old british street & underground sign, by hai on Sept 11, 2013 16:43:15 GMT 1, i found these sign at an estate sale in massachusett.
they were purchased by a tourist who went to london.
i am not sure when it was purchase. i assumed that it would be around the 80's or so.
i didnt say they were original.
i just wanted to know if anyone had any interests in these and if they had an interest they could trade me something for it.
i was not expecting an banksy in return - i was expecting to make some friends and hopefully do a some trading in a field that i like - ART! just like trading baseball cards when i was young.
ISN'T COLLECTING ART SUPPOSED TO BE FUN OR DID YOU ALL FORGET THAT?
ALSO DO ANYONE OF YOU PEOPLE EVER WORK OR IS WORK A FOUR LETTER WORD FOR Y'ALL?

Unfortunately Hai it's difficult not to take the piss when you're offering something that anyone can easily buy online... or a market... but it's fairly light hearted joshing. Don't take it seriously.. Y'ALL !

You cannot have honestly believed those signs were anything of worth and a little research on your part would have told you they were completely unauthentic, on the second hand market they are only worth pennys.

We love trading and will usually find someone who likes a deal but on here its usually a like for like swap although the last post that wasn't was a genuine Rolex for art swap.

old british street & underground sign, by treweman on Sept 11, 2013 23:52:03 GMT 1, Hai. I assume that you are reading these posts. I would like the Underground/Covent Garden Station sign. I don't really care that it is a reproduction. I don't want the other three. As these are not worth much money I'm not sure what I can trade, because most of the pieces in my collection are worth significantly more than the sign. On the other, I'm close, so shipping is easier and less expensive, and I'm willing to try to work with you.
As for your comment about working ... Don't be an ass. Where do you think many of us (myself included) get the money it takes to buy the art we love and collect?

just PM me and I will ship it to you at my cost. You can have all four sign too.
also- i truly do not know how valuable or not valuable these sign are. i make no speculation about it when i first post this listing.
if you read my first posting without assuming anything and take it as it is then you should know that there were no assumption made by me on value.
