Printers proof vs Regular edition, by dueuomo on Feb 26, 2014 3:24:37 GMT 1, I have another suggestion to ask:
I got offered a printers proof (signed and numbered with COA) and a regular edition, is there any clear consensus on which one I should take? They look the same. Should I go for the cheapest? Or the PP is more valuable?
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

I think this has been covered in a thread before somewhere.
It depends on what the edition is.
The PP's are supposed to be the first ones run out as tests, but I have a feeling that they have become a smaller edition of an edition nowadays.
If they are different colors, or have a different finish of some sort then that may make them more desirable and therefore drive up the price.
If they look exactly the same then I personally would go for the regular edition as would seem better value.
Don't think there will be a consensus - do what you think make sense to you

Printers proof vs Regular edition, by dueuomo on Feb 26, 2014 3:52:02 GMT 1, thanks much for your response. The seller/distributor told me that there were 10 AP taken by the artist and 10PP that he kept in addition to the regular edition...

Printers proof vs Regular edition, by sakyamuni on Feb 26, 2014 8:29:50 GMT 1, I would think like Pipes. Unless there is any difference there is no point spending the extra money, although some do and seem quite happy about it I only have one (herakut) and bought it because the regular edition was sold out. I'd rather pay the extra to get an original than an AP or PP.

I agree with this, although in some instances an original is going to be so far away that I will opt for a PP or AP in particular if it has been hand finished / anotated by the artist.
I have just bought something for exactly this reason and its amazing, as good as an original for a fraction of the price. or so I keep telling myself!
It's just gone to the framers and will post pics when it returns!

PP everyday of the week ! Same here, prefeer PP, Ap and smaller runs of prints than the larger original edition. If they have a different colour like the 12 etd mushroom girl by Dolk or the PP of Er by Martin Whatson that i have uppgraded to ower the last year, will have a Kitty R With the different colour in future. Would love the PP of Andrenalin-s by DALeast on the wall for the regular that i sold on here. |

Printers proof vs Regular edition, by dono on Mar 1, 2014 10:05:48 GMT 1, example come from the after the rain by eelus: after reg edition 'after the rain' go on market
several PP, thats regular edition is preferred on this as they are the same print, and PP its some kind
of repress imo.
in the case of see what i saw by eelus i got a PP from the red variant edition.., thats
more interesting as a numbered edition, because was a print proof of a variant edition.
