Pick your poison I guess, what's worse not being able to even get a chance to buy a print or not being able to afford one

Best and most honest post so far in this thread.

Best and most honest post so far in this thread. In fairness, those 'fools' that bought the print to flip are probably pretty happy with their foolishness considering the one auction (not the BINs) is already >6k GBP. Those of us who really liked the print and have been seeking something from the twins for ages are also pretty happy being 'fools' having something pretty special in our collections.
As to the way the money is being handled, I think only the people this affected can really speak to it. I'd probably be pretty pissed as well but having a print certainly colours my opinion of the gallery.

Best and most honest post so far in this thread. I beg to disagree. I am only a relatively new collector but did some snooping around. People had access to the test site last week and if people tried to go through the checkout process, you would learn that paypal payment would go to JRSA.... now you know that the website is JR's operation since he is also doing the promotion for the release... really dodgy operation right here. Since I approached the "right" people here in the forum, they were kind enough to share the image of the print to me and gave me a price of 4020 euros approximately 12 hours before the release. I was ready to pay that price.

for everyone complaining, you need to learn to relax. don't play with the big boys if you can't handle it.

I was trying to lighten up the thread a bit but it's clearly gone over a lot of heads.

Chatted with someone on here a while ago about the two stunning paintings at Somerset House. The Unkown Modigliani exhibition at the Royal Academy back in 94 was one of my favorite exhibitions. That was mostly drawings and sketches.
