Graffiti Prints Archive Vaults TODAY, by Acme Thunderer on May 7, 2023 17:19:15 GMT 1, I found this statement highly amusing. A lot of the vault items will be unsold. Last time, even all the Whatson items took a while to eventually sell. There is a lot of apathy with these sales as certainly not fair prices. Yes, not all the prices are fantastic deals, but I did manage to bag a Beejoir Immodium 70 original at a very good price tbh! Definitely the thing there (but I already had the print).

Heni x Invader 'Rubikcubism', by Acme Thunderer on May 7, 2023 9:22:13 GMT 1, Keen to see pictures of where you guys ended up hanging your Heni invader. "Tried" a few of my walls, but with a 14kg baby its not easy to move around. And what hardware did you hook it with? Also i did that dumb thing of not putting the order on time, so I bought secondary.. This one has not the top place, only the country life will be in the living room. But this one can be seen from the dining room with a nice perspective when you seat at the table. Originaly I just wanted the country life but I had a regret for the camo so I bought it too and had to find a place for it. This one is not that bad, better than my storage room anyway! Looks like the Invader is wearing the lampshade...

Banksy Stamps release @ Ukraine, by Acme Thunderer on May 5, 2023 17:04:08 GMT 1, There was me thinking this was an art forum. Why are people trying to flog postcards and postal stamps? Not flog, but trade. Itโs when forum members are nice to other and help each other out.

Heni x Invader 'Rubikcubism', by Acme Thunderer on May 5, 2023 15:24:53 GMT 1, What we can say for sure right now is that the only public sell (country life on ebay) went for around twice the original price. Just received mine today, I think they are beautiful and canโt wait to have them on my walls. Iโm not an Invader expert at all (or more generally an art expert), but have been considering pulling the trigger on something by Invader for several years, and this seemed to be the closest to what I was looking for on many aspects. A poece of this size for that price just seemed too good to pass, despite being less exclusive that his works on paper. I will look the price evolution from afar but wonโt be selling anytime soon whatever the price may be. Refreshing to hear someone got one because they like it. That is what itโs all about. Enjoy it and welcome to the forum.

Banksy Stamps release @ Ukraine, by Acme Thunderer on May 5, 2023 14:48:31 GMT 1, A friend of mine, has a canvas with all the background and certificate of authenticity. I think very difficult to find given the rarity. I wouldn't even sell the postcard. That would be crazy. These are unobtainable pieces today. Exchange them for a frame? A robbery. If anyone has one of these postcards, I would be up for trading it for a frame (I already have the frame in hand and obtained from ukrposhta). Cheers for the bump. Iโm still happy if someone has one of these postcards they got for โfreeโ to swap for a frame that I bought direct from ukrposhta. ๐

Heni x Invader 'Rubikcubism', by Acme Thunderer on May 5, 2023 11:22:39 GMT 1, โฆfor small editions of prints on paper The most important things are image quality, the signature, and size. Just wait for the fall results. Theyโll be positive. The actual problem was the image quality, size and signature sticker on the back.
I love Invader (buying my first in 2005) but like others were left completely underwhelmed.
After a few years they might be a little positive, but the Invader collectors wonโt be queuing up.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by Acme Thunderer on May 5, 2023 10:49:01 GMT 1, I genuinely still have no idea what an NFT is An NFT makes their owners believe that they are entitled to special privileges for as long as they own it (and as such they can constantly moan if they donโt get what they want). It is also a bit like owning some โmagic beansโ in that the owner thinks they are magic, but everyone else knows they are not. ๐

Miss Bugs โข Drugstore Tablets & Capsules, by Acme Thunderer on May 3, 2023 18:34:19 GMT 1, Just got this from Miss Bugs, will post pic when it arrives.. Hi All, I hope you are all well, and thank you for your patience. We are in the final stages of the gift and preparing everything to package and send out. These will leave the studio in batches over the next few weeks. So keep an eye out for the post. HEADS UP If you want to add to your lollipop collection, we have a few extras that will be available to purchase soon. These feature Medical grade stainless steel handles and have a variety of new flavours. If you haven't already, sign up for notifications via the link below. Please be aware that I cannot respond to emails directly due to high demand for these pieces. Here is the link www.missbugs.com/email-notificationKindest regards Sue Sue Lee Studio Manager Miss Bugs I'm surprised she says "stainless steel handles". The images I have seen most certainly do not look like stainless steel to me. The free gift ones are with plastic handles, then then extra ones for sale are stainless steel. Glad to see they will come with plinths.

Banksquiat. Boy and Dog in Stop and Search, by Acme Thunderer on Apr 30, 2023 12:12:06 GMT 1, Not all people follow the Banksy market. Not all people care about that kind of money. It large, iconic, authenticated. In the long run this will be money well spent. Banksy has his place in the art history books: most artists discussed on here have not. The piece at Sotheby's was a large iconic and authenticated piece (shredded girl with balloon ) whilst falsely dated by 12 years, with a COA falsely dated by 9 years with a battery that was only produced after 2013 and an IKEA lamp on the shredder video (supposedly filmed in 2006) that was only released in 2016. Plus "Banksy" is a collective that outsource ideas from other artists and just stamp the brand name on it - with paid media narratives that stop bad press and control their rivals careers via the most nasty techniques. When the whole truth comes out it will be worth nothing. Have a glass (or few bottles) of this and you will feel much better.

Stik Hackney Holding Hands Poster, by Acme Thunderer on Apr 29, 2023 7:59:17 GMT 1, Hi I have a set of 5 framed and signed prints that my wife has inherited from her uncle. What is the best way to check they are legitimate? We have a receipt and COA from a gallery but the gallery doesnโt seem to exist anymore, Thanks, Matt The COA is worthless Iโm afraid. The gallery, wasnโt really a gallery. You can see the filing history on the link below that it never traded and was probably a bedroom dealer.
find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/13604274/filing-history
You shouldnโt ever try to sell them as signed, but just as regular posters (and you canโt even be sure these are legit). At least you have 5 frames.

ARTSY ๐บ๐ฒ Urban Art Auctions, by Acme Thunderer on Apr 26, 2023 22:12:19 GMT 1, Hear you loud and clear. Even a leopard can change its spots nowadays. Tate just pitch to high and reserves can be high. So these classics look good vfm. I looked at the William George auction and it is littered with fakes and knock offs. They use low res images, stock photos and things donโt match up. They have not changed at all and you will be conned. You might as well buy their genuine designer watches instead. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Buy from them and you deserve an award for the most gullible person ever. Canโt make it any clearer.
