Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by melmoth on Apr 22, 2008 15:16:24 GMT 1, ;D wise words snakes, i mentioned somewhere else the forums bring together people of similar interests, that demographic has changed a bit over the last year. It only takes one rotten apple to spoil the whole barrel! Where's the likes of lesbianwednesdays, crackawhacka, FPR, CBL etc etc (the good old wise fellas) gone eh?
Sssh now Mr. Snakes - we'll have another poll going in a minute.

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by fatherxmas on Apr 23, 2008 16:43:06 GMT 1, i was about to start a topic but just fort i would look first and this is what i was going to discuss. I guess the ones who fort they would make a quick 5+k are getting stuck with prints they dont want nor can afford. Someone also mentioned the "the greed" factor when it coems to moving these prints on. Just like any business, have a generous mark up and it will sell but when they first coem on the bay "v for vandal" at liek 10k. Come on, Me personally i would of let them go on the day of getting one (which i didnt) ยฃ2k a piece.Nice profit and it would of sold. I see one on the bay for 1495 buy it now (guess the landlord whats his rent haha) and also a vandal airways buy it now ยฃ1700 lol

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by dh on Apr 23, 2008 17:19:09 GMT 1, Good prices, if I had the money I would buy them while at that price. Give it a few months and once they are in the hands of collectors I should think there will be a steady rise in price, especially the 'Lifes To Short' print and Vandal Airways.

Flip this flip that....who gives a fuck!

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by dh on Apr 23, 2008 17:28:59 GMT 1, No, its because 3 prints were released in one day and over 50% always seem to get flipped because its easy money. The Nick Walker market has been flooded, its nothing to do with the quality of the art.

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by spirit on Apr 23, 2008 17:29:19 GMT 1, I think the prices still have a way to fall before they hit bottom. The prints haven't even been sent out yet have they? whole load more to be flipped once they are in hand with everyone very wary of spending serious money for them. Just for fun I predict that V for Vandal will end up going for under 1k, VA for 1200, LTS for 1500. Let's wait and see.

I sort of agree, without putting Walker in the same bracket as Sir Banksy, we seen this happen with colour trollies which at one stage hit ยฃ1350 on the bay! I think it is a consequence of so many prints being released at the same time ie. Trollies 500 and the three Walker releases 375. I think they will rise again in the long run, Walker is a class act! My first ever print was a Nikers!!

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by jed100375 on Apr 23, 2008 17:40:11 GMT 1, Everyone who wants one of these prints at a more affordable price just keep posting things like 'Why does no one want these' and 'So much for a special print'
This may work to a certain extent but i don't think the forum is that powerful that it will bring the prices down so that you can afford to get one with your giros!
Mine will be framed soon!

While I think the forum is very good at creating hype and convincing flippers they can get crazy prices for prints I don't think it will be responsible for prices dropping. The market will take care of that on it's own without any help from here.

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by sahoria on Apr 23, 2008 17:51:20 GMT 1, personally reason his prices have dropped is because everyone seen the first go for ยฃ3.5k and from that everyone tried knocking off ยฃ100 from the other listings and that then went down to ยฃ2.7k etc... your right think the prices will come down some more but think will stick to the ยฃ2k mark for the LTS print... they will rise again but think will be steady increase once more and more people hear how amazing the print actually looks...
surprised so many was on the bay to be honest but now there are only a few and then there will be more of a demand for one and that will push up the prices again... im just happy to have and like jed100375 and others looking forward to getting this framed up...
the vandal and airways print will go down a little to around the price stated above but then they will start increasing aswell... next few weeks will be interesting people will get in there homes and then decide how much they really like...i am sure the ones that have sold already when they open up the tube to take out the print will feel like they have made mistake but each to there own i guess... congrats to anyone that managed to get the prints and are keeping them...s

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by funyoung on Apr 23, 2008 17:54:18 GMT 1, Jed - with the declared interest of so many on here - fret not as the 'power of the forum' will be enough to drive prices back up once rock bottom has been reached.
I want Airways. Always said I did. Having a hard time buying one when they aren't even being sent out for another week. I'll wait and see.
And to you Jed it matters not if everyone says 'so much for great print' or 'why does no one wants these' - after all you are doing the opposite. Evens out really.
Yours will be on your wall. The market will dip and recover. Yours will still be on your wall.
(I hope this is true but in reality it is just my humble opinion)

People were saying the same with the Laz Micallefs... but they keep slowly falling. This is the problem you will always have when more flippers than fans pick them up... You're right someone undercuts by ยฃ100, so someone else does and so on. While I don't think these will hit cost like the Laz Micallefs I wouldn't be surprised to see them ALL nudging ยฃ1000 at some point. Whether they will increase from there who knows, it's possible, but I think Vandal Airways is the only one that might... for me it's up with London TMA as the best in the series.

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by sahoria on Apr 23, 2008 18:05:50 GMT 1, i wasnt to sure about airways till i seen the canvas in person and agree is one of the best from the series... i guess time will tell which way the price will go... if they drop low and go to collectors then i am happy... alot went up on the bay in short period of time but in truth havent seen that many airways sell on there... LTS print is fav of the prints released that day and looking forward to it arriving... micallef did release high edition numbers of the prints though but can understand where you are coming from...s

Huge drop in bay prices for Walker, by melmoth on Apr 23, 2008 18:24:53 GMT 1, I think that the analogy with the Micallef prints holds up somewhat, but with a couple of caveats. Firstly, as mentioned above, the last print drop Micallef did was huge in number - as well as the 1000 GIWTBB prints, there were also the Peacekeeper, etc. another 1600 prints. There are only 375 prints here. Secondly, the Laz experience left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths regarding the Peacekeeper, etc. prints. Thirdly, the Walker hype is, IMO, more than Micallef's was at the time of the Laz show, at least in terms of 'profitability'. People, at least with any sense, will be waiting for the inevitable 'flood' of ebay sales to subside.
If you want to put markers down with regards to long term predictions, I think that it's 1.5k for V, 2k for Airways and 2.5k for Life. Not Banksy levels, but still a reasonable mark up.
