Banksy Happy Chopper Print, by GB on Nov 6, 2007 20:57:46 GMT 1, sorry for being dumb but what do you mean by this?
- it has been cut to fit the mounting? - it has been fixed the the mounting by some kind of glue? - it has been mounted and could be damaged as it could be touching the glass?
thanks for the help/info

Banksy Happy Chopper Print, by lesbianwednesdays on Nov 6, 2007 21:02:40 GMT 1, ;D i've just re-read the email i got from him as i was about to quote it, it starts "no, it's not dry mounted........................". i don't know if i was drunk when i read it but was convinced he'd told me it was. i was going to contact him tonight and say that i think it's only fair he put people in the picture, i can't afford it now anyway but if i'd missed out because of that i think i would have hung myself .
so, to correct: this print in question is not, NOT mounted (dry mounted). do question where you see that term though, just make sure you read the reply properly .
derrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!

Banksy Happy Chopper Print, by finsburyparkranger on Nov 17, 2007 0:47:11 GMT 1, This is ebay terminology meaning this happy chopper print is not mint. At least thats how i read into it. You've got to be careful.
"There is no fading or discoloration from UV damage. The paper is free of any rips, tears, wrinkles, or blemishes and there is no damage from humidity. The first picture in my listing is a stock image of the artwork, unframed and unsigned. The other two photos are of the actual artwork you are bidding on. "
Smoke and mirrors. No?

In the Q&A section the seller states "artwork and frame is as described; no damage of any kind". I don't think he's being shady. If anything it's the lack of ironclad provenance that kept big money away.

Banksy Happy Chopper Print, by ricosg11 on Nov 17, 2007 2:25:10 GMT 1, He seems like a good guy. I asked some questions of the seller. Said I could come check it out in person if i liked, but that was when the price was at 3k. I guess you uk'ers arent "always" put off by having to pay incoming VAT.

I'm sure someone has the stats or you could check expressobeans (I'm sure you know that already ;D )

Banksy Happy Chopper Print, by RBK on Dec 5, 2007 0:08:37 GMT 1, Thanks RBR - Deep End moved down on my hitlist queue a few weeks ago. While it is still on there - it has been bumped down by a few other goodies.
I know the HC is only worth what I'm willing to pay - but what my bank account tells me I have to/should pay is making it a tough decision.
Expressobeans didn't really have much info - if anyone has this please post. Much appreciated. Or even more importantly if someone has a HC they want to swap

i know someone on here paid ยฃ2k privately recently, not my place to elaborate on that really. i would say that is about fair but it's more a case of tracking one down first really
good luck!
