FAILE @ Christies Feb 17th, by ABC on Jan 31, 2011 12:22:05 GMT 1, I cringe when I look at the faile prices. I had the chance to buy a couple of canvases at the Portland show in 06 at $3k each. I had the money too, I was just concerned about shipping them over to the UK, what a fool.

FAILE @ Christies Feb 17th, by snausages on Jan 31, 2011 22:23:31 GMT 1, Strong Faile canvas. I'd really love to bid on it but would need to shift some things around to pay for it โ I think it will probably hit the top estimate myself. Was that about $15-16k retail back in 06/07?
