And I'm talking editions of 7... So my guess is they may have sold out. But Faile being Faile - they'll most likely create something new for those 'extra' orders.

Hello once again,
So some of you may be wondering why you received the previous email and then found the site empty. Everything sold in a matter of minutes and as we were trying to update the site it kept crashing and locking us out.
First off, thank you all for such amazing support.
To those of you who ordered, we are severally oversold. Our sincere apologies for that and our deepest gratitude to you for that. This means that many will get a refund, we will go through chronologically to determine who this applies to. Some of the pieces especially the "Happens Everyday" and "Shanghai Vanity" series had multiple colorways. We didn't even have time to get some of these up so we will go through and offer these to the people who tried for the ones on the site but will find they were already sold. We'll let you know in the next few days who this applies to and contact you privately with some options.
For those of you still looking for some pieces, please contact Lazarides for availability of the typographic pieces and remaining boxes.
Lazarides Gallery: info@lazinc.com or call +44 (0) 203 214 0055
Books should be available soon, we'll keep you posted.
Thank you again.
Our very best, Faile

Faile ๐บ๐ธ New Print Release โข Show News โข Art For Sale, by Octopus UK on Mar 14, 2007 17:58:16 GMT 1, I've looked at the sculpture page and I am interested in the bunny boys - but the postage is $20 per sculpture! Why no discount when I'm buying 4 (the web site says there are 5 colours but I can't see the 5th colour).
Just seen it, Black on the sold out page.

If you email them they may be able to reduce the shipping, someone told me they cna combine the shipping on the books. but I'd take a punt that they're a little busy at the moment so wouldn't expect a reply quickly!

When I ordered quite a few things from them a while back the shipping ended up costing hundreds of dollars, I talked to them and they sent me a Paypal refund for about half of the shipping cost. Very fair people, sure they will do you a deal.

Thanks, I've sent them an email asking if it is possible. I might stroll over to the FAILE forum and check that out. I'm running out of wall space at the moment but I do have lots of flat surfaces that I can clutter up with art now - hence my interest in the sculpturs.

Some of it I like and some I don't, so I didn't buy any of those prints that came up today. Simple reason is that there are some genuine fans out there that really want the prints for their walls. So anyone reading this forum that has only bought a print for the purpose of selling it on ebay at a profit; Be reasonable and email Faile to withdraw your bid. The prints have seriously oversold so you'd be doing them a favour, genuine Faile fans a favour, and lets be honest you'd regain a bit of integrity. I know this sounds a bit pompous, but I think these scrambles are getting ridiculous.

If you're buying 4 surely what you make on ebay will pay for your initial lay out. Or dare I even suggest that that is what you have in mind.

I don't buy art (or anything else really) to sell. All I've ever sold on ebay were DVDs of TV shows I'll never watch again. I just like the sculptures but think that $20 each for shipping could be reduced. I'm probably happy to pay the price if there is no alternative. Gordy, are they cheaper elsewhere then?

I've justed check ebay and there is a Black one for BIN ยฃ99 and a silver one for ยฃ12 odd at the moment (4 days to go). I know the silver ones are special (signed / numbered and from a more limited edition) but this seller doesn't say this or the edition number. I've asked the seller a question about this.

Thanks for your opinion taktheride. I am a bit of a "completest", if there are 6 available, I'd want all 6 or none. But just having 4 is all part of my therepy!
They are plastic resin sprayed? Are they solid or hollow?

I think they are hollow, I can't figure out what the hell its made of, I think some sort of resin. It comes in awesome packaging too.

You are right. The unknown variable in all this is that I am a Yorkshireman and I don't like spending money I don't have to!
I've bought the four now so it's done. I also realise that there may be some import duty/VAT on these. Does "art" attract a special duty?
