Remember when you could buy a signed Banksy for £150?, by munkeh on Oct 16, 2024 14:54:49 GMT 1, Been going through my old email accounts and found a few emails from POW.
Got this one about CND Soldiers, which I later went on to buy, signed for £150.
Although I didn't buy it straight away, I think I bought it a few days later.
If I remember right, signed/unsigned used to be available for about 2 weeks.
Then Bradgalina came along and it became an F5 refresh game!

Remember when you could buy a signed Banksy for £150?, by Greyhound on Oct 16, 2024 16:11:03 GMT 1, I remember wanting to buy a signed Because I'm Worthless for £250 from a local gallery, probably around that time. My girlfriend at the time talked me out of it. A couple (few?) years later I managed to get talked out of buying one for £999 by a new girlfriend.
It consoles me to think that I'd probably have sold it when it was worth a couple of grand, but to this day I'd like to have one on the wall.

Back before they went to silly prices, I'd buy them, enjoy them, sell them on and make a few hundred quid, to then buy another and enjoy that too.
The CND one, I actually sold it on eBay soon after the BradGelina incident, I think at the time I had the highest sold print of his in sold auctions at £2,100.
In all the prints I owned, I had signed CND, Grannies, Jack and Jill, Nola. Unsigned, most of the rats. If I had only kept them, but I got the most out of them at the time.
I actually sold Nola to my parents for £2,500. They had it for about 8 years and sold it at ForumAuctions for about 30k, so not bad really. I got a bit towards a new car too.
Now I'm just hunting down an einePink Train and it'll go with my Hewlett Sponge Finger and eine Blue Train that I've kept hold of as I like them.

Remember when you could buy a signed Banksy for £150?, by Onket on Oct 16, 2024 18:19:39 GMT 1, If I had bought any of these at the time I'd have definitely sold them as soon as they became worth a few hundred. That's if they weren't damaged in the multiple house/flat moves, I never seemed to live anywhere longer than a year until we bought our first place in 2010. Besides, my money was spent on beer and other things, not an overpriced glorified posters (as I'm pretty sure I saw 'prints' at the time). I've got my XL Americans sticker that I got from the wall at the Burner Prize, and the memories- that'll do me.
