OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by BKBOI on Feb 10, 2014 20:24:36 GMT 1, If people really wanna buy hold tight for a bit and buy just over cost in a few months. Totally true since the nos somos penta print can definitely be bought for cost right now. There were 30000 hits on 99prints.net during the drop. no hype, just numbers shared to me by the owner of the website. Where do you see nos somos penta print at cost?? Sorry, totally forgot to use the sarcasm font. Ask anyone who has the nos somos print if they can hook you up for cost because that is what the consensus is on Os Gemeos pieces..... they don't flip.

Totally true since the nos somos penta print can definitely be bought for cost right now. There were 30000 hits on 99prints.net during the drop. no hype, just numbers shared to me by the owner of the website. That doesn't sound like much considering how poorly the site behaved. I would have accounted for at least 500 of those hits. How many unique visitors? How many of those tried to buy after seeing the image and the price.
I have no problem with someone flipping it. That is a lot of money. I tired but didn't get it. Had I got it and had a chance to trade for something I liked more, why not?
No need for all the hype or downplay. All I read when ebtroll or others hype it up is "I have one and want to protect its value". No need to keep on and on about it.

its like fookin groundhog day coming on here, you've been hyping up this print since the release, constantly going on about the price saying how valuable its gonna be blah blah blah... going on about the print like you found the cure for cancer.
the fact that they will struggle to achieve retail price soon and flippers will be forced to cash in when credit card bills start coming in..... fun times ahead.

In my case I chose an original invader on paper over this print. In my opinion having a unique original was far better than having something from an edition. I really do like the os gemeos print though. Understandable that ebtroll an others wants to protect there 'investment' by hypin it up as he just spent 4020€ on an edition of 99?

This banh mi is so good. works so well with the taro bubble tea.

However this is a relatively open forum, the anonymous equivalent of the urban art speakers corner, so it's hardly surprising that some flack can be expected, this is probably wholly deserved if any seller quotes and expects to receive ebay prices without any acknowledgement that they perhaps should discount due to no fees payable?...
The sun will rise tomorrow, or at least it will become lighter.
There is no way that man landed on the moon, that's a load of old space race bollocks.

however you're placing a lot of faith in assuming that if someone were to come here and say "hey i know they're selling at $11,500 avg on eBay but since I'm here with no fees owed, I'll discount it to $10,000 flat", everyone here would cause the site to shut down from the clamor of internet applause.

But you're missing the fact that those vociferous members here want either face-cost or nothing. That's the extent of their negotiability (whether they even have real money is debatable but irrelevant for this convo's purposes).

Pretty sure that is the case these days. Even if you sell a $50,000 item I am pretty sure the max for eBay's cut is $250.00.

One who isn't just in it for the money or one who realizes neither positive or negative comments on here will have any lasting effect on prices.
We are taking about prints here. Let's get some perspective in the art world prints are more like souvenir posters than original art. They almost never do well as an investment in the long run (50 years plus).
Enjoy the print. If you make some money on it great if not, that's life.
