Kaws • Blame Game • 10 Print Set, by Eric Pause on Aug 9, 2016 19:36:41 GMT 1, Interesting. I've never heard of this set either. Even if it was only offered privately you'd think at least a photo would have popped up somewhere in the last two years, especially with an edition of 100. Hmmm.

I thought the same thing. Have never seen this before or even knew it existed.
Unless it was offered privately with some type of no-resale no picture agreement? Which seems unlikely as it's an edition of 100.
Maybe it never officially got released?

Kaws • Blame Game • 10 Print Set, by slipry on Aug 9, 2016 20:45:17 GMT 1, Very, very weird ; surely somebody here has to know something about it. We own two of the 10 print portfolios from Brian, but never ever heard a peep about BLAME GAME. There is no provenance or printer/publisher statement in that posting as well. Could Paddle 8 with the new merger actually been duped by somebody? Scary if so ....

It's a nice set, but does seem odd that no one seems to know anything about it. Zero info on google about it either.

They've been duped with fake Kaws before... Might be!

Kaws • Blame Game • 10 Print Set, by Deleted on Aug 9, 2016 21:09:30 GMT 1, I've been offered one of these sets before, back in January maybe. We called it 'the white portfolio' not knowing the real name.
Was told not to share photos at the time. Was asked for $45k.
edit: the person who offered it to me is very trustworthy and well-connected.

Kaws • Blame Game • 10 Print Set, by slipry on Aug 9, 2016 21:52:37 GMT 1, Thanks for all the information as my inquiring mind was really peaked! There must be 100 sets out there in the hands of friends, family, service vendors, maybe a financial advisor or two, maybe Pharell 
I would like to have been on that list. Maybe there was an NDA with the set upon the gifting of them ? Who knows ...

Amazing how they're keeping their value... Does that show the demand, or something else!?

It would kind of make sense why we haven't seen or heard anything from this if one person commissioned the entire set.

Kaws • Blame Game • 10 Print Set, by Happy Shopper on Aug 12, 2016 11:04:31 GMT 1, Can't be many people that could commission a set of 10 prints in an Edition of 100!
I wonder if they were created as crazy expensive gifts, rather than to be sold at all?

I can understand kaws creating a commissioned set of 10 prints for someone but not a commissioned edition of 100 sets of 10. Doesn't make sense really, unless they guy is an authorised reseller or something?

thats nothing. If you want to be amazed, watch how long a full set of signed LA edition Banksy's (from a reputable source) last on this forum...

Mainly, this is not an official release and the owner does not intend to make $ out from this release...

Anyone else notice they dropped the starting bid from $40K to $36K?

I'm in for one hehe. I see they lowered the starting price to 36k but that would still be around 43k after fees. His sets seem to hover around that or a little less at auction but this set has so many weird variables, can't tell if that is a good price or not.
