I was exremely ecstatic to finally have gotten my first Whatson at "retail" price. I got screwed on the Behind the Curtain drop due to fraud block on my card.. I finally get through (legitimately) and get refunded.. Pretty bad way to start off my weekend! I'd be curious to find out what the "issue problem at checkout was"... EDIT.. now that I look back through my Bank/Paypal transactions.. There is no history of my order. But yet, I have a confirmation email of the purchase.. That sucks man. If it makes you feel any better (probably not) I missed out as well on some BS too.

Ben Eine Amsterdam Release, by Jaylove on Dec 9, 2017 16:56:43 GMT 1, Only showed glitter as sold out so I tried to add red and got s pop up that it was sold out. Did this over an hour ago. To hear they added mote isnโt a good feeling. You literally have to spend your entire life on the net to catch these opportunities it seems.

Bast โข Popeye Print, by Jaylove on Dec 9, 2017 13:33:01 GMT 1, Wait, I thought we all had to sell at cost here? At least that's what I got destroyed about in my sales thread.
Just kidding, btw. Good luck with the sale. Disappointed I missed this one.

Eric Pause ๐จ๐ฆ Print Release โข Show News โข Art For Sale, by Jaylove on Dec 9, 2017 12:26:27 GMT 1, Just to add to my reasoning for picking D is because the background is much more receptive to different framing options. A to me would look odd with a mat and based on the color of the background the framing options are more limited, hence most would frame it in the same way. Whereas with the white background you'll see a myriad of different framing. Different color mats, fames, etc.
Just my 2 cents and why I like D better.

Ai Weiwei Odyssey Print, by Jaylove on Dec 9, 2017 1:38:16 GMT 1, Finally received mine. Quite beautiful in the flesh tbh What's the paper quality like? Thanks. It's very thin like a poster. Honestly that is what had bothered me about it. The image is nice though.

Ai Weiwei Odyssey Print, by Jaylove on Dec 8, 2017 13:10:35 GMT 1, I think above is a fair point, It was not quite the same as a release the Bots have eaten up in nano seconds, and luddites like me didn't stand a chance of getting. 24 hours is a pretty long time, plus there was fair warning when it would be made available. True it is a bit different but was in China for 10 days in the run up to the release, hardly ever online. But mostly it is the same - still people trying to make an cheap buck from other forum members, leaves a bad taste for me and definitely not something you'll ever see me doing. If circumstances were different and I was desperate for some cash then I would just head to ebay with all the other flippers. But personally I would prefer to hook someone up and forgo a hundred bucks or two, which I always felt was the spirit of this place, the fact that multiple people are challenging that shows that I am wrong I guess. You missed out and are possed about it. ย That's basically where all this is coming from. ย I'm not desperate for cash either. ย But why should I sell at cost to appease you? ย Why should I not sell it at what it is selling for now? ย I missed out on so many releases in a millisecond only to have people try to flip to me and others without much of a whimper from you guys. ย The soup can thread was full of people saying the value was at what it was selling for and not what it was paid for.
This is nothing more than selective outrage. ย Did you make an offer? ย Have I turned down a single offer? ย No you didn't so etc is all the belly aching about. ย Christ this is ridiculous.

Ai Weiwei Odyssey Print, by Jaylove on Dec 8, 2017 1:15:15 GMT 1, Plenty of deals on ebay: Asking prices: $348 $975 $245 $1250 $1000 $999.99 $295.95 $379.99 $695 $699.98 $150 $500 $240 Sold prices: $379 $375 $600 $285 $300 $240 If itโs selling so well on the bay why not sell it there and save yourself the bitchfest? At the end of the day itโs yours to do whatever you want with but selling it on here just after release is going to get you a bit ofs**t, surely you realise that?
No I donโt think I deserve anywhere near the amount of flack Iโm getting. Not for something that was readily available for all to buy and sold out in over a day. Not for something that people can clearly make an offer for. I was going to put some other stuff up at cost but forget it.
And my post was in direct response to someone who told me they were selling at cost on eBay. Perhaps next time I wonโt post a price and let people bitch about that.

Got the print several weeks ago. What a giant bitch fest.

Ai Weiwei Odyssey Print, by Jaylove on Dec 7, 2017 12:39:29 GMT 1, please just take this to ebay. there are true weiwei fans like me who were absolutely gutted to miss out on this. feels even sh1ttier seeing posts like this just a few days after the thing is delivered - would have been able to get one myself if it weren't for all the flippers, well done - a couple of hundred bucks profit. don't know what has happened recently, in the not too distant past people would be too ashamed to do this here So is this what this place is about then? Use a sales thread as a cryfest because you couldn't secure an print that was EASILY available to all for an entire day? IF you were a true fan you would have known about the availability. IF all the whining is true, you could easily secure one for waaaaaaay cheaper.
These posts are very, very rich considering the 100s of pages of people trying to convince others that a 10 pound soup can poster is worth 100x more than cost. Or any other release out there being resold here for much more than cost. I missed out on plenty of releases only to be offered that very day for way more.
Can't have it both ways. If I didn't list a price, you guys would b**chabout it. Make an offer or be quiet. Purchased this print months ago with the intention of keeping it. Get your facts straight before making judgements against people.
"True fan" please miss me with that nonsense.

New KAWS print from Pace, by Jaylove on Dec 4, 2017 3:21:17 GMT 1, How is there ANY hype for f**kingprint of Spongebob Squarepants at such an insane price? I think it is time for me to sell off my collection...I don't want to be a part of the community that buys this horseshit. A lot of people launder money through art. So while some buy for the love some will buy to hide/launder money.

Ai Weiwei Odyssey Print, by Jaylove on Dec 3, 2017 19:37:12 GMT 1, Such a shame that such a great image wasted on such cheap paper. I's really bothering me. It bothered me initially as well. No COA. Cheap paper. I was inclined to sell it, but I found a $25 frame at Micheals (Unsure if in Canada, but US craft store known for their weekly coupons). Decided to throw it in there, and the poster served its purpose. Don't see myself selling it know - not a bad framed image for 125 usd. Yea we have Michaels up here. Not a bad idea.

New Faile Block Print , by Jaylove on Nov 30, 2017 23:04:02 GMT 1, Liked it but didnโt love enough to Throw down the cash , besides I got the last one at below cost on the secondary price , really good quality product . I know which one you're talking about. Saw a few of em go well below cost on Ebay. I do think this image is nicer but I think they may suffer the same fate. If I can get one 25% below cost, I'll pick one up.
