Banksy’s at Pictures On Walls....... Back in the day! *, by tomhills1 on Mar 13, 2007 21:21:17 GMT 1, well done lesroy for ressurecting this subject, you seem to have reminded a few people of what they missed. i never had the oppurtunity because i wasn't aware of his prints at the time. i vaguely knew of banksy as a graffiti artist but had no idea there were prints to be had.

just goes to show quite how mad the secondary market has gone and also you can't blame anyone for thinking of selling up now and realising the increase in value.

it poses an interesting question: if you had bought one of the canvasses/pallett editions, that are now well in to 5 figures, would you sell and cash in? or would you maintain you're only interested in the image and monetary value is irrelavent? it's funny how, when that much money is involved it puts a whole other spin on things, for me anyway.

kids on guns for £525?!
