Also kept all my previous PMs over the years and the same people keep trying, and keep getting ignored.

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by Graham H on Oct 29, 2020 15:20:34 GMT 1, What a great sales thread.. hopefully these life changing amounts will lead to life changing things
Can only imagine how it feels to have bought a piece for £150..enjoyed it for 15 years.. then sell it for nearly 700 times what you paid for it
Best of luck with the mail box filling up and hopefully you do get one or all of them away with as little hassle as possible

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by lv90210 on Oct 29, 2020 15:45:59 GMT 1, My annual sales thread, one (and only one) of these babies is going to be heading to a new home. I’ve had my fair share of conversations with galleries over the last few weeks so know the regions I’m aiming for as stated below. The sale that gets me the best value in my eyes is the one that will go through. Option 1 LIITA Signed COA in hand, owned since 2008 and provenance documentation from prior owner. Excellent condition. Currently unframed. May be open to a px here (Festival, Happy Choppers, Rude Copper or CWSB). Looking at well clear of £300k here be of interest. Condition report from Caroline Harrison in hand which will be sent with pictures to serious bidders in due course. Option 2 Gangsta Rat (Red) Signed, COA in hand. Owned since new, purchased at Santa's Ghetto December 2005 with original receipt (yup, £150!) Excellent Condition, currently unframed. Condition report from Caroline Harrison in hand which will be sent with pictures to serious bidders in due course. Price of interest over £100k Option 3 Colour Trollies (signed obv) COA in hand. Owned since new so all original provenance/email documentation to hand (I think I still have the original tube too in the loft). Framed to conservation standards by MFM. Pictures to serious bidders in due course. Price of interest around £50k Geography wise, I'm based on the Devon/Cornwall border but am willing to travel. Would prefer UK, face to face dealings with direct bank transfer at point of sale and deposits if I'm travelling. References/ID will be required to complete a sale. Lots of previous dealings with many forum members over the near 15 years this site has been running. I'm not going to be rushed into making a sale-choice, going to give this a few days of air for people to see before starting to reply to serious conversations Sunday/early next week. Bottom feeders/spivs will be ignored. Thanks for looking. Take your time before messaging.

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by alvington89 on Oct 29, 2020 20:07:19 GMT 1, Back in the day, I thought about upgrading my unsigned Gangsta Rat for a signed. I paid £ 450.00 for the Rat and saw a signed one for sale just afterwards for £ 1,350.00. After consideration, I determined that £ 1,350.00 was a ridiculous price for a print and started buying 2 stroke motorcycles instead.

Hang up were asking for GBP 190k for the unsigned they had recently.
Don't know how much it sold for but it's off the site now....

it didn’t sell. They had a fixed period to realise a sale and did not therefore it was revoked.

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by therivler1 on Nov 18, 2020 15:30:09 GMT 1, I always thought it was 100 signed as that is what everything says online.
Christies has the AP coming up and they say this:
www.christies.com/lotfinder/paintings/banksy-love-is-in-the-air-6299753-details.aspx?from=searchresults&intObjectID=6299753
"Executed in 2003. This work is one of twenty-seven signed artist's proofs, aside from the edition of five hundred of which only the first fifty were signed, and is accompanied by the Certificate of Authenticity from Pest Control."
I sent them an email asking to clarify if that had been confirmed with PC. Can anyone here definitively say if 50 or 100 were signed?

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by artforartssake on Nov 18, 2020 16:54:35 GMT 1, I was always under the impression it was 50, but that's also in my interest ;-)
There was also rumour to the effect that procedures at POW during the early days were a little disorganised at times and in reality nobody knows the answer. Only Pest Control knows how many have been registered for sure.

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by Prescription Art on Nov 18, 2020 17:47:30 GMT 1, They were signed as and when sold, so definitely not the 'first' 50... you can find a signed print in the 400s. 50 is just a good guess as to how many were signed... only Pest Control would know for sure.

Christies would be able to access accurate info from source.
