Coming down in price now as some try and shift it. Was one at 2750 obo, no sale. Now two on at 2200 and 1999 obo. I suspect you could snag one at x2-3 cost near enough. Maybe less later.

Wait it out. The more that come on, the more the undercutting will continue.

Are you that certain that these arenโt mostly bought by collectors, and are staying in their collections?
Iโm no eBay expert, but I can only see two for sale and no completed sales.
Early days of course, but eBay has hardly been flooded with them, even though they were delivered a week or so ago. Normally flippers are rather quick to flog their wares.
I suspect that these are staying put.
I could be wrong, and maybe there will be lots for sale soon.

Lol, here's my view...but could be wrong.... Whats with the safety net disclaimer?
Just take a position, and if you're wrong, wear it on the chin.
You believe that most have gone to collectors and will stay put. 'Most' could mean 126 out of 250 leaving 124 in the hands of resellers.
I still think more will come into the market when a floor price has been determined and resellers want to capitalize.
As far as I can see there isn't hot demand at current prices, so wait it out if you're a buyer.

Ai Weiwei โข Pequi Tree Sculpture, by orchid on Jan 7, 2022 0:42:03 GMT 1, I agree. I don't understand how most could have gone to collectors as it was a large and open release, so a mix of collectors and flippers had their feed, not a small and vetted release. I think other resellers are staring from the sidelines to see if the floor is tempting enough to throw their hat in. I suspect floor will be ยฃ700-1000 (I know one guy who bought for 800).

I wouldnโt say it was a disclaimer. More not being so arrogant as to state a tentative opinion as fact. I often see opinions stated here as rock solid facts (this is not directed at you, but generally) and it irritates me. Perhaps it is this that makes me more likely to comment that what Iโm saying may well be wrong. Perhaps itโs that Iโm not an alpha!
By the by, adding the word โfactโ at the end of an opinion is even worse!
I take your point. I was ambiguous. When I say โmostโ I actually meant that I think the vast majority of these have gone in to collections rather than the hands of flippers. Maybe because they sold out before it was mentioned on here. โUnder the radarโ as is often said. I still think that 2 for sale a week after they sold out suggests flippers missed this one, as they do tend to sell immediately on sell out. No doubt more will pop up over time though.
* I could be wrong!

Ai Weiwei โข Pequi Tree Sculpture, by Jules Leotard on Jan 7, 2022 17:33:22 GMT 1, These were a nice pick up for those that knew about it, from memory the middle finger was an edition of 1000 so surprised there are only 250 of this one. Just an observation.
Back in 2017 the Ai Weiwei ebay release for Public Art Fund was highly publicized on social media and websites. It took hours before the two editions of 1000 sold out. The mini Pequi tree edition on the other hand hardly got any publicity. Not even on the Instagram account from Serralves and it sold out in seconds.
