Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by moron on Mar 9, 2022 12:52:41 GMT 1, You lost me there. That link just goes to the page selling this rip off print.
The contact link just goes to an online form to fill in.
If they are UK based why do they publicise an address in Caracas?

I've noticed this issue in the past, but previously let it slide.
You are at times insufficiently thorough with your research, and prone to making assumptions or leaping to conclusions. This may be down to a failure to look beyond preliminary search results.
For example, there are due diligence and verification checks you may have spent 10 minutes on, when instead they merited more effort to find answers that were both accurate and non-misleading.
__________
Collection Art in its current form is clearly UK-based. This is just common sense. Look at the list of artists whose work the business hawks, the wording and appearance of its website, and the currency it trades in.
You found an old Facebook page and falsely assumed it was still current — despite the last post being an In Memorium. One of the Venezuelan gallery's two owners died of Covid-19 on 3 September 2020.
Untimely death appears to have spelled the end of that gallery (whose focus, unsurprisingly, had been on Venezuelan art). The domain name of thecollectionart.com was then picked up by one or more repulsive parasites in the UK.
A quick, simple check will also have shown that the Instagram accounts for the Venezuelan entity and the current British one are different — thecollectionart for the former, thecollectionartgallery for the latter.
__________
If anybody here knows the name(s) of the current owner(s) of Collection Art, please feel free to disclose.
u%hdjfka c refers to them as "profiteering from human suffering". And given the Banksy rip-off print featuring the Ukrainian flag, that description seems accurate to me.

Both of those Instagram pages have a link to the same website thecollectionart.com
If they are in fact UK based then I believe that they are trading in breach of UK distance selling and online selling rules.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Lroy on Mar 9, 2022 21:11:52 GMT 1, I was a lot of Fairey prints ( you know the yellow one to download , make art and art ) printed ( on paper , for 125 £ or euros and on tees too ) and sold on websites...
It makes me remember the Er?? Banksy sold ( supposed to be ) at disamaland and printed by my great friend ( er.... oh my got, this is not , yes it is ! lol ) mate P.W. - you see monsieur, I don't tell your name nor denounce you on Dran official dor et de de sang etc etc )
This one looks clearly very cheap and poor ( paper, realisation even the signature seems a photocopy )

GWB signed, original owner, framed and in superb condition.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by mohawk21 on May 5, 2022 2:38:30 GMT 1, Best of luck!!! The grail of grails here and a piece that I strongly feel will always define banksy.
Finding these in the condition the seller states is rare… I’ve looked at over 30 signed and found 1 that was as the seller describes so if it checks out then know its not easy to come by…
Can’t argue with the return you will fetch but it’s a piece in my collection that I couldn’t part with.

Price seems really solid to me.
And sounds like you have taken very good care of it.
I do agree with mohawk21. Just can't part with mine either.
Whoever gets this is going to love it and smile every time they look at it on their wall.
Without a doubt.

Missed that this hit the low. Anyone know what condition it was in? Thanks thanks I suspect that unsigned and signed GWB are going to just hit minimum reserves for the foreseeable. Waiting for September auctions to see what these are going for now |

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by LJCal on Feb 8, 2023 0:42:05 GMT 1, Don't buy from a gallery, try and buy direct from a collector and make sure to check the condition and verify with pest control before handing over the money. That's in theory how you should get the best deal, by cutting out the middle man. Failing that auction is probably your best bet right now, and plenty of bargains to be had if you're disciplined with your bidding. We're coming to the spring season so lots of opportunities. Failing that some of the specialist dealers like CAT, Castle and MyArtBroker are worth talking to.
