Need Advice - Victim of Fraud Via Arsty, by jluhiex on Feb 11, 2019 17:57:57 GMT 1, Harland Miller - Iโll Never Forgot What I Canโt Remeber
There are only a few galleries selling this work.
Artsy is a proxy server that the client and gallery access. The response is typically @reply.artsy.net
I doubt server got hacked but more so employee still had access to galleryโs artsy account. In any case gallery should still be held liable if this is the situation.
At minimum, they wire transfer details should have had the gallery name or address as a minimum safe-guard.

Creased offset lithograph, by jluhiex on Feb 8, 2019 5:32:22 GMT 1, Hey has anybody successfully got folds / creases out of an offset lithograph? I found a badly folded poster which I'd love to get flattened down. Wood linen backing help get folds out to the point where it is hardly noticeable? By yourself or sent to a professional restorer?
Couple hundred bucks and Poster Mountain can take care of it.

Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by jluhiex on Feb 4, 2019 19:44:37 GMT 1, First: What's a VIP ticket? I got the print through the online sale, which doubled as a ticket (technically VIP ticket). However, even if prior to that sale, if you bought the $2500 Special Ticket, you would get a print--it would still be mailed to you regardless.
If you have more info on someone receiving a print at the museum, please share. Because when I saw that--it just raised some red flags b/c I saw nobody walking around with something like that--and don't even know where they would've had them even. The table inside didn't and again, it was not in the gift bags.
The Museum said no prints would be given out at the event, they are all being mailed. This is what they told me over the phone. This is VVVIP though.

Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by jluhiex on Feb 4, 2019 18:34:57 GMT 1, Thats why I was asking you my friend. Here are the facts form my side: I personally know a collector from Dusseldorf/Germany who bought a VIP ticket (not sure how much he paid) and he had the print in hand right after the event. But also he knows Kaws since ages and owns many originals so I don't know if he received it because of the so called VIP ticket (he used this term) or as a personal gift.

FS: KAWS - Snoopy Set (No One's Home, Stay Steady, The Thing, by jluhiex on Feb 4, 2019 14:14:00 GMT 1, This set framed sold last week for $39,000, ($46,800 after buyers premium). This was also the highest this set has ever sold for at auction. Bit of a steep markup asking $65k but more power to you if you can get it I guess. Dealers are getting a bit punchy with Kaws. What auction was that? ARTNET

Forum Auctions โข Banksy Marketplace ๐ฌ๐ง, by jluhiex on Jan 29, 2019 22:18:15 GMT 1, Can anyone help? I was involved via my artsy account and stated a maximum bid of 35K for the barcode print a few days ago. They informed me that I was outbid by the floor, but at the same time the hammer price is the same as my maximum bid. how can the hammer price be the same as my maximum bid without winning?
Depending on the first bid and the bid increments your absentee bid or max bid wasn't factored as a floor or phone bid beat you out to the 35k bid increment. To avoid this you either monitor the auction live and continue bidding or set a higher max. Just part of the bid game.
Floor bid 33k You bid 34k Floor bid 35k SOLD

Sending Foreign Currency , by jluhiex on Jan 26, 2019 19:40:58 GMT 1, I researched currencytransfer, transferwise, ofx, and xe and my own bank. Transferwise was hands down the cheapest. For a 45k usd transaction the difference between my bank and TW was close to $1200 usd.
Takes maybe 1-2 days to setup with account verification. You still need to go to your bank and transfer the money into their account (might incur a wire fee, if you have a good banking relationship they will waive this). Typically there is a cutoff time for funding...transferred 10am PST went into recipients account the next business day (UK recipient).
The other aspect of this is that real-time, mid market rates can fluctuate like crazy. If I had made the same exact transfer 4 days prior I would have saved $550 usd.

Damien Hirst H4 โข Veils, by jluhiex on Jan 24, 2019 23:15:07 GMT 1, Wonder if the other H4 prints will hit the same/similar prices at auction. Andromeda appears to be the only one from the series not thrown on eBay or into an auction. Unless I've missed one? I think H4-2 is the most desirable.
H4-1,4 have been resold more than Invader prints at OTI.

Jeff Koons ๐บ๐ธ Balloon Dog โข Sculpture โข Art For Sale, by jluhiex on Jan 23, 2019 21:45:30 GMT 1, This was for the Hillary Action Fund. Donate $50k usd and get this print. Considering what a blue chipper Koons is the markup isn't ridiculously grotesque. Edition of 40 as most people tend to go for Koons sculptures (ie balloon dog plates etc).
His trajectory has been a bit stagnant lately similar to Hirst. They actually both fired a ton of assistants so we'll see where he goes. Hirst seems to be re-inventing himself with his new heni editions and spot prints...Koons has his LV collaborations etc.

Framing a large Harland Miller, by jluhiex on Jan 22, 2019 8:05:41 GMT 1, Hi, I was just recently gifted the large version of Harland Millerโs โiโll Never forget what I canโt rememberโ. It is arriving in a couple of days and I want to get it framed ASAP but have no experience with pieces at this price level. I have a professional gallery that I use in town, but I donโt know what I should be doing with it to make sure it remains in pristine condition or what I should tell them if I take it there. Obviously I know to use museum glass but what else should I say to them or look to purchase in a frame to maintain its value? Many thanks and I apologize for my ignorance:)
They won't frame anything that large in glass.
Don't take it to a gallery, they will just take it to a framer and upcharge you.
HM standard framing is white and typically floated. If you matte it will cover the details on the edge of the print.
If you're serious ask around for a reputable framer. If you're really serious then you will frame it with Optium UV plexi. If its the larger print you're looking at 2k usd minimim to frame it in Optium.

INVADER first solo show in Los Angeles since 2005, by jluhiex on Dec 20, 2018 23:19:51 GMT 1, Whole sentence reads: It's a great time for invader collectors to pick up amazing prints like sunset and this kit for an extremely reasonable price prior to the show opening. ...I interpret that as available for sale before the opening. prior to the show opening. I was able to pick up multiple releases
There's a period in between the sentences. I read it the way you did too initially but I'm pretty sure he wasn't implying he got some VIP treatment from OTI...unless of course he purchased an OG.
Think he meant prices are still reasonable prior to show opening because afterwards his prices will skyrocket like PEJAC. He needs some work on sentence composition but I really doubt a VIP would openly admit to having access to pre-sale without knowingly jeopardizing future purchases.
First rule of VIP pre-sale club...

INVADER first solo show in Los Angeles since 2005, by jluhiex on Dec 20, 2018 23:04:45 GMT 1,
There is not a doubt in my mind these will go up. Invader was introduced to lots of people recently who have no interest in urban art, period. These people are looking to make a quick buck and do not have the capital to hold pieces nor do they have the desire to do so.
Yes, prices will be low due to the volume released recently, but the market will stabilize over time. In no way will these be available anywhere near cost in a year or 2.
Like I said, there is a strategy to what artists like Invader are doing. He is not going to purposely kill his market and have his clientele lose interest. There is a method to this madness. It's a great time for invader collectors to pick up amazing prints like sunset and this kit for an extremely reasonable price prior to the show opening. I was able to pick up multiple releases and couldn't be happier about the costs, but in now way do I think that prices will always be this good, they will undoubtedly blast back up over time and he will be more valuable than ever.
...prior to the show opening? Are you saying you got a Sunset and this kit pre-release? prior to the show opening. I was able to pick up multiple releases

INVADER first solo show in Los Angeles since 2005, by jluhiex on Dec 20, 2018 22:23:02 GMT 1, is it naughty to take these out of the packaging and frame? do people not like this when it's time to sell? Very naughty. The soul of the kit gets released when you unseal the anti-static bag.
The smart play is to keep it sealed if you want maximum value...but why not enjoy it for 5,10 years displayed proudly at a 20%(?) loss in value.

INVADER first solo show in Los Angeles since 2005, by jluhiex on Dec 20, 2018 22:06:39 GMT 1, There is one on the bay for $3250 ATM. If it goes up further then please feel free to revise the numbers. But this release was meant to eat into flippers' margins. And let's be real here, the amount being made per set of tiles can be earned within a day or two by the majority by just going to work. Optimistic at 3500? You won't be able to find these in 6 months for under 6k, but that is just my opinion. Give it a year and most likely the market will have dried up again, give it 2 years and who knows where prices will be again. I've heard he won't be releasing anything for 2 years after this year from some pretty reliable sources, but that is just what i've heard. He released a lot of pieces, market is pretty flooded right now, prices are very low, but I definitely think there is a strategic play that artists such as invader are very aware of within the market.
If you can get in on this kit at 4500 or less right now, I would consider it a decent entry level price point for a kit, especially one this great.
You seem to forget that we live in a society where flipping is a profession and people buy stuff just to post on IG to flex...with zero savings, house, assets etc. Whatever makes people happy right?

Jonas Wood โข VOTE, by jluhiex on Dec 20, 2018 21:31:35 GMT 1, You've got to be a tool to not think you'd get flamed for posting this...or you're just trolling.
You could've just said: For long term storage. Would it be better to leave in original packaging? Or take it out and put it in an archival print protector sleeve?
I was able to score an extra and would like to store it.
Thanks in advance.
Or some bullshit excuse like
-no wall space -art police doesn't approve
-no money for framing -dog has seizures looking at it
But to answer your question if the print is wrapped in archival kraft paper it's totally fine. No acid, no bleeding etc. Acrylics and oils need to breathe.
