Invader โข Invasion Kits IK, by davievegas on Dec 4, 2014 0:26:08 GMT 1, The last one was bigger and $1k was the price? I didn't get a chance to see the last one. If this is smaller and more expensive, then at least you know Inflation from the artists is on the horizon If it is not already here. Unless the edition is smaller then I do not understand the price hikes. It seems once these guys realize that their art is selling out over time consistently, they bump the prices up and up.
At this rate people wont be able to collect certain artists. Its hard enough to get a Invader piece these days. He has been around forever and I would like to get something of his before the cost for each release gets absurd.

Thats my mindset, since I only have limited funds and if necessary I need to know I would get my money back in a pinch. Banksy is cash, plus I love his art, particularly this image. I suppose if money was no object I could take more of a gamble on artists that I like. Sadly i'm not able to do that and have to play it a bit safe when buying expensive art.
Ya, but I think most people have this mentality. We all have to be conscious of what we buy when it comes to art because of the prices and so forth. I look at art as an investment. I love to collect personal artists that I like BUT you get stuck between and rock and a hard place sometimes because of the budget that we each have to buy art. Obviously it varies from person to person BUT I feel that the majority feels the same way as we do.

Please help me out with some advice., by davievegas on Dec 3, 2014 19:29:38 GMT 1, No matter the outcome of this, I would def want to know the artist so we can all tread lightly with his work and dealing with him.

Agreed I just went to the Robert Fontaine Gallery in Miami, they had a lot of his work and nothing I could see below $10k. I would rather have a Banksy.
Exactly!!! I feel the same way. It is just a shame that artists make art that is impossible to collect in a sense because of price. For this type of money, I would rather buy an artist that I know is an investment.

Nick Gentry Art for reasonable prices???, by davievegas on Dec 3, 2014 19:18:37 GMT 1, This is the guy who makes art with floppy disks. His work is amazing BUT over expensive is putting it politely. Does anyone know if this guy sells anything small for a reasonable price? Its absurd to buy his art for his prices which are like $10k+. If I would spend that type of money on art, it would be banksy or warhol etc. Seems to be only originals from this guy

I've really enjoyed the recent letter press releases, but honestly his site is such a pain to deal with, I've stopped trying to score anything
Agreed, but I am a TRUE ADDICT... and despite his BS site, I jtry for the work I love...
Ya, the fact that I have to checkout in obeys cart AFTER already hitting pay with paypal and then losing my print is bs. Happened to me 3 times with this past release. Just an extra step that determines whether we get the prints or not and I think its unneccesary. Sad that a flipper ends up getting it because of this...

FAILE New Prints, by davievegas on Nov 21, 2014 20:41:05 GMT 1, Oh, well I have not gotten any info on my two shipments yet. I check spam folder as well. Maybe it is taking a couple days. I emailed them asking just to make sure...

New Nick Walker, by davievegas on Feb 7, 2013 23:03:17 GMT 1, Ok well, Waiting for almost 6 hours and Im done in 30 min. Nick obviously can give two craps about any of us and will gladly accept our money with no remorse. He doesnt deserve our money

If plenty of us that have been waiting since 8 am do not get a print, ill NEVER buy Walkers stuff again.
I'm so in the dog house, not spent any time with son this evening, wife stormed up to bed...cheers Nick
This is EXACTLY my point. Sorry you have to deal with that my man. I have done this as well(with past gfs with different things) and the headache most of the time is never worth it. If you had a guarantee on this print, I would say its wroth it. None of us do that have been waiting the longest.
