hi mate,

if you have still got the rat i am interested.

drop me a line, rich.

Gotta say I agree with you, in that I also think Love Rat's a CLASSIC Banksy and would love one on the wall!

I'd say about £700 for an unsigned LR sounds sensible, although I have a feeling that 1 or 2 may have gone for a little less recently. Signed is gonna be much tougher to find and may prove expensive. I wouldn't like to put a figure on it though, as I'm not aware of any recent sales as a guide.

Good luck!

Achtungbono's numbers sound about right for US as they were going for £1k - £1.1k not that long ago (I convinced my then girlfriend paying £900 odd was a great price) I think a signed would be more than £2.5k, but they don't come up that often

bearded dwarf ? assume you are talking about Girl With Balloon

/ sorry for the caplitalist response that follows, but as you are asking for numbers, rather than discussing the vagaries of the image itself, then this may be justified

these are pretty rare on the whole, despite a run of 600 in total IIRC ,as they are a non threatening/ non confrontational nice looking piece and thus have a wider audience.being a relatively early print, they have much more kudos - compare it to naplam - I have a naplam in a sleeve that I will unlikely frame as it is a bit of a blunt visual instrument rather than a nice little wall hanging to chat about when you have a dinner party

I would budget upto £2K for this US if you are serious ,as things are creeping up once again .Signed will be the seller can name their own price, but look for 3500+ , but likely much more

IM sure someone will come long and show one at a lower price sold of late, but its hard to guage the expected price levels due to low liquidity - Xmas is coming and with GBP interest rates bening effectively zero, many will be punting for an investment piece...

the GWB market was stone dead a year or two ago, when it emerged that it had been faked in numbers and many people found themselves with a bogus print ( case yet to be heard, so no speculating ! ).

As with any banksy, make sure its legit. Not all GWB owners have got a PC cert, but this isnt an issue if POW have checked it over and registered it in your name - People do pay more for a PC certified print - there is a premium to be paid for complete confidence in a print, especially if they are not 100% sure of the banksy market, but if you are intending to keep, rather than move on, it may be slightly cheaper to get one without the cert.

None of mine are PC cert, as it would have cost the same as buying another Banksy to do it to the colelction, but I was more than happy to take them to POW for checking and registration.POW are very good about this, despite there being alot of work involved for them & I can only appreciate the provision of this service for free

good luck with the search. I recently sold a spare LR of mine, but in hindsight, Maybe I should have waited a little longer....

Love Rat's -
Unsigned have always hovered around the 1k mark usually slightly lower
Signed - at their high were 5k - low around 2750 - so i'd say somewhere inbetween -prob 3.5k + though hard to pinpoint
Girl With Balloon -
Unsigned's have always amazed me as the most expensive unsigned Banksy - constantly 2.5k ish + but yes beware
Signed - I doubt you'll even find one - but megabucks

The search for a colour soup can has left me exhausted.

so, hopefully this will be an easier search.

Would like a signed love or gangsta rat, I have some very tasty swaps.

P.M what you have on offer

ps. I already have a signed "get out while you can"

please dont start a thread!!! only joking.

i would swap a sepia morons and a colour trolleys for the right piece. IE, mint condition with all paperwork, would prefer unframed, but would also consider framed, as long as the framing is top notch.

how about a signed placard rat? I think Scud80 is selling one on here - or at least he was

up

bump

I have send you a message..

Please note the marks from the float mounting are on the rear of the print and do not effect the front of the print.

Sold pending payment.
