To the person sending BS offers to me on ebay talking shit, by sgolby on Oct 22, 2014 22:35:52 GMT 1, Then let's agree to disagree... There are surely more than just one reason for them being made... Sometimes when making an argument I hyper focus on one reason rather than all of them... it helps, as I have serious ADD. As to investment, I have zero problem with that as I said. S Agreeing to disagree a thoughtful solution, one would think a forum on art would have more of this! Indeed... Indeed...

I think that flipping is... Aw f*ck it, I'm gonna go smoke a joint.

Sometimes, I sell things at market value. That's what ebay is for.
You're right, I bet there are 1 or 2 that would love it at cost. I'd love Invader Aladdin Sane at cost. That's probably not gonna happen for me either.

Selling it now doesn't negate that fact.

I've bought plenty of prints sold some at cost, some at big losses and others for a gain. All part of collecting and enjoying art. It evens out over time.

People are always going to try to make money. It is what it is. You were, most likely. But I bought the zebra because I like the print and wanted to frame it, not to resell. Selling it now doesn't negate that fact. Listen, I don't care what anyone does with their money. You could resell every print that you buy and that would be just fine for you. Sometimes I get prints I want, and other times I don't get them. Luckily I'm in a position where I don't need to make money on selling prints that I have ended up with that I don't want - So, I just buy things I know will end up on a wall.
The fact that you're selling, for profit, at market value, multiple prints that you've bought in the past few months, and others probably wanted at cost but couldn't get, makes you a flipper. Not that it makes you a bad person, but you're buying prints that real fans could have bought, and selling them/ trying to sell them for hundreds of dollars of profit back to those who would have loved to buy them originally. I don't like it, but I don't think you're a bad person for doing it.

To the person sending BS offers to me on ebay talking shit, by chitownhero on Oct 23, 2014 2:17:44 GMT 1, Facts will remain that once you purchase an item, regardless of what it is, it is yours to sell at a value you deem reasonable. It is up to the buyer to make the purchase and provide the market value.
It is no one else's business but the person providing the piece of art for sale. What they do is no different than galleries charging $5000 for a print.
Argue this all you guys want- you are wrong and this will stand as fact. Capitalism is the only way to go.
I deal with idiots from eBay on a daily basis. You just have to know who to call at the company to get done what needs to be done. I get bogus offers and 'bids' on items daily- guess what happens? Their account disappears. Might not seem like a big deal but unless you're somewhat tech savvy, you're unable to use their site with any other type of username.
I'm proud to say I flip pieces that I deem worthy of such. I'm also proud to say those pieces bring in exorbitant margins in the range of $2500 profit per day, just from eBay.
Be your own gallery. Take all the hate you can possibly take. It only provides hype and market inflation.

Personally, I take that as an insult when everyone is classified as a flipper. Because you're not. Selling prints for $20-30 above cost is not flipping by any means.
But, those flippers sure enjoy their value menu, I am sure of it!
