most of collection FS, by froz on May 27, 2010 2:59:18 GMT 1, So basiclly I could go down the street and pull down One of sheps Pasters from when he was here in 2008(Manifest Hope Denver) and sell it? No offense man, but thats a joke. That paster has more sentimental value than actual value...Just like the guy on ebay trying to sell a MBW paster for 15,000...

These were ripped down pretty fast, not by the council. I hate all sales threads asking for offers, it reminds me of markets in morocco. No offense mate. And good luck

most of collection FS, by timba82 on May 27, 2010 9:53:40 GMT 1, foz and ronhill.....i agree with you both. The shep piece's value is only what the person wanting to buy it thinks its worth.
As i said before i bought the shep piece in an ebay auction and went to collect it from some dude in Archway. I didnt rip this down myself - i never would do that, HOWEVER it had already been done and it was for sale.
I personally love the image hence why i bought it. Its a lot bigger than the print, and it is far more gritty and has a more street feel to it compared to the print. It also helps that the print sells for ยฃ300+ and i bought this for slightly less so in my eyes it was a cheaper and better option for something i could keep for a very very long time.
I've been offered ยฃ300 for it but to be honest i enjoy it far too much to sell it at that price.
I would go as far as saying i enjoy it far too much to even sel.
Ronhill - in 2008 i didnt evn know who shep was so i can promise you it wasnt me ripping that stuff down.
More to the point I have never taken anything off the street and never would hence why i have no guilt in owning this nor in selling it.

So you wouldn't rip it down yourself, but you would buy it off someone else who ripped it down. Bit like saying you wouldn't break into someone's house and steal their TV, but you'd happily wait outside while someone else broke in and nicked it and then buy the TV off them.
Surely you can see how by doing this, you are giving other people the financial motivation to go round ripping things down?

I was interested in the Bast grenade street piece that someone was selling here recently but couldn't bring myself to basically condone theft of street art so i decided to email Bast and ask what they thought explaining the situation and the fact that it would be for my wall, they contacted me back and said go for it.
Got me wandering do we sometimes care more about the street art than the artist.
ps I didn't buy the piece in the end as couldn't agree price

most of collection FS, by snausages on May 27, 2010 20:14:35 GMT 1, So it's ok to dump stuff on the street and illegally paste stuff up.
But it's not ok to tear an illegally pasted poster off the street?
Mark Bradford tears art / posters down off the street and makes canvases with it. So did jacques villegle. Is it ok if it's a "commercial" advert? Not ok if it's "street art?" Ok if it's wack street art? It's ok if a graffiti artist defaces a commercial advert, but not another graffiti piece? What if a commercial advert co-opts a graffiti piece? Turnabout is fair play right? (Would be funny to see corporations throw logos onto street pieces in pseudo endorsements.)
Anyway, I'm so confused. I think someone needs to write a street art ethics handbook so that everyone can keep track of what's ok and not ok.
And maybe drop in an explanation defining biting, copying, plagiarism and "appropriation."
Thanks, carry on.

I could say I have an original Faile Paster I ripped off one of the buildings here and someone offered me $1000 for it and I said no. All you are doing is trying to jack the value of the art up by doing that. You want to be reasonable with a piece like this...sell it for what you paid for it.
You ask what if you didn't pay for it and ripped it down yourself...give it away for a reasonable price, meaning a price you would HONESTLY pay for it, for someone else to enjoy it and hopefully they will pay it forward. To someone else once they are finished with it.

This is a paster, unsigned ripped and taken off the street. You could probably get an unsigned paster way under $100. According to ebeans, a panther power sold for $25, i doubt that was a print, probably an unsigned paster. To expect over ยฃ300 for this is crazy! If you like it that much i would just hold on to it and enjoy it.
