Miss Bugs 5th June Brighton, by Heavyconsumer on Jun 5, 2008 15:15:10 GMT 1, It wouldn't have been so bad, if they'd even bothered to answer the phone at the time when they told buyers to call. I wanted to enquire about a cheaper piece and the availability of prints, but they just let the phone ring. Quite a shame really. Why bother to set up a service for overseas buyers and not bother to deliver it?  To be fair they've always stated they only had one phone line. I was shocked I got through when I did to be honest.
I hear you, but it wasn't engaged, they didn't answer it.
EDIT - the line appears to ring even when it's engaged.

I can't make the show, so curious to see what's on offer.

May just go take a look after the crowds have all gone...

dodgy businesses often up the price at the last minute because they know they have you over a barrel, you have made commitments, and it's very difficult for you to say no.

Miss Bugs 5th June Brighton, by griffermans on Jun 5, 2008 16:25:12 GMT 1, just got back from the pre-preview. I got there late at 3.45pm (I'm a teacher so had to bolt from school at 3.15pm) and it had all gone! Some impressive pieces, and the prints look good too. Shame, but the kids come first!

What, a whole 30 minutes?!? To buy something they wanted?! Shocking.

Miss Bugs 5th June Brighton, by paulypaul on Jun 5, 2008 16:43:04 GMT 1, I have a Diptych and a God print....
Almost "bought Hust all over my body" but figured the diptych will be, well, friendlier and I like the Hirst/Warhol/Bugs references...
Good day...

Did you call or did you go down in person?
I just called to arrange payment and was told the diptych was "oversold". I'll be getting a call tomorrow to see what can be done about it. Pretty gutted if I end up without one!

Miss Bugs 5th June Brighton, by AoT Framing on Jun 5, 2008 16:56:41 GMT 1, Sold out already of the two pieces I wanted. (Hurst all over my body and Trechikoff Art Star) Sounded absolutely jam-packed Picked up the Diptych on aluminum, edition of 5
How have they sold out if the doors don't open until 6.30? Didn't think they were selling anything before the show. Still be worth getting down there, drinking free beer and talking arty bollocks. And it's in my hometown and beautifully sunny today!

Miss Bugs 5th June Brighton, by Heavyconsumer on Jun 5, 2008 16:58:05 GMT 1, I managed to get through in the end and grabbed an Elvira print. It was a very tough choice and I nearly got the Godzilla too, but wall-space is at a premium.
I was a bit perplexed to find that they've released a new Frankenstein on Spin background print though. Still I paid £60 less for mine I guess.

Miss Bugs 5th June Brighton, by jamieb on Jun 5, 2008 17:51:27 GMT 1, supposed to be half six, I had an invite for the pre-preview but couldn't make it, Lindasy said call up at 6.30 and I could buy a print. Just phoned (5.30) as I saw HeavyC had just got one and she won't sell me one now as they've under estimated demand. Bit gutted. Nevermind I already have lego frank and one of them is the regular frank.
anyone got an image of the eye charts? PM me

Miss Bugs 5th June Brighton, by Billy Sport on Jun 5, 2008 18:05:12 GMT 1, at least half of the print sets were sold before preview, i bought an original and was told I could get a set of prints, then after waiting for an hour for the queue to die down and queueing for 30 mins was told no sets left... still, a little bit of charm and all was good. absolute manic though, for a pre preview, it was a bit of a scrum, a few miscommunications with what had sold, few angry people who seemed to have missed out. The elvis/warhol looked great, that was oversold in the shop, if you bought on the phone, good luck...
