I would have snapped this up two weeks a go. Having made a couple of big purchases can't justify another.
Good price for a PP especially as the regular edition is currently at £16.5K.

Forgot how beautiful I find this print

That didn't take long! Not surprised though if it's priced cheaper than the normal edition of this print elsewhere.

Mine isn't on eBay, it's also now sold

There are 3 of these but the timing is a bit of a coincidence.

Even Honda Accords sell for different prices to different people at different times, and there's not exactly a short supply of those. Some people get good deals. Some people get bad deals. Everyone gets a Honda Accord.

As the supply becomes more limited, and the desire for the commodity goes up, the difference between good deals and bad deals gets larger. Especially when there's the shadowy market where no one knows what anyone else paid. We'd all do ourselves a service if we just told everyone what we paid for things every time. It would take some of the mystique and power away from the galleries and give it back to the patrons.

But good luck getting that to happen.

So all we're left with for verifiable data are auction prices, and that's so little data it's hard to really price these commodities accurately. Makes this whole collecting business pretty nerve racking, I must say. I'm new in here and I already dread the question, "How much are you willing to pay?" No one wants to be insulting, but no one wants to get burned, either.

If anyone is looking for standard edition at 15gbp- perhaps give me a message, especially if you're in states...

Great piece.  Well done on the sale.  Very envious of the new owner.

^Art was an commodity way before you were even a thought in this world and will continue to be one long after you and I are gone. Just the harsh facts.

Maybe so. But it seems increasingly the case that many on here place the value/profit/hype of art as the primary consideration.
Which rather flies in the face of the rebellious roots of urban and street art.
I appreciate that I am in a minority these days.

At Hang Up for £16.45K

I think the cost alone of the older pioneers art means money has to be part of the consideration. £10,000+ on a piece of art is serious, so it can't be compared to buying a banksy / invader back in the day for £150.

It's a fair point Russ. And I appreciate you engaging in such a way.
I was merely expressing a regret. I was not suggesting that I am right and anyone else is wrong. That's hardly my place. However, the net effect is that I have pretty much given up posting on the artists you might not know thread, because people seemed much more interested in the price check threads. Lots of others have given up posting pictures of street art and graff. I find that a crying shame. The London street art thread in particular was fabulous.
