Banksy Merrivale Stable - auction on 27th January, by apprint on Jan 24, 2022 18:13:13 GMT 1, The joke of the day
Good afternoon,
Many thanks for registering your bid for the Banksy coming up at auction on the Thursday, before we can accept your bid, we have some pre-authorisation checks to go through before we can accept any offer. We are currently asking for a £10,000 deposit and a bankers letter confirming proof of funds. We are expecting the work to go for in the region of the high hundreds of thousands, possibly up to a seven figure sum.
I thought I should reach out to you now, to avoid any disappointment in the future.

Is a chunky pre-auction deposit a standard practice? haven't come across that one myself.

This was authenticated by the main man himself - 2 mins 33 seconds in, but well worth watching the whole video again. 😀
I’ve seen the piece in person and was surprised how much bigger than I thought it would.

Agreed that seven figures is a huge sum, personally I wouldn't dream of purchasing this even if I could afford it.
However, as to not being authenticated isn't the piece essentially authenticated by appearing in his own 'Spraycation' video and very publicly being auctioned by the model village to fund its future upkeep and probably create rather a nice retirement pot at the same time.

As above, you're confusing provenance with authentication. They're entirely different beasts. |

Are you suggesting that Frank and Frances have forged it. They look very suspect to me!

800k for a street piece
The street pieces from Julien's auctions are looking like a bargain
Or was it because it featured in his video?

Not so much a "street piece" though... IMO.
Reminds me more of the pieces he's done as "gifts" to the boys club in Bristol, etc. Done without consent, but very much confirmed as being by him and easy to take and sell (or display)... I'd assume on purpose.

We know that recently 6 originals have been passed for way lower prices. It's all about the PR.
His prints are still tanking though , let's see how the forum auctions will go....

Let’s be honest, this isn’t to do with hype, it’s about finding buyers. This notion that a banksy street work with out a certificate isn’t worth more than £250k even with provenance is insane. A one off banksy, is a one off banksy, you can’t get another. So why would that be slightly more money wise, than a print with an edition of 500.
