Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by touchdowntodd on Feb 26, 2019 15:29:02 GMT 1, The ebay auctions are all missleading and basically fake - no one is paying 8k for this when you get a Yellow Bob for like 12-13k. I was offered one for 3000โฌ, but first of all I need to see the final image since there is a variation in quality imo. But since it is nearly impossible nowadays to get limited editions from Kaws at 1k, everyone should be happy and frame it. They're not fake, I put mine up fors**ts yesterday and have multiple offers at 6500 in less than 24 hours.ย
Take that an run and buy an actual released print
But we can all agree multiple have "sold" on eBay and are magically relisted

Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by touchdowntodd on Feb 26, 2019 15:33:43 GMT 1, Even if we use eBay which are the only public sales. Nothing has sold since Feb 10th.. not even a bid
Not hating, just honestly discussing. And I love em, but wouldn't pay over retail. It's smaller than my hand, and I can't stand that they didn't number them on top of the cutting method

If this were me, and the JW print was worth $6500+, I would sell it in a heartbeat, add a little cash, and pick up a canvas from an up and coming artist that I follow.

Can you point me in the direction of a no reply or blame game at those prices?

Anyway my whole family ended up getting one, and funny enough my great grandfather got the nicest one. Reminds me of the Banksy Peckham rock postcards. Really? This is an actual photo of the packaging? Nothing was wrapped around this?
A bubble Wrap. But yeah not enough to protect your print in an airplane. Gonna be A few fucked up prints.

No Reply print Feb 2 ($7,576) as literally the most recent example.

Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by A.R.T. on Feb 26, 2019 17:30:34 GMT 1, One thing folks seem to be forgetting is the amount of hand finishing these prints got. Not only did they have to get strategically cut, they are also double stamped with unique images and signed. More hand finishing work went into these than the majority of pubicly released KAWS artwork. Calling them a mass produced postcard is silly.

Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by Hairbland on Feb 26, 2019 17:41:21 GMT 1, Reminds me a little bit of the Jonas Wood "Vote" print in that it was an unannounced drop of a print by a borderline blue chip artist who most people will never have an opportunity to own. Both prints have some level of the artist's trademark aesthetic (x's and shapes for kaws and basketballs for JW), and both prints shot to unrealistic levels before settling back down to something more sensible. Hypothetically, are we assuming that the kaws piece if more valuable than the JW? If so, by how much? I managed to snag the JW (kicking myself for not getting the kaws) and I'm not sure I'd trade my JW for one of these tondo's, even if the tondo might be "worth" more. Might depend on the image of the tondo. That said, if given the option to own a large JW canvas or a kaws canvas, I'd pick the JW 10/10, so maybe I just like JW's style more. At least the JW is an actual print and release . Not an afterthought. It at least looks complete, numbered, etc I'm a fan of both in all honesty, but we have to be honest about what the kaws is Yes, the Kaws is a gift for donating $1000 to the Brooklyn Museum. Sounds like Kaws is one righteous dude.

Strategically cut meaning stamp cut in stacks with rough edges? Lol.. and a museum stamp plus a hand drawn arrow?
Not a postcard, but let's not fool ourselves lol. Would you pay $5k for 1/24th of Jonas wood print? Estate basquiat? Less popular Warhol? Mind u without number or edition size, and a random section of the print (we've all seen some less than desirable cuts from these kaws already)
At one point do we realize these are just a museum money grab based off unused prints which themselves are not that popular and not selling for tons over initial cost... I'm still willing to bet there are near 1000 of these

Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by Hairbland on Feb 26, 2019 17:43:01 GMT 1, They won't be selling publicly, only people bidding up their own auctions. Edit - I like how when everyone owns one they're like 'ill buy a hundred at 3.5 times what I paid at cost' The ebay auctions are all missleading and basically fake - no one is paying 8k for this when you get a Yellow Bob for like 12-13k. I was offered one for 3000โฌ, but first of all I need to see the final image since there is a variation in quality imo. But since it is nearly impossible nowadays to get limited editions from Kaws at 1k, everyone should be happy and frame it. Is a Yellow Bob really 12-13K now?

Kaws Brooklyn Museum Print, by A.R.T. on Feb 26, 2019 17:52:17 GMT 1, One thing folks seem to be forgetting is the amount of hand finishing these prints got. Not only did they have to get strategically cut, they are also double stamped with unique images and signed. More hand finishing work went into these than the majority of pubicly released KAWS artwork. Calling them a mass produced postcard is absurd. Strategically cut meaning stamp cut in stacks with rough edges? Lol.. and a museum stamp plus a hand drawn arrow? Not a postcard, but let's not fool ourselves lol. Would you pay $5k for 1/24th of Jonas wood print? Estate basquiat? Less popular Warhol? Mind u without number or edition size, and a random section of the print (we've all seen some less than desirable cuts from these kaws already) At one point do we realize these are just a museum money grab based off unused prints which themselves are not that popular and not selling for tons over initial cost... I'm still willing to bet there are near 1000 of these
Comparing JW and KAWS is silly. KAWS has a much bigger fanbase. Would folks pay 5k for a piece of a Warhol/Basquiat print that the artist intented to be cut, then stamped and signed them? I am willing to say yes collectors would pay 5k. The musuem has confirmed that there was 250 prints created for those who donated.
