Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by Phear Loathing on Feb 6, 2014 17:48:07 GMT 1, I mean it takes b**** to come here and flip so quickly, but at least offer a discount compared to ebay... selling at the same cost or higher than the bay, when you are saving on fees seems like a double slap in the face. Maybe offer it for 9K USD here?
still wrong imo

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by Happy Shopper on Feb 6, 2014 18:06:55 GMT 1, A bit like CYW, I'm curious if they really sell for this much! It's a nice print, but they'll probably do more now... are people really paying so much?

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by eschiff on Feb 6, 2014 19:00:25 GMT 1, this will be a bargain in 2 years time once the flips have dried up...another 4 - 6 on here and ebay in the next couple months and then i guess they'd be resting in collectors hands. Save for Os Gemeos releasing a print every 6 months, at this price point, from IDEM in Paris, these aren't going down in value. And yes i have one!

Save for Os Gemeos releasing a print every 6 months, at this price point, from IDEM in Paris, these aren't going down in value. And yes i have one! There's really not a huge demand at this price point. The only way these will retain their value is if posts like yours continue unabated for 2 years. Which, if they don't release regular prints, won't happen. People just don't talk about them that often. Barry Mcgee would be a good comparison. People who can afford 10k for a print, can afford to buy original works. I think these will go the same way as Laz's Micallefs. I'd flip it now whilst you can. lol
And yes, I do own originals.

So. I guess like me you're saying who the hell knows. Suppose it doesn't matter much as it's on it's way to John Jones.
But I guess that's why you're whoring all that Norwegian tat? Trying to flip while the con is still working. Good on ya.

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by philw on Feb 6, 2014 20:53:50 GMT 1, Comparing Os Gemeos to Micallefs is crazy. The twins didn't have a meteoric rise to fame built by Hype. Additionally, the volume of Micallefs is enormous compared to the print volume of OG.
I don't know what the value will do and I don't care what the value does, but comments like this make you look idiotic.

But which other 4k "Street Art" print would you compare it to ? It's a print, it's urban art, it's ridiculously expensive. It's comparable.

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by chaserawr on Feb 6, 2014 21:15:39 GMT 1, Don't think this will be the Os Gemeos print to own after a while. I think they will release more and this one will be the ugly duckling of the bunch. They are very young in their art career, there will be much more time for prints. I would rather play 6-7k for the perfect one I want forever than 4k for the this.

Add edit:
The question is, will they release another print ever. I think they are better off just selling originals just like Banksy.

I do like that they released posters like the ones from ICA Boston. Everyone seemed happy with those releases and no one felt that they were left out.

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by Deleted on Feb 6, 2014 22:41:56 GMT 1, Who cares if you flip it or not? Don't have to justify your reasons. That's the world of collecting and if it's not then I want someone to offer a Banksy at original cost. Doubt it will happen but here's to hoping! It hardly constitutes collecting though does it?
Posting this thread is going to grind the gears of people who would've liked to buy at source and keep? This specific point seems to have been lost on some and this represents the people who cares if it's flipped or not.
I'd sooner boil my head in leper's puss than buy this from the OP but heh, each to their own......

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by sierrahotel on Feb 7, 2014 0:40:15 GMT 1, there's no point in being angry at this chap for attempting a flip. we've all bought prints from flippers. if you find yourself annoyed that you missed out on one of these at cost, you really have to ask yourself how much your regret is based on hype. it really is hard to see how this print is worth more than a stik original / 2 unsigned banksys/ 10 millo originals / 2 miss van originalsโฆ i'm expressing subjective bias of course.. but apart from rarity, what do these guys really offer that warrants such high prices?

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by Winter on Feb 7, 2014 13:33:51 GMT 1, I think many people were hoping this print would be cheaper so they could flip it. When the release price was so high they weren't so certain they could make a profit on it. If the secondary prices remain high the next time they release a print it will be far harder to get hold of one as the people buying to flip them will know they can make a profit.
I do think the majority of these will go into good collections though.

Perhaps. But I think also a lot of genuine art lovers and collectors were also disappointed the price was so high, as it meant they couldn't go for one to frame and put on their wall. But the price is entirely up to the artists and the print house. So I have no complaints.

Os Gemeos - The Other Side, by Deleted on Feb 8, 2014 8:00:48 GMT 1, Had they have been priced at ยฃ2000 on release, would they sell for ยฃ6500 now (if they are) though?
Or was the secondary market price set by the release price, if you see what I mean on this one. Either way if you increase the amount of any given commodity the price will fall and there seems to be a limited amount of people who are willing to pay this much money for non Banksy urban art prints.
My cat got it's paw stuck in the letter box last night, ยฃ750 vet bill for amputated toe. Now where's that new sales thread button.....
