New Faile Prints/OG - Secret Seas, by adewilliams on Feb 21, 2019 10:49:42 GMT 1, Interesting price points. $250 for an edition, $6.5k for the original that is actually a small edition. I applaud faile on each release though and putting stuff into collectors hands. Faile and Obey seem to be able to do it where as some seem to be a bit elitist in who owns their work.
Nice one faile

Yup. Indeed. Everyone has an opportunity to get something at an affordable rate. Much respect to Faile and Obey. One of the few who have not sold out.

How were the flippers burned?
I was umming and arring on this for a few hours. Really need to cut down my art purchases. In the end I took the plunge, seeing that I actually saw the show this piece is from in Strasbourg, I really like this piece and I don't own any other Faile piece. Quite glad they were not yet sold out.

I think Faile has historically priced to market and upped runs to keep pricing reasonable, which over time has made them a difficult flip. My guess if Fairey priced at $150-250 his stuff would be flipped less - and more fans happy.

New Faile Prints/OG - Secret Seas, by jbelleit on Feb 21, 2019 22:08:40 GMT 1, So I think I asked this about Modern Living...but just double checking...Will FAILE keep these "for sale" until they are all sold out or will they cut it off and shelve the ones that didn't sell?
If they do indeed shelve them, what happens to the edition number? Stays the same?

New Faile Prints/OG - Secret Seas, by Express Post on Feb 21, 2019 22:59:53 GMT 1, Well for starters the latest prints don't resale well which is why it is sitting.
But the underlying issue is that they haven't developed in the 12 years. So collectors aren't interested and no longer chase their works, leaving flippers left holding the baby.
Since these are failips, flippers will follow the money - and scramble to buy from primary at cost.
Ie, Mike Lee prints and sculptures, Daniel Arsham, Harland Miller, Paul Insect Avant Arte editions, Oli EPp prints, any Pejac, Kaws plates and Pace prints, Jonas Wood prints and posters, Joakim Ojanen prints and sculptures, Parra porcelain sculptures, Pez Mirage, Martin Whatson Girl by the Window, Peter Doig $900 prints, Heni Hirsts (Serpentine and Tate), Heni Richters (less so after P15+P16 bricks, but P18 is solid), Murakami Complexcon Dobs, Javier Calleja paintings and toys, David Shrigley tier 1 prints, Josh Sperling vases, everything Banksy, Invader prints and tiles, Rolex Pepsi Jubilees, Rolex Skydwellers, Rolex Daytonas, Patek Phillipe Nautiluses, Supreme bogos and accessories (Pearl Drum Kit or coffee brewer anyone?), Porsche GT2RS, upcoming Porsche Speedster, McClaren Senna amongst other things. I've missed a lot, but hopefully people get the idea.

Good. I'm happy about that. Flippers have ruined the market.

Flippers build a market, but they also destroy it too.
