PFG242 Mega Sale, by Wanchope on Dec 29, 2023 18:00:53 GMT 1, Thanks for the heads up and just had a look and there is tonnes of stuff there, but the prices before the sale are insane and if Iโm honest even after their discounts the price are still way too high. When are these galleries/resellers going to listen to the market? Frustrating

I think he needs to stick to framing! I was considering getting a few pieces framed and they're pretty local to me, but if this is what I can expect of their pricing then I think I'll look elsewhere. I had something framed by him. Price was actually fairly reasonable, but the results were extremely underwhelming. The corners were awful and when I came to deframe the piece later, the spec was very much not what we'd agreed, and it was definitely not 'archival'. Oh and it took bloody ages. Very disappointing - I'd never use him again. |

PFG242 Mega Sale, by Wanchope on Jan 1, 2024 2:05:27 GMT 1, I personally have no problem with the framer or starting up a sideline business if selling on, I just wish ( like a lot of my own clients for that matter ) that they knew and understood the economic climate and made their prices sensible. They are not alone though as I see lots trying to sell and pieces that would sell but at the right price, not 2021-2022 prices. Either way letโs hope for a great 2024 where we can all love the art we buy and hopefully as an investment too!

Afraid there is no defence for ignorance as it is still the wrong way round regardless whether Invader signed on the side. There are no rules for where signatures should appear, but Space Invaders do not shoot sideways. ๐
All of the signed Invader Homeworkโs (before Albino) were signed/numbered on the side as well, but no one rotates these.

I did message PFG about it myself. It seems they liked the post without actually reading it as it was Ben Eine. They then immediately unliked it.
