Banksy Morons Print, by ironic mustache on May 15, 2014 16:20:51 GMT 1, Hi All-
Helping a friend try to sell her signed Moron's print from the Los Angeles Barely Legal show in 2006. For those of you in the know you know that that the prints sold to the general public at the Barely Legal show were not signed and were limited to only 100 prints before they stopped the run. However, there were a few low numbers and proofs that got signed of each of the 6 prints offered at that show. This is one of them. Full Pest Control COA comes with the print.
This print has the gold frame around the auction image that differentiates the LA version from others so this is NOT the sepia version or the POW version
Photos of the actual piece can be found here (thats linen matting in frame)
www.dropbox.com/sh/vzfws0dc0thymkf/AAC2lHq0TXyWKpBOlJ5j34oWa
Based in Los Angeles, she's looking for offers but in the spirit of full disclosure to forum members i think she's hoping to get between 30-40k(USD) for the piece
PM me if interested and i'll put you guys in touch.
Cheers Dave

I told her the only way to find out is to put it out there and see what the market dictates. i guess that fact that its a signed one from the Barely Legal show gives it a leg up over the other versions

Banksy Morons Print, by Deleted on May 15, 2014 17:48:46 GMT 1, 18k - 20k GBP, hefty asking price IMO.
Good luck with the sale though.
edit: I would assume most on here are in the know re the myriad and various editions of Banksy prints.

At the moment, i would guesstimate it would struggle to reach £8k

Banksy Morons Print, by ironic mustache on May 16, 2014 5:58:43 GMT 1, I agree with you guys, which is why i took it to the forum. I think seeing how NOLA and a few others rose up in price gave her the false hope this one would be worth more, however I've always been amazed how pricey some of his prints sell for. I remember almost buying a NOLA for $6k a few years ago (seller backed out) and I thought that was crazy for a print then, now that would be a HUGE deal. I love that image. Anyway, I think she realizes she won't get those numbers for Morons and at this point there doesn't seem to be much interest in the piece, maybe thats a sign she should just leave it hanging on the wall.

interesting logic, because I wonder what we classify as a 'variation subset' of what, signed? Being a 'print'? Being a piece of 'art'? Everything is a variation subset unless it's a completely unique object of unique origin.
hang on I may've taken it too far
time for a lie down
ps. I'd suggest it's closer to 10k GBP

Cheers +1 set the reserve to what she will accept as a lowest offer, and run the auction. you can get a lot of data out of the auction other than price too.

Cheers +1 set the reserve to what she will accept as a lowest offer, and run the auction. you can get a lot of data out of the auction other than price too. I don't think you can read anything into non selling prices of reserve auctions. I know I don't bother with those, when people put reserves on ebay they tend to have unrealistic pricing expectations. There is a lot more interest resulting in higher sale prices when there isn't a reserve.

Banksy Morons Print, by sommguy on May 20, 2014 3:31:48 GMT 1, I see a lot of data. unique page views, watchers, last minute snipers. and at least you can "idea" of the market. it will not sell for 30-40k i just bought a signed toxic mary, with coa and framed beautifully. albeit, white frame, and not black, which is my preference. anyway... i paid $8,200 cash local pick up. Getting an unsigned laugh now at 3500.00 there are a boat load of banks in los angeles. more flippers than collectors.
Where did this buyer get in her head that she could get anywhere near that price?
... eyes wide shut!
