Os Gemeos @99prints, by bmerel on Jan 30, 2014 4:19:00 GMT 1, CNN is reporting it was Justin Bieber he purchased it high as sin playing crash up derby with a stolen Maserati. So chances are the sale might not hold much water but I could be wrong. Bieber IS most likely the buyer. Bieber is going to corner the market. He's a jazz musician stuck in a very confused mind, body and soul!!!
I AM A BELIEBER.
I'm sure he will take this one as well...

Os Gemeos @99prints, by Deleted on Jan 30, 2014 8:12:05 GMT 1, I always find it funny that street art, art that was "born on the streets." Democratic art, often anti-consumerist and made for "everyone" is actually just a scene filled with hundreds of thousands of rabid fans literally obsessed with owning limited editions for their interior walls. Whose lives somehow seem incomplete without a signed print they can own and consume and covet and flip for something better next year. Fans who continually defend the high prices demanded for these street art prints, whose editions generally trade at higher premiums than their contemporary artist counterparts. Don't blame 99 prints or os gemeos for manufacturing hype. They don't need to do that because all of you people have done it for them. It's the 10,000 posts on the Banksy forum and other forums that is the hype. It's all so ironic. Gotta agree with you cornholio. This thread to me says much more about consumerism than it does about art. The "Urban Investment Association", as Klow puts it, the " Urban Art Shopping Mall" that I can't get past seeing it as anymore just can't get enough of these threads. Brainwash anyone? It's not the twins fault and I do love their street work. Hopefully this release will just give them more money to go and do more good in the world. ![](http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad269/happymealpics/syria_un_refugees_zps561c84be.jpg)

Os Gemeos @99prints, by shortcut on Jan 30, 2014 12:33:53 GMT 1, I haven't had a refund email, or an order confirmation, or any replies from 99prints yet....but they've still taken โฌ4020 off my credit card - not the happiest bunny Just a heads up, if you're in the same situation as I am, it's likely you will eventually receive an email saying the payment process went wrong and you won't be getting a print. Allegedly this happened to 100's of people and hence the delay replying.
However, 99prints are telling me the payment didn't go through, when my credit card company confirm it did - so it would probably be wise to initiate a charge back claim, as they think they have nothing to refund.

But only because the pound will drop so much in value that 21k is actually worth like 5 euros.

on the other hand, I just got a tracking number from FedEx! It is expected to be delivered tomorrow (I am in the USA)? If they are really overnighting these, that would be amazing. Granted, for what we paid....

Os Gemeos @99prints, by Winter on Jan 30, 2014 18:24:36 GMT 1, I think the way 99prints are dealing with things is really bad. They allow over ordering then don't apologise, have no contact phone number, seem to be screwing up credit card payments. Given the amount people are prepared to pay they should be delivering a far better service. Just reading what people are saying about them, I find it amazing they aren't receiving more criticism.

Os Gemeos @99prints, by BKBOI on Jan 30, 2014 18:30:23 GMT 1, I did send them a message on drop day regarding oversells. I received a reply last night explaining about the glitch in their system and that my order was safe. I also got a notification email of change of status to preparation in progress.
People who have orders now are just nervous because of how much the real value of the print is at this point. That congratulations letter is an automatic extra 5k usd (at least) on the assets side of your balance sheet.

Ebay listings are automatically entered as they finish. Private sales, on the other hand, are all up to the seller to list or not. Its a good way of trackingโฆat least ebay listings, that is.

Looking at the sales figures I was curious how accurate they were because they had the old OG print on there selling for 1000-1200 for an edition of 1001 and size of 8x10. If that accurate I am sure most of you can do the math for yourself. Besides those content with just bashing any mention of this being a decent release.
