Banksy Donuts Print, by Unica on May 1, 2014 13:43:20 GMT 1, I would love to know if he would resign it, I'd drop them an email. Going to be a tough sell as a signed version even though it is.

Banksy Donuts Print, by Dexter Bulldog on May 1, 2014 13:49:40 GMT 1, i havent emailed them but i kind of doubt that it would be re-signed. seems like it would open a can of worms. unless it was an issue specifically with this print and the pink crayon fading on some. would still welcome any other donuts owners feedback.

Would reflect on price i guess.

Banksy Donuts Print, by Dexter Bulldog on May 1, 2014 16:43:36 GMT 1, how much do you think this affects the price?
it can be proven as real, its in great shape otherwise, and very sought after image.

Banksy Donuts Print, by Unica on May 1, 2014 17:11:42 GMT 1, Hmm, I'm not sure how much it would be worth as I assume it states signed in the COA. Unfortunately I would think it would be quite a bit lower in price, I certainly would hesitate to pay top whack for it and would probably pass on it unless it was priced a little higher than an unsigned. Is it yours or are you thinking of buying it?

Banksy Donuts Print, by Ruggs on May 1, 2014 17:41:28 GMT 1, I think there were issues with some of the Damien Hirst 'Opium' spot print signatures which he had to resign some years later. Something to do with the ink and the lambda paper stock.

Banksy Donuts Print, by Deleted on May 1, 2014 17:50:38 GMT 1, You should be able to have it re-signed as long as you bought it direct, since it blatantly seems like it is due to the type of pencil/crayon used for the signature, and PC will fully understand that it will depreciate roughly 40% in value otherwise.
I know Banksy is a mysterious guy, but PC should still be capable of handling this.

Just playing Devils Advocate here, why should it decrease in value at all?, its got PC COA so its a known genuine one. Just asking. |

The signature carries some value too i guess. Between the unsigned trolley or signed trolley is a big price difference. The sig adds value (even if the image is exactly the same).
So i guess a signed print without signature would be worth less desirable as the same print with a clear signature. My 2 cents..

I think that when people buy a signed product, they usually want to be able to see the signature and feel like the artist left his personal, lasting impression. At least I feel like that's why I usually buy something signed, versus just an open edition.
And it would almost certainly decrease in value simply due to its comparative quality to the other prints in the edition; people are likely to prefer the signed product with the clear signature, which will lead to the lack of clear signature causing a decrease in demand/price.

Banksy Donuts Print, by Deleted on May 1, 2014 19:55:15 GMT 1, I think it will affect the price to some degree unfortunately but should'nt really, it has the coa and its obvious it hasnt been faded by light because the numbering is nice and strong, theres bound to be some anomolies when signing 299 pink and 299 choccy sigs, pretty tiresome, makes me think of doing lines in school, could be that was the last one he signed before sharpening his pencil again :/
Anomolies annomolies anommolies anomollies bloody phone tells you youre spelling it wrong, it would help if it said how to spell it right uhhh

You really think so? It is sort of a unique situation in that it's not like a damaged painting that can be restored; I wonder if there has been a past instance with a famous artist (other than the Hirst thing mentioned).

Mine looks fine though has never received direct sunlight and is behind museum glass. The color red bleeds faster than any other from the sun so be careful with these.

Banksy Donuts Print, by Deleted on May 2, 2014 17:51:43 GMT 1, That looks pretty bad.
I have a 1950 print that Picasso signed in orange crayon and it still looks good, so crayon can last a very long time. I would take that frame to a good frame shop and confirm that it is UV glass. It may have faded in the light if the wrong glass was used. It happens...
I would also contact Pest Control and see if you can mail it off for a replacement signature. And hey, he may still be in London
Good luck.

As someone else mentioned. Shoot a email over to the pest control guys. You never know, they might ask to see it and get it freshly done for you

Its going to be your problem if you ever come to sell it. Your going to have buyers thinking the same thought you are. Best to get one with no issues, much easier to sell if you ever had to, not saying you would but you never know.

of course, the purchase is made because of the love, not to sell. but anything can happen at any time, and people find themselves in situations they never wish they would end up and its good to know should that ever happen, youre able to get value.
at the moment it just doesnt seem there are many for sale, and people are asking a hefty price if they do come for sale these days. it is probably better to pass, but i just love the image, i want to look at it, (i want to eat it) but the obsessive part of me will look at the signature every day like the picture of michael j fox in back to the future slowly disappearing from existence. tough call, maybe ill hear something good from pc, but not holding my breath as i am sure theyre swamped.
