new micaleff prints at LAZ, by paradoxia on Jan 16, 2007 23:09:54 GMT 1, So by my estimation once you add 17.5% vat - thats £4700 each
And you still gotta pay for shipping too!!!

new micaleff prints at LAZ, by ABC on Jan 17, 2007 0:10:41 GMT 1, I dont think they are trying their luck at all. The last two 21st century prints sold at 4k plus VAT at Eyestorm and one went for around 4.8k on the Bay the other day. It is serious money though and will restrict the bagger issue. Think seriously though, Banksy's Kates, look at the value of those now.

new micaleff prints at LAZ, by jp on Jan 17, 2007 3:39:36 GMT 1, it's all very circular though isn't it? People said the same thing about the Kates, CWSB, and RR. It always seems so expensive at the time, but then when things go up higher, people say "how could I not have seen it, if only I had a time machine!" No one really knows what things will be like a year from now, or 10 years from now. But Micallef prices seem to be going up faster than banksy, and these are editions of 50. Let's see how long they take to sell out.

new micaleff prints at LAZ, by RBK on Jan 17, 2007 4:39:47 GMT 1, Agree with ABC - it greatly diminishes the baggers from coming out in full force - you at least need to have some serious cashflow to do so. Personally if I'm paying that much for a piece of art, I'd want an original (not a print, edition of 50).
Sorry to be a d*ck, but I'm going to 'keep it real' as the kids say... Laz isn't catering to the majority of members on these forums. He has collectors/previous buyers with deep pockets that will buy this stuff - oftentimes before even available to be seen by the public. It is a whole other ballgame these days. The Banksy effect will & has helped all the artists in his gallery, the hype of POW/SG only fuels the beast, and the upcoming Sotheby's Contemporary auction will also bring more exposure to his gallery.

new micaleff prints at LAZ, by reados on Jan 18, 2007 13:03:59 GMT 1, they are too exspensive for me even though i love them, and i think in twenty years time if you your fed up with them on the wall they could be worth half the price, artists such as matisse signed two colour lthographs are available for about £6500 on my first few clicks on google, and asuming micallef will be as big as matisse? i guess you cant say?
as an investment it seems a gamble but if you like them and can afford them buy one! i wish i could!

new micaleff prints at LAZ, by donkeydaddy on Jan 18, 2007 14:04:50 GMT 1, I don't want to dig up that old discussion about the 'When I grow Up' flyer handed out at SG......BUT anyone notice that the (wrong) Micallef print has the 'When I Grow Up' tagline and the head of the girl looks similar to the one featured on the flyer? PS I don't have one of these flyers so not interested in hyping it, just struck me as a little bit odd.

Still has to pay 17.5% vat and probably a whopping 20% to his manager. Thats 400,000 left and oh yes then the tax man will still want his pound of flesh and then there are the production costs.
Its still a tidy sum by any stretch of the imagination but no where near 705,000
