this is a tricky one cos they are small editions and all varied..so each is a semi-original
agreed that they are pricey. couldnt bring myself to pay more than 380 for a ganesha..
..if I did get it that is

I'm with you.
Having said that, Faile do plenty of hand finishing touches on their prints and make them low runs, also bear in mind how much money some are spending on giclee's.
Personally I'm not into Faile, but I guess around the ยฃ300 -ยฃ400 may be worth it if you were.

No sorry, dgb -- it's not like high school around here at all actually. Or, at least it didn't used to be.
I miss the old days of this forum before all the carpet baggers and pretend fans jumped on the wave and decided to join in. I honestly cant wait till the streetart bubble bursts and you carpet bagger types who only care about the next release from the superstars and have no idea about any other art in the world can go on and find some other pop culture thing to make money off of, and those of us who actually care can be left to enjoy the art forums in peace.
So yeh, like I said, it's not like high school around here at all, actually. Or, at least it didn't used to be......

Yep, this sport is far to rich for the likes of me!
Still some at POW for ยฃ32 a pop including postage; looks like they have shifted near 40 odd on the back of Failes release today..

Agree with you.
It is a beauty and I hope I managed to get one-even at that price.

Wow, you are frigging absurd. As if you or NU has any right to say a damn thing about me or come on here using foul language and throw insults at me? To try and twist my comments to make me sound like an idiot and criticize my buying decisions? And make stupid absurd comments about how I should learn to spell. Can you say petty?
Please absultely spare me your "I'm from the LES and more street art than you" speech. Talk about high school.
And BTW unlike many people on this forum I have sold SEVERAL things here to other forum members at cost or well well below retail.

Think it will be interesting to see how people's collections grow - I personally like to heavily collect certain artists vs. having a wide range of stuff that doesn't mesh.

When they cancelled my original (SUCKS), they said we will contact you later about Stories of Love in Blue... I think that means it is not mine.
I love Faile. Today is one of the saddest art days I have had in a long time.

You just don't get it do you ? you're so obviously ignorant of the scenes values and of art in general. Every other post you make just highlights the fact.
You just posted on a site dedicated to promoting street art that you bought 3-4 ? prints, and really only want one of them ! Other people are posting that they sadly missed the ONE they really wanted... and you expect people to think your post is ok and fellow board members should be sympathetic to your problem? it's idiotic mate, you're an idiot.

Yeah, sorry man, long day. I in no way think we should all adhere to some "collectors club" or leftist agenda.. but... we're a community board, a community.. and we DO share some similar values, people generally like to help each other out. I don't see how bagging prints you don't like, that others on here may, helps us all get along.

Nothing to do with flippers just swapping for something of more interest to a particular person. Until any of us actually receive a print though it's all up in the air.

you have some vendetta against me and I don't really care why anymore. Pleae just STOP making snide comments about me and twisting my words around and trying to goad me into your petty argumnents.
Yes I mentioned Vanity is the one I really want. As in really really want! As if please if I get refunded for any prints please let it not be that one because I love the Mao prints! Do you really think I would have dropped almost $1000 oon the other two prints if I did not like them? Seriously? Can you be that stu...
Forgive me that you couldn't comprehend what I was saying. I bought three because like everyone here I had no idea what prints if any would be released next, and Mao being one of the last ones released I bought after I already bought the other two but would take that one above all the others.
It's a simple concept but please forgive me if I didn't explain it in such a long winded manner in which you could understand! Please, forgive me!
Now if you wnat to get serious if you would have asked me last week. I would have said 100% that Faile should sell only print per person. But as it was set up and I don't even know if I'm going to get anything I did try and buy several because I know I may well still end up with nothing.
And I actually have already been PMing with people about trading and swapping and even selling at face value if I actually do get all three prints because that's more than I really want to spend at the moment. SO before you go off insulting and cursing out people on this forum please get the situation clarified before you do.
Thanks so much. Have a great day.
