Pretty sure if you just paid $1000 then you are getting a print. Keep calm people.
My receipt says "Limited Edition KAWS x MOCAD print × 1"

Kaws • MOCAD Print Edition, by ca on May 8, 2019 19:22:31 GMT 1, I'll never understand how someone can pay close to 5k (ebay listings) for a surprise print. 5k can buy you a lot of art, and art you can actually see and pick what you like... Im aware though that the typical hypebeast kaws collector doesnt even care, it's all about the status or potential future profits.
anyway, rant over

Message gmidd his is already on the bay Hopefully he'd sell for a little less on here to avoid those Ebay fees. Yeah, honestly, I'm not really expecting to get that close to my asking price, but the one someone just put up for auction is climbing quickly, so who the hell knows. I am a big KAWS fan (that unfortunately sold all of my KAWS toys years ago for a fraction of what they're going for now to pay a tax bill ) and was planning on keeping it, but I already have a shitload of art I love that's not worth anything and it's hard to pass up enough money to pay for a family vacation. |

You don’t speak for everyone, all the power to him. I’d have flipped the hell outta it myself. I could buy more art or do things I’d enjoy ten fold more than I’d enjoy a 8x8 kaws on my wall.

No one likes a flipper or sh*t sob story Actually, tons of people like flippers. The good majority of the art community are two slow on releases.. So, they have the chance now to obtain what they want for flipper prices. If no one flipped, I wouldn't have half of my collection. |

Kaws • MOCAD Print Edition, by Michael Jacob on May 8, 2019 21:12:05 GMT 1, US tax question... If you attend the VIP party based on a $5K donation (that includes a free print), how would that impact your taxes next year? MOCAD is listed on the IRS site. Wouldn't it net your print cost much lower than $5K? Just curious.

Assuming that you itemize, the deductible portion is the amount of the donation less the fair market value of what you receive in exchange.
E.g. if you bought the print for $1K and made an additional $500 gift, the $1K is nondeductible and the $500 is deductible.
If you haven't purchased yet, they should be able to tell you the value of what you receive with the $5K donation.

It would be more beneficial to bring down your taxable income vs. a donation deduction. |

I've never looked at whether a deductible contribution can instead be allocated to basis (maybe it can, but it seems to me that logically it should not). But he seemed to be looking for a way to keep the piece.
