Antony Micallef • 21st Century Love, by jonpud on Jul 24, 2007 19:22:42 GMT 1, the prices certainly aren't going down from here.........
No they aint going down, IMO they won't rise much after his show either, I think collectors, enthusiasts and investors have learned from other artists that after the shows there is generally a hike in price, so this time they have bought before the show and just forced the price hike a little earlier!
Think that makes sense! I know what I mean anyway!! ;D

I mean the going price is the going price and yes I realize that the prices aren't going down. I feel that I was quite clear with what I was asking for....
Sorry, think we got off to bad start! You are totally entitled to your opinion and to quote some wise old bastard " I might not agree with your opinion but I would fight to the death to defend your right to air it!"
All I was trying to say was that the price today is THE price and there's no getting away from it, if you read your first post again and had been a little less aggressive then I feel you would probably have opened yourself up to more potential deals!
Good luck finding what you want anyway!

And that was when they were expensive. I bought 'Happy Fucked Up Nuclear Girl', 'No One Understands Me', 'Girl Tokyo', 'Shibuya Crossing'and 'Giant Freak' all for £2,050 including VAT back in October. Madness.

Wow! It would cost you more to sniff one of Micallefs farts today!!
Nice buy and a lesson to all of us, it don't matter how famous the artist is, it don't matter what the asking price is, if you like it the chances are there are others out there who like it to, so get your hand in your pocket and buy it while you can, no need for hind sight then!! Here endeth the lesson!!
Nice buy mate, well done, hope they are all framed and you lovin them!!

Assume you are refering to my comment? Didn't say that I didn't think they would go up, just said that the prices have shot up before the show by miles and that I feel they will only rise a small amount after the show, or not by the same percentage as artists in the past.
Tis only an opinion, I have been known to be wrong twice already this year!

Antony Micallef • 21st Century Love, by ABC on Jul 24, 2007 20:24:42 GMT 1, Im cashing in, well on one anyway, HFUNG on the bay now. Yes I agree that the BIN price is high but when MWIH are selling for over 4k why would I sell mine for 2k just so someone else can sell on? I bought my Micallefs before the hype so I wasn't expecting these crazy prices, I also agree its a hard pill to swallow when you want one. Make me an offer I can only say no but if its 1.5k I will say no and save you the trouble.

I have read your post several times and it translates as 'Shit, i would never have sold it for this price if I had realised it was worth this much!'
In other words a deal was struck with a seller who misjudged the value but honourably stuck by his quted price, it wasn't a deal where the seller knew the going rate and decided to sell it for half its value out of the goodness of his heart!
Still, fair play for honouring the deal!

Antony Micallef • 21st Century Love, by graeme501 on Jul 24, 2007 20:53:40 GMT 1, not at all jonpud, the print was purchased from an online gallery which, if u saw all the prints it sells, knows more than any1 the value of prints
i agreed the price midway before the micallef price boom, and payed the price that was asked for the print, which was the normal price, however there was a period of a few weeks inbetween the agreement and the sale, where the price exploded.
as i never have delt or met with this person, i thought they might pull the deal, but thankfully, he stuck to his word

Its nice when people stick to their word, I have had instances where the opposite has happened, agree a deal on the Monday, travel 200 miles to pay in cash on the Saturday and find that the seller has changed his mind!
Nowt worse!

tbh im not to bothered about the price its worth to sell on as i fully intend to keep it for a good long while, altough its always nice for it to b worth more, coz u dont know what the future holds
i was just happy that i got the print when i could afford it, because now its out my reach

Eff me that hurts, I paid 10 times and still feel like I have got a bargain, its just gorgeous! In fact I am lucky enough to own some nice stuff but the 21st CL is by far the nicest piece I own.
Closle followed by JD! Its stunning when framed and up on the wall!!

Don't think you'll get any disagreement on that score. Still 600 quid is still a lot of money. Not too long ago I thought Laz's prices for the 50 edition prints was a p*sstake. They almost seem reasonable given the current climate. I can't help wondering where Micallef will be at in a years time. Frightening whichever way you look at it.

He will probably be sitting at home contemplating why he didn't buy a 21stCL when he could have afforded it!! ;D
