Faile 🇺🇸 New Print Release • Show News • Art For Sale, by Happy Shopper on Mar 18, 2010 18:51:02 GMT 1, Actually love Wrong End of the Rainbow.
Not the most pretty Faile but a strong message. (or could be interpreted as a strong message about something anti American!)

I don't know. Those background layers are pretty intense. Whoever bought one MUST supply pics when they get it.

Faile 🇺🇸 New Print Release • Show News • Art For Sale, by iheartnewyork on Mar 18, 2010 19:50:14 GMT 1, Right, prints are up every few minutes. Just grabbed a blue "No Escape". The missus doesn't like it as much as I do, so I'm releasing it right now. Go get it. I know I will regret this, but as someone said, 2000 are better spend on a original.

Almost did but really, thinking about it...as many said, you can get an older print, lower run for MUCH less on Ebay...so can't really think of any reason.

Quality Street innit.
For me,
Amongst all those yukky strawberry and minty things there's a nice hazelnut praline
For you,
Amongst all those yukky praline and toffee things there's a nice minty or strawberry one
Despite no one (I know) liking them,
Everyone is a coffee one!

Faile 🇺🇸 New Print Release • Show News • Art For Sale, by silvermyn on Mar 19, 2010 11:10:38 GMT 1, Buying a new Faile print these days is a bit like buying a new car IMO. The minute you drive it off the forecourt a brand new car looses a large % of its value. Generally, the dearer the car the larger the % drop seems to be. The minute pull the trigger on a new Faile print you're $'s/£'s out of the money too.
At these prices, buying a new Faile print you are pretty much guaranteed to lose money on it should you need to sell for whatever reason. Very few can afford to be in that position for a print that they are only luke warm about at best. I'm not suggesting the prints should be underpriced but they do seem to be around twice the price they might reasonably warrant on the open market.
As others have already mentioned, the secondary market offers much better value for collectors. To draw on the the earlier parallel, I'd much rather take a chance on a second hand BMW than shell out for a brand new one. The financial side should not be the driver with the art we like but it does matter a huge deal to most.
10 ways is the winner for me and the other prints look fab too but at these prices I have to pass.

Faile 🇺🇸 New Print Release • Show News • Art For Sale, by alexnh123 on Mar 19, 2010 11:11:22 GMT 1, vaidade looks lazy; the tiger face doesn't sit right imo. I think these guys are stuck up their own rses in terms of their pricing structure. Bast p.i.sse.s on these guys; and i get the impression they sort of patronise him with their higher profile, which I don't think they quite warrant. Bast’s one man efforts are loaded with so much more raw energy than anything the Patrick duo, and no doubt their assistants throw together. They've got too comfortable churning out this graphic design. Needless to say i won't be buying this or anything from them and i sort of look fwd to their demise. Bast is slowly knocking them off the pedestal that they've put themselves on. You can go ahead and shoot me down, but I’m wearing a bullet proof vest on this one! (I’m the terminator, you can't kill me!)

I dont think he is coming anywhere close to them profile wise either. I think Faile should of stayed together, 2 Pat's, Bast and Aiko, prefered it then. They need to come up with some new imagery.

Bast is an artist. Faile have gone all production line. They're in danger of sailing very close to the wind of being a brand.
Horses for courses though. Time will tell, but then again even that isn't the be all and end all. Personal preference now and in the future is what should reign supreme!

Couldn't agree more with the Bast comment. I think he's streets ahead, and the longer it takes for people to catch up with him the better. Though I admit i'm comming at this from a fans point of view.
(Do like "vaidade" though)

Faile 🇺🇸 New Print Release • Show News • Art For Sale, by adewilliams on Mar 19, 2010 12:31:14 GMT 1, interesting argument with bast and faile both having prints available at the moment on their respective websites, and both artists seem to have priced the work a little high for most consumers. I personally favor faile but don't see a huge difference in what each are doing. Both excellent. Good luck to them - maybe the trend of selling at below market value is dwindling, I hope so.

 you obviously have strong, but in my opinion unfounded beliefs. fuck knows why you would like to see the demise of Faile, utter nonsense. But each to their own. Do you have a large collection of Bast works?

Faile 🇺🇸 New Print Release • Show News • Art For Sale, by spaceshrew on Mar 19, 2010 12:52:47 GMT 1, The last Faile i bought was Star spangled, i thought it was OK, but at $350 was prepared to take a chance, very fairly priced, and guess what it looks amazing framed and on the wall.
I'm sure some of these would look equally as good framed, but at $2000, who can afford to take that chance, i know i can't.
I like '10 ways' and IMO it's the strongest image, simply because it's from the time i found Faile the most exciting, but i don't love it enough to pull the trigger.
