RYCA ๐ฌ๐ง Ryan Callanan โข Star Wars โข Smiley โข New Release , by pimp on Jul 21, 2008 12:05:16 GMT 1, how is it 'fine' to overcharge for that heap of excrement?
people need to be made to think imo, or else they could end up spending money they don't have/cannot afford on something which is essentially worthless.
i love the "artists" description of his "inspiration" as being 'santas ghetto 2006'. i actually laughed out loud

But IIRC you have handed out plenty of abuse about artists in your time - you can't have an eine thread on here without you posting a pretty acerbic comment. Not to mention some of your comments about Damien Hirst in the past.

That's true. And I will dispute Damien Hirst's worth until he does something original, which I doubt. And I will continue to question Eine's work until a thunderbolt hit's me and I get it, but I won't hold my breath. Although I can see he has a future painting fairground rides.
Anyway, you are right when you say that I have dished out to other artists, and as everyone keeps on saying on here, we should have the right to do that. I am not actually standing up for the artist here. I have said that I don't like the piece and that I wouldn't buy it. My point is that the abuse that has been leveled at S-editions is out of order and way beyond expressing an opinion.
And who TF does pimp think he is, that he must enlighten people to the terrible mistake people may be about to make in purchasing a print that they have seen and liked, and are about to buy. Is that what we have to do now, whenever we want to buy something that we thought we liked we should ask other people first.
If S-editions are ripping people off as people here suggest then surely people will know this and not buy from them. And as everyone knows, if no one buy's from them then they will go out of business. On the other hand, if people like what they sell and can afford it then they have the right to buy what they want.

we must steer clear or being outright war of attrition but opinions should be valued !

The air up there in the rarified atmosphere where you live looking down on us mere mortals, must be pretty thin, because you are obviously not getting enough oxygen to your brains.
I take offence that we need people to tell us what is good and what is not, if sombody likes something, irrespective of the price they should buy it, if they can afford it, the choice is THIERS, it is up to the individual involved to decide if it is worth it or not, I personally wouldnt buy 95% of some of the dire scrawlings that are ofered on here as art, but obviously other people like it, thier choice.
If this had been put up by any other gallery, nothing ,if anything would have been said, before you shout your mouths off over this gallery, go and have a look at some of the other offerings available. and their prices, Dolk not so long ago put up a canvas, 1/6,of an overused image for ยฃ3K, very little was said about that. let us make our own minds up!!!
And I cant believ pezlow's post I honestly thought you were more mature than that!!

How can it be a mistake if somebody likes the image? After all maybe we havent all got your impeccable taste. Or are you talking purely investment value? because if the latter is your point, then I think nobody should buy anything at the moment, the way the market is.

Its very clear that a number of people are not particularly enamored by this print and I think that opinion has been well voiced.
I would say that the people that have bought this print clearly admire it greatly given the level of criticism from day one. To often the adverse is true were people buy prints based on hype and what appears to be the latest craze. Often bought with no other intention but to sell on for a profit.

I don't mean to be provocative here... but i took the email seriously... i had no idea it had no force, for example i thought the recent cartain prints were f**king s**t... and a pile of excrament, but i didn't really want to say that because I thought i might get banned under the above edict...
so fair enough... i guess we can say what we like after all, happy days!

I personally think its their marketing plan, better to be talked about than ignored.
also Dill, i think there was something about galleries overpromoting, anyone being insulting to another member etc. As to the damaging galleries sales and reputation, it cant be doing that to seditions as they keep coming back like a cold sore!!!

Interesting post! Of course we defend our artists' work - it's our job. As for us being insulting, that's a bit rich - have you read the abuse we put up with? The only time we have ever strayed into the territory was when we called someone an idiot after he said we lie about the work we have available. In any case, we have kissed and made up.
Overpromoting? We publicised one print 10 days ago. That hardly constitutes an assault on the art-loving members of this forum. By posting your comments you have managed to put it to the top of the front page again - couldn't you just have left it?
thing is, with a lot of other galleries, this thread would have been put to bed a while ago, the fact that they feel the need (rightly or wrongly) to 1) defend the work and 2) mildly insult fellow members will never go down well. I personally think its their marketing plan, better to be talked about than ignored. also Dill, i think there was something about galleries overpromoting, anyone being insulting to another member etc. As to the damaging galleries sales and reputation, it cant be doing that to seditions as they keep coming back like a cold sore!!!

Not sure why as an adult I make my own mind up. If I like I buy if I don't I don't. Galleries showing what they have too offer is irrelevant if you show no interest.
I'm not a fan of the work on offer but feel they get a real bum deal from the forum. If you don't like don't buy simple as. No need for the abuse on this board as late. It's a Banksy forum not the old Bailey. People just need to chill a little and enjoy what brought you here. Not fucking hatred!

Once again the taste police are out in force, throwing insults around, which are targeted at anyone who likes something they don't. Just because they dislike something, it means everyone else should, or is wrong to disagree with them! No doubt the same muppets that reference freedom of speech when they're asked to treat others with a little respect and common decency! Reading S-Edition's sales threads always shows the true colours of some members. It's especially frustrating, when reading their enlightened comments in other threads. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to execute S-Editions asap and put an end to all the crap art in the world and they'll all treat others more respectfully.... Or maybe they'll just continue acting like brattish kids elsewhere... I thought there were now rules brought in to discourage the trolls!?

Are you sure you like street and urban art at all?
www.s-editions.co.uk has dr.d, RYCA, Foul Mouthed Yob, David Walker, Jason Atomic, Manuel Duboe, L.E.T., Brian Jones, Mark Hughes, Alun The Bouncer, Louis Haze.
www.babylonacademy.com has most of the above artists plus Goldie, Mau Mau, Mantis, Buenito, Carol Szatna, Slowmo.
We work directly with all of the artists. Some big names in there, all new primary market works - and you don't like any of it?
