Banksy Grin Reaper Print, by jusdeep on May 12, 2013 10:27:17 GMT 1, It's a great small print, but the printing can be a little iffy on some so be aware.
I always found it odd that this print didn't demand a much higher price. Vastly underrated, but I suppose not everyone wants death staring at them from their walls. I think priced between £3.5-5k is around average, although I have no idea of recent prices.

Banksy Grin Reaper Print, by craigf on May 12, 2013 11:21:30 GMT 1, Good advice on the print quality jusdeep, I've seen a few with black splodges on the clock dial. It's a great print, only a signed edition and an unusual size if you like to mix things up a bit and not only have 50 x 70 Banksy's on your wall 
Price wise I would guess £4k - £4.5k for a private sale

The current value does seem to be £4k ish

No, I don't have one. I was curious because it was one that I would like to own one day.

Banksy Grin Reaper Print, by Quinnster on May 12, 2013 17:49:38 GMT 1, That's sounds a bargain to me if my memory is correct it was a £400 pound print when new..
Probably the worst performing Banksy print in financial terms?

I haven't seen him on here for a while but I think Howlin' Hooker was trying to sell one a few weeks/months ago.

Not really. But when they were first sold, there was at least the pretence that they were limiting the number made, and not just trying to milk Banksy's work and fans.

it's junk / tat / not for the wall.
not worth anything - do you get the message ?
this if it makes your wall will be looked on by everyone including yourself as fake.
way to go ? detail or not - it's still junk.
surprised such tat makes this place but then .. on the other hand it's the level to which this place has descended.
you want something real... ? buy / support an artist.
Not some freeloader... ffs get a grip.

I can't speak for wcp's other prints but Bomb Hugger is an exact copy.

Thats what i've done, got shit loads of them and everyone who comes round to my caravan tells me how cool i am, so i feel good.

Banksy Grin Reaper Print, by Deleted on Jul 17, 2013 14:42:26 GMT 1, Can't understand why some get their knickers in such a twist over this. If I like this print & want to buy it to hang on my wall, what has it got to do with anyone else? So what if other people want to judge me for hanging this, if I like it that's all that matters.
It makes Banksy's art available at an affordable price for those who want to enjoy it & not use it as some kind of status symbol to 'impress' others with.

No, it makes a reproduction of Banksy's art available. There is a difference.
