WLTB Stik Book Print, by WOOF on Jan 29, 2016 22:10:03 GMT 1, bang on almost, 3k (spoke to Mark) Feeling sick i didn't get one when offered for 1400 but as i seem to recall that month was a pretty expensive one art wise for me Well what can they do, They have to go buy the market rate which unfortunately seems to have been dictated by a debatable ebay auction on a book print. So little gets sold by those who buy so you have to refer to something. You also need to filter out those who are serious buyers. That price is stupid, IMO. Especially when the print being sold is a "printers proof" of a screen print edition that was either never released, or never printed in the first place.
Makes liberty seem like a bargain, especially considering how much bigger it is. And the fact that it's actually an artist-released edition.
edit: and I say all that as a big stik fan.

WLTB Stik Book Print, by Fะฏ on Jan 29, 2016 22:22:29 GMT 1, Not to create any conflict here, but that is different from saying 400-500 cheaper than 'other sales'. I can understand why there are so many individuals in this forum who accuse Stik fans of hyping prices. As someone once told me referring to his young graduate trader in the city - 'He knows the price of everything but the value of nothing' This is the range most quoted who owned one. one known gallery has one for ยฃ3500 which is way over the top. Nothing articifial here and thoese owners can vouch for this.

WLTB Stik Book Print, by Coach on Jan 29, 2016 22:27:51 GMT 1, I think the constant chatter about the value of prints, whether it be Stik or Banksy risks bringing this forum into disrepute. It seems like it's almost every other post.

WLTB Stik Book Print, by .dappy on Jan 29, 2016 22:40:58 GMT 1, I think that there are really only specific threads that talk about it a lot ... but if you use 'Recent threads' as 'your go to' ... you do not need to read them if you do not wish to ...
... still have my canvas on offer for over ยฃ3,250 ... all PMs replied to ...

Well at least I hope it does

People buying art for the love of art, perhaps? By the way, what's my sweettoof worth?

Indeed, I just meant generally. Dappy might be right. Maybe I need to find another way of viewing the forum, having always used recent posts. But I do think that it is a little sad that the direction of the forum seems to be towards investment and away from the appreciation of art and the sharing of information. There are, of course, still plenty of people here who are interested in the later. I'll plod on. My apologies for a Chablis fueled moan!

Although I kinda bypass from the title, this one was close. Thing is these are sales, wanted and price check threads which appear in the recent threads. its where people are meant to talk about it but i dont think it can be separated from recent posts or threads.
