What do you REGRET Selling, Buying or Not Buying, by naughtyshorty on Feb 16, 2016 9:11:25 GMT 1, I bought a gwb for ยฃ2k and regret not buying a second for the same price from the same gallery a few months later. But... To be honest, by the same token, I don't mind as I didn't need two and someone else would have ended up with it.
I do regret being pretty uninformed about where to buy banksy stuff when I first stated following him. I literally had no idea...

What do you REGRET Selling, Buying or Not Buying, by vernaxley on Feb 16, 2016 12:09:45 GMT 1, Forgive my ignorance but why did Antony Micallef / Antony Micallef art prints bomb so dramatically? What exactly happened and why? What is market rate now and has it affected him as an artist?
Micallef was a victim of both intense speculation and followed by the credit crunch. With Laz now heading to Mayfair he'll be well looked after in the long term.
It's poignant, but hardly surprising that most regret expressed here is related to a missed/eventual value of something which remains a big bone of contention here, especially when it comes to people selling at a profit. Or bailing out because they've made a loss rather than holding a little longer onto the belief in the value of the art they've invested in.
It makes you wonder why so many whinge about the touting of value when it is clearly fundamental to this forum's very existence.

This is true... the jump in value is part of the attraction in collecting (whatever you collect).
It's the buying JUST to resell (and quickly) that pisses people off.

Doing it as a business, and so clinically, sucks the fun out of it. I can't explain it to you more than that.

Exactly. If you are doing it as a business, then appreciation of art clearly isn't your primary objective. Money is. Which tends not to go down so well with art lovers...!

What do you REGRET Selling, Buying or Not Buying, by Jeezuz Jones Snr on Jan 4, 2017 23:17:20 GMT 1, Only picked up two prints by dale marshall and Gary stranger, no regrets art wise although I thought there would have been more quality releases around Xmas.
One regret is I took on a new job, went up the ladder, a lot more $ but it just means you have to be more of a c*nt to everyone, not good. So thinking of total new plan owning own business and giving that 100%..

Been there done that........... it made me feel like shit, I can't discipline someone for some of the pathetic excuses management come up with when they want to start cost cutting or because they have a grudge............
If you can go self employed fella...... go for it, I wish you all the best.

It doesn't count if you regret it now, because it's worth a lot.
My tiny regrets were: Parra's Tomato person lamp and Pez Hope Scotch.

None are due to any price increases, just a gnawing feeling because, for me, they were perfect pieces. Financial regrets are too, too numerous to even think about(as I sit here and eat ramen and not the good kind).
BAST - this college was at New Image Art back in the day. I think it was $4k. Regret because I still think about it now.
Garry Simmons - untitled gouche and chalk on paper. 28"x20", sold at Phillips for $4375 back in 2008.
Dash Snow - paper collage, 13"x10", sold for $6875 back in 2009. P-E-R-F-E-C-T-I-O-N.
