The charity kit was sold at market value but most of the kits were sold below market value, probably intentionally for a bit of fun and as a low entry item for his fans that couldn't afford an original, same as most of the prints, stickers, runners, ...

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by Matt on Sept 8, 2017 10:20:09 GMT 1, Quick update.
Thanks for al the offers.
I had 3 buyers, who all went silent (thanks chaps, as we all know being civil is overrated and sending a quick message saying "I changed my mind" very tedious).
Am ideally looking for a local deal but this is framed with perspex / acrylic so can easily be shipped by FL if buyer wanted to do that.
Thanks for looking

Will be interesting to see what this sells for considering it is an early work without receipt or original packaging, especially since so many here felt it was real.

Will be interesting to see what this sells for considering it is an early work without receipt or original packaging, especially since so many here felt it was real. GLWYS I'm the OP and eBay seller,
First - thanks to the helpful UAA members who've given me good advice via PMs, on this thread and through eBay, (you know who you are).
I've linked to this thread from within the auction description as it was obvious that UAA members were recognising the kit, anyone typing "Invasion Kit 02 Octopus" into Google will end up here.
As heller says, it'll be interesting to see what this sells for - I suspect it'll be a bargain compared to what a sealed kit goes for. But my IK02 has led a long and happy life invading my home for the last 14 years, it's time to set it free

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by gd79 on Sept 18, 2017 7:56:08 GMT 1, Interested to see what it goes for. Everyone is always slamming the flippers, and demanding that works be purchased for the wall, forever. Here we have a maybe/probably genuine Invader with unfortunately very little resale value. Maybe there is the hope of getting the provenance sorted to spur prices on a bit, but essentially it is what is it. You pay up, put it up and enjoy it.
I'll be watching. I would stick it up on the back of my house.

I don't understand 2 things:
- Why private bidding? - Why no response from Orbi if you're the first owner and have the same mail / email ? (He confirmed to me in 1 week the name of the first owner and that my kit is ok)

- Orbi responded today with apologies for the delay. I've updated the auction with all the details - but here's the email body - there's good news and bad news!

For me, it's the perfect piece to actually fix to your house and be damned with the consequences

- Impossible to check the identity in the client database - could be guenuine but can't be 100% sure - a kit its: ceramic + bag + instruction
I really want to trust the story but that just mean that if you have the same ceramic tiles as IK2 you can sell it more than the price of the tiles..

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by geeem on Sept 24, 2017 5:20:09 GMT 1, As a few people on UAA were interested in how the sale of this item went - I thought I'd give a quick update now the auction has ended.
I had over 160 watchers which steadily increased during the week, the main bidding appeared to be between a gallery in the USA and a couple of private bidders who took the price to just over £1000 with a few hours to go.
The final few seconds took the price from £1100 to the final sale price of £1609.77. The winning bidder placed a single bid with 5 seconds to go. It was sold to a private buyer, based in the USA with a well established eBay account. I have received cleared PayPal funds, been in contact with the buyer and will ship tomorrow.
I'm very happy with the final price, I'd received several offers via PM here of around $500. I'd also been given a valuation of between $3000 - $5000 which seemed too high. I really didn't have a lot to go on, I'd never seen an IK for sale without the instructions/bag so it was a gamble putting it on eBay with no reserve and a £0.01 starting price. Its been a long time since I sold anything on eBay - but for higher value items I always put as much detail as possible into my listings. I look at some of the listings with 1-2 lines of text and asking prices over £10k and think - "really"? There's a few Invader items on eBay that could do with a bit of TLC in the listing description - and a reality check on prices... Something is only worth what someone is prepared to pay for it.
Anyway - that's my 2ps worth. Discovering this whole scene has been really interesting, I've already bought some stuff I really like and would never have found had I not ended up here. Once again, thanks to everyone who showed an interest and maybe I'll pop up now-and again as I get deeper into this "hobby"

The Kit has been bought at the exhibit in London in 2007,it has been opened and I still have the original packaging as well as the white paper on the back. It is numbered by the artist.

Not that Im doubting you, I just happen to have done quite a bit of research in to all the Invasion kits (I'm compiling a bit of a guide as well as making a few of my own) and your tiles seem a little off.
It could just be the way you have shot the kit though and the lighting involved coupled with still having the film on the front.
Here are some examples of the same kit in the hands of other collectors:
Perhaps you could take a few more photos of your kit in a different light? Could we also please see a photo of the back of the kit as I can match the tiles based on their pattern.
I'm sure everything is ok and you did buy your kit back in 2007 at the exhibit, it will just give me a bit of piece of mind knowing that no forum member will lose out, especially with this being your first post and all...
Thanks

I own an IK7, and I already talk with this guy on eBay, and it definitively looks weird. The color, the black of the back paper, the numbering, and the story.
@op remember me ? You offered me 2k€ for the kit as a discount because you will sell an other one. Who sell something at half the market price?

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by dvici on Oct 13, 2017 12:48:14 GMT 1, Ok, I understand that would be better for me to hang it on the wall, since I think if I cannot sell it on a specialized forum as Urbanartassociation is, I won’t sell it anywhere. Yes man, of course I remember you! As already mentioned, I tried 5000€ to no avail, and I saw an auction on eBay US ending for 2800$, therefore I am giving it away for that price, furthermore, graffitistreets and artsy does not accept it without the same kind of proofs you are asking me. Anyway, if you want to pay 8000€ I am not stopping you! I just didn’t want to speculate that much, because all this situation is turning against us. I don’t know your budget, but I am not able to buy a single Invader artwork anymore.

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by shortcut on Oct 16, 2017 19:29:49 GMT 1, Hi All,
Can’t say I’ve been on here much in the last few years, but I bought one of these for my sister when released and she asked me about it today. It’s from the edition of 50 and I guess considered signed -
imageshack.com/a/img923/7772/1AsjoD.jpg
I’ve put it in the art for sale thread as I’m 99% sure she will want me to sell it based on some basic research.
So if anyone can give me an indication or would like to make an offer please pm me.
Thanks! 😊
