: free Faile sunglasses at Brooklyn Artists Ball tonight, by coller on Apr 15, 2015 12:36:33 GMT 1, Seems like these sunglasses are being given out for free at the BK Artists Ball tonight at the Brooklyn Museum; I can't go b/c tickets are a bit pricey for my life right now, but would really really love one of these pairs of sunglasses.
If anyone is going and can grab me a pair, I'd be really grateful - I can come pick it up from you tomorrow or maybe late tonight since I live in NYC. Will wear them throughout the Summer, I promise.
Please don't hesitate to PM me if you can help me out! Can possibly ease things with some cash, would rather have it gratis since it doesn't seem to require much effort.
Nevermind, looks like there weren't many pairs there anyway. Glad we all had fun in this thread though!

You must realize that your logic makes no sense at all right? 1) I won the piece of art in a contest that required performing tasks; 2) this occurred about nine months ago.
Do you go around asking people to trade their Hirst challenge prints for sticker packets? Or their GP Mini-Chinooks for an open edition print b/c the Chinooks was free and the open edition costs money? Or ask the guy who won the charity Flags auction to trade his Flags for $100 because that's what the most he could have donated? Or ask anyone who has ever won a piece of desired art ever to sell/trade it for free items?
No you probably/hopefully don't, because it's ridiculous and makes no sense.
If you think you're helping then I guess that's admirable, but you're really not helping anyone and just starting arguments with every post you make.

Yes, a Hanksy original is worth more than a pair of Faile sunglasses in my opinion. I'm sorry if you disagree, or if I don't share your tendency to categorize all items attained without monetary exchange as being equal in value. |

Agreed! I'd absolutely rather have the sunglasses over anything Hanksy, even a Hanksy original.

By putting up an thread for a pair of free sunglasses? Apparently, yes.
Or maybe by stating that, in my opinion, a pair of free sunglasses are worth less than a Hanksy original. I guess that opinion is too aggressive for this place, apologies.

The forum was better when you were paranoid about your IP address.
And the NBF is great.

Can I just ask you why you think somebody would pay a lot of money to attend an event then give you their Faile glasses ? and then why you expect somebody to buy your Hanksy for cash ?

Overall, they seemed like cheap knock-off Ray-Bans that were handed out readily at the event; if they're actual items of significant value then clearly I was mistaken and the trade would have been more appropriate.

I wasn't expecting anyone to go buy a ticket just for the sake of getting me sunglasses; that would be ridiculous. I was hoping that someone on here was already attending (for the other thousand reasons one might want to attend this event) and could grab me a pair from the likely gigantic bowl of free sunglasses at the event. I even figured there might be one or two artists on here who got free admission, so it'd really be no sweat for them; probably was wrong with that part.

I do hope the lenses have the appropriate EN 1836:2005, or the US ANSI Z80.3-2001 rating, has anyone checked?
Be careful out there

: free Faile sunglasses at Brooklyn Artists Ball tonight, by coller on Apr 16, 2015 22:09:20 GMT 1, Again, I was under the impression - and still am - that it was very easy for anyone attending to grab an extra pair. I still don't see any indication that this isn't the case. They say 'Made in China' right on them and have no Ray-Ban logo, so do not think they are genuine Ray Bans or even have good lenses.
If someone had commented that they were one per person, then that would have greatly changed my post - then, offering money would seem much more appropriate b/c I'd be asking someone to essentially give me their only pair rather than grab a second as a quick favor.
Did anyone genuinely think I was requesting someone to buy a $100 ticket and go to this event only to get me sunglasses? I don't think that is a logical reading of my first post, at all.

: free Faile sunglasses at Brooklyn Artists Ball tonight, by A.R.T. on Apr 16, 2015 22:22:51 GMT 1, People like to keep items like these as a keepsake. You have to remember this was an artist event that collectors attended. It's not like the NYC ballet events where some of the attendees didn't really care about the "free" blocks. My advice is to keep an eye on eBay. I'm sure a pair might show up on there.

You have to remember this was an artist event that collectors attended. It's not like the NYC ballet events where some of the attendees didn't care less about the "free" blocks. My advice is to keep an eye on eBay. I'm sure a pair might show up on there.
I understand the keepsake thing; I guess a lot of this boils down to whether or not they were really one-per-person. Was definitely not implying that someone should give me their one pair for free; I figured everyone would have their own keepsake if they went, and they could just grab another pair easily and wouldn't care about doing such. Kind of like a show flyer.
I also thought there would be more attendees who view it as an NYC Ballet event since it was a $100-ticket "artist's ball" dance party, but that's irrelevant (and probably incorrect, at least for the crowd that hangs on here).
Overall, I was under the impression they were free and readily available to any attendee; this is the pretext under which I made my post. Was looking for a quick easy favor; do not even want them enough to spend serious ebay money. Didn't expect this to become a big deal, at all.

: free Faile sunglasses at Brooklyn Artists Ball tonight, by A.R.T. on Apr 16, 2015 22:31:59 GMT 1, Comparing the Artist Ball to the NYC ballet is a wrong assumption. Two totally different clientele. And if you honestly were hoping someone would get you a pair for free, then that is a BIG hope. Like I said, there are sure to be some pairs to pop up for sale, but it's highly unlikely someone will give you a pair for free. Just look at the coozies and stickers that were given for free to VIPs at the Deluxx Flux Miami event. Nobody was giving those away for free even though they were given away to attendees.

: free Faile sunglasses at Brooklyn Artists Ball tonight, by coller on Apr 16, 2015 22:39:55 GMT 1, Comparing the Artist Ball to the NYC ballet is a wrong assumption. Two totally different clientele. And if you honestly were hoping someone would get you a pair for free, then that is a BIG hope. Like I said, there are sure to be some pairs to pop up for sale, but it's highly unlikely someone will give you a pair for free. Just look at the coozies and stickers that were given for free to VIPs at the Deluxx Flux Miami event. Nobody was giving those away for free even though they were given away to attendees.
I was wrong to assume someone would give me a pair for free, as that clearly is not the case. I'm a little surprised/disappointed that people at Deluxx Flux weren't willing to grab extra stickers for people for free; that seems like a normal favor for any show. Unless the stickers were one per person?

Just to clarify, I meant the Faile ballet specifically; I think that and the Artist Ball have similar clientele. Not trying to start an argument, just people in the city seem to go to any ball/gala event regardless of content so I'm guessing there were a fair deal of party-goers the other night who went just for fun without knowing much about the artists.
