How much would you pay?, by Art-el on Apr 2, 2007 11:01:12 GMT 1, Hello
For those out there that really like Signed Sepia Morons, how much would you pay?
I have been offered one for £2,200 but I eventually refused as I couldn't stomach the fact that the seller paid £600 only a few days earlier and was touting it straight out at 3 times the price.
Opinions please

How much would you pay?, by biggayal on Apr 2, 2007 11:24:11 GMT 1, I was fortunate and got a sepia The £2200 you've been quoted is probably about fair, although hard to guage until a few have shifted on e-bay I personally would not pay £2000+ for a print on e-bay as I'd be annoyed in lining someone's pockets to the tune of £1200+ for a print that sold out for £650.... If you like it that much and have the money, then snap it up as I think it's fab!

It really wouldn't surprise me if POW find some more down the back of the sofa.
I agree that eventually these will probably attain the same sort of values as the other signed LA prints. Though, we could see a period at the start where they are somewhat cheaper. If you add the white edition - that's 450 signed, which is a lot.

How much would you pay?, by rolyateel on Apr 2, 2007 13:48:50 GMT 1, i would imagine they'll be a similar price to the grin reaper print (£3000 ish at the moment) - similar run
however you have to factor in that there are more versions of the same image....950 copies in total, so £2200 sounds about right....but like you I'd be loathed to pay it so soon after it sold for £650

Might be a bit cheaper than 3K to begin with, but dare say they will settle out at the same price as the other signed LA, the strange thing is there are less unsigned than signed Moron prints, but they will undoubtedly cost a good deal more, going back to the fact that the traditional price for the signed prints ( back when the runs were split 150signed / 500 unsigned) was for the exclusivity of a rarer print, now its cash for a squiggle. Look at the J&J and CND runs, 350 of both, but a 2-3K price difference, all down to that pencil mark. I have always been a big fan of reaper and find it hard to compare Morons to grin reaper, but as they are both signed, it could well be the way things are going.

i'm with bcfc, couldn't afford or justify spending the £2,200 if i knew the seller got it for £600 a few days back especially as they would seem to be profiteering / taking advantage of the situation, it would be hard to stomach.
the only way i could in fact afford a signed print is to get it off POW in the first place. Mind you it's a bit like getting on the first rung of the ladder in the housing market once in posession it's increase in value would allow me to make more expensive purchases later on.

How much would you pay?, by alvington89 on Apr 2, 2007 14:30:22 GMT 1, It's an annoying situation. Someone has bought something they don't want because they know that you do. I'm inclined not to perpetuate and add to the scalper appeal by pandering to this. So unless POW do find some down the back of the sofa, and I'm lucky enought to acquire one of those, It doesn't look like one of these will be going on my wall.

I'd say that's not an unreasonable offer (sorry for the double-negative) . But would you really want to part with 4 banksy's just to get his name written in pencil on one that you already have?
We all know if ups the value... but it doesn't look very different on the wall.

They will swing into action and not send out his print, thus leaving one going spare for you to gobble up at 657.

How much would you pay?, by pastiepie on Apr 3, 2007 2:33:50 GMT 1, I agree that it lacks tact to offer it up for 3 times the original value when the prints haven't been received yet. In the end the current value of the print is probably around that mark. If they decide to release the next 3 prints within the month all prices will be diluted somewhat, but if it's another 4months then I can only see the prices going.
The Sepia morons is more of a special edition than normal signed prints so perhaps it will settle slightly above the signed editions of grannies and applause.
Bah all I'm doing is speculating. In the end it comes down to how much you want to pay for it. If you don't want to pay that much I'm sure there's somebody out there willing to pay.
Also since when did everyone get employed by POW to be their secret undercover officers, do you really think they are going to read all your emails about how somebody tried to sell you their print? You could just say that someone offered you print no. 62 and you shouldn't sell it to them with no proof.

How much would you pay?, by Ågent ßacardi on Apr 3, 2007 4:08:49 GMT 1, Prices are usually insane immediately after a release... I think it's some sort of panic reaction or something. And yes, there are people who would be willing to pay these insane prices. When Barely Legal opened, all the prints were gone within 90 minutes. One fella in particular bought a Morons (unsigned), and listed it on the very same day on eBay. He actually got a buyer for US$3000 (that's £1520.15 according to today's rate)!!!
However, the prints were only distributed on the last day of the show, and since this $%&#ing bagger listed the picture of the original painting in his eBay listing (he hadn't gotten the print yet!), the highest buyer retracted his offer due to the print looking slightly different than the painting. I think the tout eventually sold to his second highest bidder, but still did well over US$2500 (£1266.79).
When we were in line waiting to get in on the opening day, he was talking about how impressed he was with Banksy's Palestinian stunt and how big a fan he was. Then when we were collecting our prints on the last day, he was boasting about how much money he sold his Morons for, and was going around offering other print buyers US$1000 for their prints so that he could turn it over for a quick profit. Gawd, I hated that guy!

Huh?
Edition of 500, all unsigned (#1-150 released in LA, #151-500 released by POW) Edition of 150, all signed (released by POW) Edition of 300, sepia, all signed (released by POW)
Grand total = 950 altogether, 450 which are signed & 500 which are unsigned
If you're counting only the POW release, then yes, there are more signed than unsigned. But if you count everything altogether, which would make more sense to consider, then there are (slightly) more unsigned than signed.

Actually, the LA prints are indeed part of the same run even though they differ in picture details, because they numbered everything within the same edition of 500. Like I posted earlier, yes you're right... if we count only the POW release, then there are more signed than unsigned, but we cannot separate those released in LA because those were #1-150 out of the same edition of 500 that were released via POW.
It's not the first time that POW released something that had variations within the same run, they did the same thing with Napalm and the Placard Rat...

Is the sarcasm really necessary? I never once attacked you or wrote anything rude or offensive. I thought we were just having a cordial discussion/detective game.
I never meant any offense, but if you interpreted that way, then I do apologize.

All I'm saying is that strictly speaking, because of the way they numbered the prints, they're technically part of the same run. A/P's aren't counted as part of the run because they have their own edition number, i.e., 1/5, 2/5, etc. outside of the 500 or however many the run is. Yes, I agree wholeheartedly that LA and UK morons are quite different, but because POW kept the same numbering and mixed them all up within the same run of 500, it essentially made them part of the same run. Doesn't seem right, but that's what they did...
No offense intended... just merely discussing.

My guess is that they will release the more colorful version of Trollies like they did the sepia Morons... a separate run on its own, probably all signed. And perhaps #151-500 of the unsigned run will be the same as those released in LA?
Just a speculation, but it sounds possible, no?
Although, I also do have a slight problem with them lumping different-looking prints within the same run. Quite unfair to count them together in theory - I completely agree with you. But I guess they ran into problems with the printers here in LA which created the whole mess, and now it's too late to turn back because #50-150 had already been sold... what a mess, eh?

But I guess they ran into problems with the printers here in LA which created the whole mess, and now it's too late to turn back because #50-150 had already been sold... what a mess, eh?
Sad to say but its going to get worse, but for those lucky enough to own a full set of the LA prints, your sets are now rarer than the signed run, might be a good thing to look after them. Didnt like all them respect points anyway.....

It did indeed sound rather condecending AB, we both have valid points in our favour and are both entitled to our opinions, the differentiation of the LA prints from the Uk prints will become more important in the next while, as we have already been told that the trollies print was been reworked and altered with more colour, how far can these changes go and still have the prints considered the same print run? I see what you are saying, as the numbers are sequencial then they must be part of the same run, the LA prints differ from the regular UK release but are counted as part of the release, the sepia image is the same as the regular UK release but coloured differently, and is not counted as part of the sequecial numberd prints of the regular run ( if that makes sense), do we lump everything into one pile or try to allow for differentiation from one print type to the next. No offence ment. Monkeypuzzle
My guess is that they will release the more colorful version of Trollies like they did the sepia Morons... a separate run on its own, probably all signed. And perhaps #151-500 of the unsigned run will be the same as those released in LA?

How much would you pay?, by corblimeylimey on Apr 3, 2007 10:44:55 GMT 1, I'd question the 1-50 with Laz, my Grannies print is number 45 and I've seen others in the 30's and 40's on ebay.

Daniel Silk • The number or Boards and Threads continues to fall as we simplify the layout of the forum.
Daniel Silk • I hear a lot of Artists complaining about Instagram in the past year, how it used to be a good tool for Artists, but it's not good anymore, is that true?
anyaart • For Brett Kern fans, I noticed there is a spinosaurus for sale on E-Bay. It's a limited edition, one of only 60 made. This is the rarest of his dinosaurs. I am not the seller. I already have the same dino purchased in 2016. I've never seen one up for sale
Daniel Silk • Apology • Sorry I have been offline this past few weeks, due to a very bad Fever. I'm slowly getting better, step by step, and catching up with things here on the forum on the days I'm well enough. Thank you for your understanding.
Boy Wonder • I read that they were more or less nicked the same day they went up. Loads of fakes exist.
milou2 • Would love to see any photos of Banksy's first exhibition at the Severnshed in Bristol (2000). Who was there?*
jirr • Hi all, over here in the states. Pandemic put me out of business, need to sell this asap. Please send offers thanks so much
matgab • Steven Harrington - Gotcha first ed for sale.
1nkling • I can't help but think that a more reasonable tier for people who just want to support the work you guys do would raise more income. Then other tiers for those that want specialist benefits.
1nkling • As soon as I saw the heading for the email I thought 'Oh yeah, I use that place a lot. I'd happily support it'. Not at £40 a month though. I have a paid sub for a Formula 1 site I use that is very active. They have a high uptake on subs at £12 a year.
1nkling • Pricing on the new supporters sub seems a bit poorly thought out. £40 a month to have a pinned sale thread being the only listed benefit?
Daniel Silk • The forum now has more than half the number of Boards than it had a year ago! As we work towards simplifying the layout.
ashj52 • Hi everyone; does anyone know where I may be able to find a George condo prism print? Any guidance on price would also be much appreciated! I contacted AA, they said they cannot disclose whether there will be any further drops this year.
