FS: Faile book cover OG - BELOW COST PRICE!!, by Zippy on Dec 22, 2011 0:23:29 GMT 1, A good friend of mine in LA kindly bought me a book cover from the PNB show.
However, being married with 3 children, my wife (who normally lets me hang any art) put her foot down and said 'no way'.
So, here's one for the single guys or those with 'broadminded wives!'
now with COA.
My Faile is available again.
Reducing it to ยฃ500 + shipping which is BELOW COST price.
Would like to get it sold this week. Can meet up if in London.

FS: Faile book cover OG - BELOW COST PRICE!!, by Zippy on Dec 22, 2011 0:26:20 GMT 1, I had it on ebay (if I am allowed to say that on here!) but the buyer refused to proceed as I did not have the COA from PNB in LA. 
I have asked the forum member to get in touch with PNB and see if they did issue COA's for these.

No COA from PNB, only a receipt. I didnt buy a book but I did buy a bigger piece and that is what I got.
Don't expect much from PNB.

If not, what did you say when he came back with this?
As you say, it would take someone fairly broadminded to have that on their wall.

He bought 2 of them, and surprisingly, the one he has kept is lovely. 
He knows that I can not hang this at home.
I think it could be my first piece to put into Auction.

Here is a picture...
So, can I now get this sold before re-listing it on eBay?

I only ask because I assume the book cover isn't signed... yet Gestalten state that the three they have on display in Berlin are signed... & I wonder if their description is misleading.
Any other Faile book cover owners care to comment...?

FS: Faile book cover OG - BELOW COST PRICE!!, by Zippy on Dec 23, 2011 12:09:36 GMT 1, Sorry speebe,
I never replied to you.
It is not signed on the front and I very much doubt it is on the reverse. It came framed so I would not want to open it up.
This is one of the rarer ones that has writing on it and the "captivating" and "faile" have been screen printed.
I thought under cost price and with the coa coming, it would have gone by now..

Me too... Too many men of a certain age that're clearly under the thumb.
I only ask as my wife bought me a book cover for Xmas!

When you say that this is below cost, is it because you are calculating customs/tax into the cost price?
I ask because these were sold for 650 USD from source. Your current asking price of 500 GBP equals approximately 780 USD.

That worked out over ยฃ550.

Here's a photo from their 2005 show in San Francisco.
Good luck with the sale Zippy...
