Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Deleted on Jul 31, 2017 15:55:49 GMT 1, Hi folks I've just been talking to a guy at work who bought a signed GWRB back in 2004 framed from a gallery in Islington. Believe it or not he had literally no idea of its potential worth. What would be the best guess on value now? I've told him he needs to get Pest Control, needs to check the condition, and should sort out his insurance. What other advise should I give him? I've never owned a Banksy, nor am I likely to now, so don't really know the process, only bits and pieces of advice I've picked up on here.
tell him its worth £90k.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Schrödinger's Chat on Jul 31, 2017 16:15:05 GMT 1, Thanks for your help so far.
Pricing seems quite wide ranging.
To say he was surprised would be an understatement - best £350 he ever spent.

and i'd say 80k is a bit high; these seem to be hitting a bit of a ceiling. the unsigneds have been selling for like 25kGBP at auction over the past few months, so i have a hard time believing the signed version is 80kGBP, especially given the 100+ APs floating around.
obviously an incredible print, but yea

....You were picking on the high end of the valuation of £80k....its hard to imagine GWRB falling to £50k any time soon!

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Schrödinger's Chat on Jul 31, 2017 19:21:07 GMT 1, Okay, so it's sounds like 80k is achievable, maybe more on a good day.
Excuse my naivity but what % commission would a gallery charge for selling?

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Forbidden Love on Aug 1, 2017 7:40:14 GMT 1, Advise
Tell your friend to take it to a restorer, get it taken out the frame. Have the condition looked over. If it's been framed since then it's a good chance that non conservation materials were used. If black mounts were used then this has prob dis coloured the paper. Not many people realise this, but no matter what grade a black mount is over time it will discolour paper. I've learnt the hard way and I'm sure there are many people unaware.
Lastly I'd take the print to be reframed at John jones. Expensive yes but when your dealing with a print like this, it's worth every penny.
Choice of frame....as everything I frame now. All white - white Matt frame, white filler, raised and floated with white backing, 1.5" border.
Good luck

Unsigned for 25k one at auction in poor condition.. for mint condition you need above 33k mate.. galléries offers it at >35k.. This is the real GWRB world now (*I own a GWRB since few month)

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Schrödinger's Chat on Aug 1, 2017 9:11:38 GMT 1, Taking Balboa's point - I'm going to wait to see a) photos of the print and b) whether he is interested in selling before I post any more. Thanks to everyone who has passed on advise.
The reason I wanted to check that I had the correct pest control site is because the online form asks for a lot of info that basically if it got in the wrong hands would line you up perfectly for burglars. It doesn't look like it would be a difficult site to copy.
I would say though that "trolling of the highest order" is a bit harsh, have you seen the 13 page LIITA thread!

Yeah, come on, this is the real world, stop going by very recent sale prices. Let's just assume the prices are up loads.
Last auction results for a bunch of Banksy prints were poor.

My intent is not to up-load prices (they will go up by them-self!), just report information available to everybody here and thruough reputable galleries.

He did give basic advice:
I've told him he needs to get Pest Control, needs to check the condition, and should sort out his insurance.
Which would have been what I would know, and I am here every day.
I didn't know this would fetch 80K+. MY guess would have been about 35K.
If you are not into Banksy, it difficult to keep track.
So good he asks advice here - where the experts are.

Thanks DiveJedi. I lost track of Banksy's once the cheapest unsigned went out of my price range.
I've also never sold any art via a gallery. My partner has sold her own work via galleries and they have taken anywhere from 20%-50%. I couldn't believe someone would be paying 50% commission on a £80k Banksy print but I wouldn't know for sure.
