Penny 1 dollar Redacted , by Happy Go Lucky Chap on Mar 28, 2018 23:32:25 GMT 1, An absolute steal at this price, although your photo doesn't do the piece justice, nor does the framing - the bottom edges look like they could do with some tape. That said, if I didn't already own this piece I'd buy it in a flash at ยฃ600. GLWTS

Always a chance of a bit of movement with float mounting Penny pieces, but is easily sortes out.
GLWS!

Penny 1 dollar Redacted , by shambles79 on Mar 29, 2018 6:53:16 GMT 1, The print is fine, its just my framer (who I don't use any more) decided on Japanese hinging with only two points of contact. Would it be worth my while to get it taped and relist it with better pictures (using an old iPad) ? and from the sounds of it I've underpriced it lol.

The problem is humidity, as an expat living in Scottsdale I get it easy, however the dampness in the UK.... Remember paper "breathes", it absorbs and dissipates moisture. Thus the paper will expand and contract under differing conditions. Taping along the bottom will stop the curling but will probably cause buckling / rippling to the piece. Solutions - spend a bucket load of money and have your house humidity controlled; live with it and remember it will flatten out during a dry spell. The more reasonable options are put a clear photo corner on each bottom edge - allow 1/16 inch (couple of mm) for expansion/contraction. If that is not visually pleasing you can also look at matting the item - keeps it flat and will allow movement under the mat. Hope this helps.

You got him so excited that he was holding the next Banksy that he got so cocky he turned down offers, decided he didn't even need to fix the horrible mounting issues, and then didn't even want to talk price cause he was so convinced that he was gonna make a killing on the fleabay. After two relistings barely getting a single bid, even I'm feeling sorry for the lad!

You threw your toys out the pram and said you were out when I didn't want to tell you. I can tell you now it was ยฃ650 which is not much higher than I listed it on here. I never for one moment thought I had the next Banksy. If you had an issue with me you could have PM'd but no you put it on here like a child hoping to whip up a little thread.
