Not a limited print though. They will probably hold their value but unlikely to appreciate much. As always, buy what you like, not the name....

Value Holding / Best Pieces / ETC, by cnrdvln on Jan 20, 2020 12:36:24 GMT 1, Good Morning, I am hoping that a resident Hirst expert could give me some much needed advice! I am potentially interested in buying a piece of Hirst.... Just want to make a couple of things very clear. - I am not really interested in appreciation. However, I want to buy something that will at least maintain its value. I really, really do not want to buy something that is going to be worthless in 5 years time. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to buy? If I told you I had a budget of £1000 or less, would you call me insane? I am a big fan of the "spots" that Damien Hirst does / did. I cant imagine that will be in my price range.... Very interested in hearing back from someone. Thanks in advance. B
save up a plane ticket for Paris in the summer and get your hands on a cherry blossom diptych heni print at primary. take a loan out if needs be. he has a show coming up if you didn't know etc.

There's been rumours of this cherry blossom print for nearly a year now. I'll believe it when I see it.
true, I'm ready for any version, if uts like the Tate fiasco then get there early 🤦♂️😂

Its a cheap plane ticket so why not? Do you have any idea how much these prints will cost? I have never done anything like this before and I am very new to the art world....

Value Holding / Best Pieces / ETC, by Terry Fuckwitt on Jan 20, 2020 22:58:31 GMT 1, Does anyone have any idea on what “for the love of god” the edition of 5000 is worth ? I have the option to pick one up for 2k£.
I think that was around the release price but they took an age to shift, as there are so many different editions.
I would say it's a good price to pick one up for now.
edit-Just checked and release was £2400

That’s about the only Hirst print you’ll get at that level aside from the single spot prints which are a waste of time in my view. The skull looks pretty cool on the wall. |

Value Holding / Best Pieces / ETC, by LJCal on Jan 21, 2020 11:12:36 GMT 1, I am going to try and push for £1700. I think that is what its worth. My reasons are as follows: - Its an edition of 1000! - Hirst "hype" has been and gone. - Its not for "most" people. I personally don't believe that Hirst prints will do incredibly well in the long term. There are a huge number around and Hirst doesn't really stand for anything but making money. His work doesn't have any "feeling" to it. At least Emin has an interesting person and comes across as somewhat genuine.
You’ll be doing well, I spent about 6 months trying to source one at below £2k and in the end paid £2,300. If it’s the edition of 1700 they go for a little less. Sounds to me like you’re not a massive Hirst fan so you may be better off investing in an artist you connect with, you can pick up a whole load of Emin prints for less than £2k

Then I found this:
its small, but after some creative framing I’m more than happy with it.
it’s signed and an edition of 1700.
A Christmas gift from Momart circa 1997 (I believe).
They pop up on eBay here and there for about £800.
This was the most recent and better pictures than mine: rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F133266069002
I think it’s a great little piece!
Good luck!

I thought about a Turps banana, but i really wanted something with the signature spots.

Value Holding / Best Pieces / ETC, by Schrödinger's Chat on Jan 27, 2020 7:24:07 GMT 1, Random and not spotty but how about a Magnificent Seven, Signed edition of 1500 (500 kept by the artist).
www.gagosianshop.com/shop/damien-hirst-146
Might even find one cheaper as I've seen them sell below cost, just look out for condition issues.
Been around since 2001.
Found this one one ebay for 1000 dollars
Ebay no. 303461048527
