$1000 Conor Harrington New York Print, by WOOF on Sept 29, 2014 21:11:52 GMT 1, Gletek was decent enough to stand by his offer, I'm not sure I would've done the same had I been confronted by several willing sellers (flipping scum, deriving a charity of money) @ $1000.00. EB is open to manipulation (high and low), ably demonstrated by Ebtroll. A few e-bay sales to get things off the ground are pretty easy to push through too, in the same way as an expensive bottle of Tequilla gets things off the ground at a party - worth the initial investment every time?
What in the crap are you talking about saying they're depriving a charity of money? The charity will get the money promised. Don't pretend that's the reason you're so up in arms.

Off course i stood by my offers just hours later. I dont actually feel that i payed more than i should.
Had i not made a move at once but wanted a few weeks - months im not sure it will be valued less then $1000.
I think this print will be framed by quite a few and not seen so often for sale in the future.

$1000 Conor Harrington New York Print, by vei on Sept 29, 2014 21:13:00 GMT 1, I recon he may have 600 dollars is a good profit for an hours work. You'd have to make over 1100 dollars on ebay to come out with a 1000 dollars after ebay fees. That's forgetting paypal fees. I don't know if he has or hasn't got one tho. Definitely confused re: what you meant by this. My basic point is that the average sold price is $990, and that's including ebtroll's beautiful price manipulation (factoring in one sold at $500). Combining this with the lack of prints for sale on ebay and EB, I concluded that finding one under $1,000 may prove difficult. I hope I'm wrong, as I'd like jalternation to get one of these at a great price.
Sorry, what I was saying was that it was entirely possible for someone to pick one up at a grand or less. The price is dipping now as it always does after the adrenaline of the release fades.
Don't get me wrong if you bought one from the show, you'll always be able to sell it at a good profit. A very good profit. The price just slips
but then if it's a good print it goes back up over time. If you bought a print for the love of the print then that's not a problem.

Wasn't talking about selling mine; don't see that happening in the foreseeable future (unless someone wants to trade me a Fight Club). And not really concerned with relative value re: what I paid, since obviously I'm feeling good about having bought the print at the show.
I thought you were implying that the prices will dip well below $1000, which is something I don't necessarily agree with. I think he can get one for $1000, hopefully somewhat less. But I just don't see these selling for $800 or lower. Not a price slipping thing, more a matter of "I'd never sell it for that much because I like it"

Because you seem to think there is some magical way to sell a print where flippers don't exist and all possible profits generated go directly to the source. That is not reflective of an open market, or the world we live in, therefore your complaints are likely coming from another place. That is what the casual observer would believe. Or you're naive, which I don't think you are. |

No offense taken. The question posed to nosnereb was so obvious that I felt a casual observer could respond and answer your question as sufficiently.

Cool we agree. About the slippage anyway. I agree unlikely to go sub 800 dollars but may head that way. Either way out of range of my funds.
Ultimately love the print and it will love you back.

Dude I said is was unlikely, whys everyone going off on one.
It's like everyone's fighting on here. Two blokes having a punch up or something.
Sounds like an idea for a picture

$1000 Conor Harrington New York Print, by Deleted on Sept 29, 2014 21:31:59 GMT 1, And frankly, this print release was conducted in the best manner that I've ever seen in my life.
Surprise release at the show, where it will likely be only fans. All for charity, no money going to the artist or anyone else. Once word got out, they apparently held some back to sell later for charity, so people who bought to flip the next morning were minimal. That's as close to perfection as I've ever seen from a release.

$1000 Conor Harrington New York Print, by Deleted on Sept 29, 2014 21:32:38 GMT 1, Fair enough, it's an open forum and I respect other people's view.
Most people 'get it' that if a print was sold for the express benefit of a charity, then there is something which might cause some indigestion among some people where that is then re-sold immediately for a profit? The seller (especially in this case) specifically bought the print to flip and this prejudices the intent of the print.
To be blunt, I think that's the actions of a c**t.
Nosereb has jumped to the incorrect conclusion that I'm bothered about the resale price of the print, which I'm not. I would not chose to line a persons pockets with those characteristics but thats just me, I do have the resource to do so but I won't. Ever.

Haha I think we're on the same side, don't worry. I was just saying I personally wouldn't care if it went below $800, because a) I don't care about the value of my print since I like it for what it is, and b) it would allow other people on here to get the print.
We're in agreement. I love you, man/woman.

That's completely understandable. But this is also something that is driven by economic self-interest over the value of art; it will be impossible to filter out these people from an art show. People may be there for the art and like the image for $400, and then see it on ebay going for $1,000 and decide they don't like the image that much. And there will always be a profiteer who happens to be a fan of art culture.
I'd say the argument is almost similar to being upset that murder exists; it is terrible behavior, but an aspect of human nature that is almost impossible to predict or eradicate, and is thus inevitable. I think the effort to minimize such profiteering through how the release was conducted here was great.

I don't think people should profit out of a charity print, its just not right. They could sell it at a higher figure than they bought it, if they donate the profit to a charity.
i guess people can get all intellectual about it to justify it, but Morally its wrong in my little book of things right and wrong

its not like its a new thing and it doesn't just happen in the print world, the entire art market is manipulated. just be smart, use your head when buying and in most cases don't buy anything right after it sells out.
Whats to indicate the sales of this print on ebay are false? Or is the point that its just possible. i have no clues about this sale or any sale but that's the point you never know. you would be kidding yourself if you don't think people are manipulating sales in every way possible. a lot of money at stake for a lot of people. its not like its a new thing and it doesn't just happen in the print world, the entire art market is manipulated. just be smart, use your head when buying and in most cases don't buy anything right after it sells out. |

$1000 Conor Harrington New York Print, by Deleted on Sept 29, 2014 21:43:26 GMT 1, So what is it you're angry about? Because the charity is still getting it's 40k... I don't think people should profit out of a charity print, its just not right. They could sell it at a higher figure than they bought it, if they donate the profit to a charity. i guess people can get all intellectual about it to justify it, but Morally its wrong in my little book of things right and wrong
I think this is a thin line of morality. It also is counter-intuitive, as a profiteer would not go out of his way to purchase a print, resell it, and then donate all of the profits to charity; he is then working for free.
Ideally, I'd like to see all of them donate some portion of the profits to charity, although even that is unlikely. Expecting any of them to donate all of the profits to charity is logically against the nature of their actions.

$1000 Conor Harrington New York Print, by vei on Sept 29, 2014 21:47:01 GMT 1, I love you too, let's get married, then divorced, then I can get that print in the divorce courts. Man buy the way, but that's probably why we're getting divorced. I don't know; I'm straight (and have nothing against the LGBT community), but maybe you can turn me. My heart is open, baby.
Well my Mrs said I'm heartless
I replied that would make me a Zombie, cause I'd be dead but I'm still walking.

My collection of walking dead box sets ended up in the bin/trash. I ended up in the spare room.

Uggggh so sick of all the talk of $$ on this forum You might want to avoid the place in December and January, when artists tend to do a lot of releases for Xmas money, and we all realise in January we spent too much... |
