Banksy Laugh Now Print, by Lunch Special on Aug 6, 2011 0:12:55 GMT 1, I want this print more than anything but in all hinesty, I cant justify more than $2k USD for any UNSIGNED banksy print.. I know I know I know. Its well worth it, But i cant justify it to myself. With that said, the one on ebay just under ยฃ2k GBP has a reserve or the seller expects like upwards of ยฃ2500 so someone should move on this
Good luck with your sale, I would never let go of a Laugh Now if i had one! or any banksy for that matter
Someone by this, it kiils me to see this available and not be able to buy or afford it
I woudl pay in installments if you offer credit...

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by kingofprussia on Aug 6, 2011 0:21:48 GMT 1, i bought mine for 2200 GBP last year and feel its well worth it. There are only a select few unsigned Banksy's that I feel are worthy of money greater than 2000 GBP and imo this is one of them.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by Rolex on Aug 6, 2011 0:42:54 GMT 1, I know exactly how you feel lunch special, call me a snob but I can't get my head round unsigned prices, maybe my friends are uneducated but I'm sure they would think I'd lost my marbles if I'd payed these sort of prices & many dealers agree with me . I think time will tell but I'm going to stick to signed only ,& maybe miss out on prints like this !

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by bonsai on Aug 6, 2011 2:43:56 GMT 1, OK here is the conclusion.
I put the "LAUGH NOW" up for sale because I had agreed to purchase the framed Barcode as seen in the "Discolored Barcode print thread" I can no longer move forward on that deal.
That said I will keep the Laugh Now ... for now. I am still not sure what an appropriate price would be given the exceptional quality of the print. Although it has been a great read in relation to what we class as a "mint" or "near mint print".
Many thanks to all who were interested and I apologize for the outcome. I am also a little disapointed considering the low edition on the B.C.

who wouldn't rather have a signed print?? Unlike many of the people out in the world who can afford a signed 'Laugh Now' I can not and must 'settle' for this unsigned print. I'll live.

Call it "the rich" and "not so poor" ...

That one was fake and the bids weren't real bids - people on here bid it up to save anyone getting ripped off

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by tomh on Nov 12, 2014 8:44:31 GMT 1, Just back from the (re) framers....
I got this print about 10 years ago on the mighty fleabay. No provenance or COAs or whatnot, not even sure if they existed back then. Anyway it's been on my wall ever since, in a fairly cheap looking frame.
Finally I got around to getting it authenticated, and received the PC certificate a couple of weeks back.
So decided, now that it's a bona fide Banksy I better treat it to a decent frame
Quite pleased with the result!

It could be a later canvas? But the signature still looks a litte off too me....

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by sommguy on Nov 26, 2014 10:07:26 GMT 1, the NYC pieces were on smaller canvas, and filled the canvas more. this looks like an odd run, or a Fake. no date on signature.... its definitely new work. but the stencil looks too clean. no spray effect, or any evidence of the lifting of the stencils while spraying.... its almost too clean...
but the signature looks legit, if written with an acrylic pen/paint stick... but no date...
For that much money, you have to be sure...

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by hnkpnk on Nov 26, 2014 10:50:14 GMT 1, Afaik he doesn't use that sig for canvas. And the sig should be on the frame (on the back or side) and not on the back of the canvas itself. Check the Central Park sale and you can see it's not this sig used there at least.
But I'm no expert and this may be ok, but it doesn't feel right to me.
