Banksy's Santas Ghetto Bethlehem, by spenie1975 on Dec 11, 2007 18:18:35 GMT 1, Well bought nothing yet, not really seen anything that tickled my fancy. If people carry spending like they are then should be able to pick something nice later in the week.

Banksy's Santas Ghetto Bethlehem, by iwouldfollow youanywhere on Dec 11, 2007 18:20:46 GMT 1, As long as this chain has become, I'm sitting at work and bored so here's my $0.02 re: high prices. The moment these artists came inside and started putting work on canvas/paper, everything changed. Remember, these artists were the ones who had no voice. They had to reclaim public space (from advertisers, etc.) to make their views known. Now their work is purchased by celebrities and hanging in galleries. It's a different world for them. I know I'm stating the obvious and trying not to be condescending but there's no going back. It's like the cool indie band who signs a major label deal and becomes the biggest band in the land. Next, we'll see the hordes of followers ripping off the aesthetic for fame and fortune. The best that can be done (at this point) is to try and use the popularity of the genre to shine a light on issues that need it (i.e. Bethlehem). For that, well done POW. Am I bummed that the prices have gone sky high? You bet. Particularly considering that I used to go to the POW site just to enjoy the work on my screen and have a laugh. Remember, you couldn't give away prints like Toxic Mary. And so, I let them sit...at least a half dozen or more...for about 50 pounds each. Had I bought those then, I'd currently be writing to you from my vacation home on a lake somewhere. Oh well. I got in early enough I suppose. Early enough that I could still afford it and now I have a bunch of pictures on my walls that I REALLY enjoy (Banksy, Insect, Apish Angel, Bast, Vaucher, Hecox). It's been really fun and I've enjoyed every minute of it. If the scene has been discovered and we've all been pushed out by flippers and hedge fund managers, oh well. What's next? I'm excited to find out. Any ideas?
you have a fantastic philosophy, respect!

Is you Brain unique or is it from the edition of 100 that was sold on your own site?? Do you think it will increase in value? Is this anything to do with you apology brain edition that you sent out as an apology when your refunds went wrong? Oh god im so confused, will this increase in value over the next four weeks (I cant afford to own it longer thatn that). What do people think? Am I a brainless t**t if I buy Carlitos brain without consulting every member on this forum first? Carlito, I will PM you re your brain. Is it still in your cart?? C
unique altho was worth considerably more years ago...still a talking point to have on your wall and u never know one day maybe worth millions.....yeahhhhh right

Banksy's Santas Ghetto Bethlehem, by spirit on Dec 11, 2007 18:37:52 GMT 1, I was a bit dissappointed with the Bast today to be honest. Nice glitter etc but I like my Bast to be rough, dirty and hard (like my women!) whereas this release seems a bit mickey mouse :-). I don't really get the "cartoon character art" thing at all...
Well done to everyone that wanted one & got it tho'.

Banksy's Santas Ghetto Bethlehem, by headphonesex on Dec 11, 2007 18:47:56 GMT 1, to all those getting a lil uppity...we were all once new to the print scene...and as unlikely as it may sound now in all the wisdom you have garnered...you may have idly thought I hope this doesn't turn out to be worth f**k all when I'm splurging a fair old wad of cash...so yes a lil silly to ask..but hardly course for a public flogging ;D
I agree. ยฃ350 is for most people a full week's work. To pretend that you shouldn't have to consider whether it'll be worth ยฃ50 or ยฃ500 in the future is a bit daft. I used to worry about the same thing when buying a ยฃ75 Banksy!

Nice try Anthoz ;D but get your Banksy's out is about 4 times as long! - we are only 2 days in tho' so it might well end up that way by the end - should be a prize for that at the UAA!

Given the price, and the reaction to it on this thread, it's into the 'suspicious' category already.
