Faile boxes back on Laz, by la on Mar 2, 2008 0:33:36 GMT 1, Seriously folks, how many galleries withdraw their artists work from sale and then the next day price it to match the results? How many serious bona fide galleries representing top tiered artists do this? Let me tell you not may respected galleries do this. Because most respected galleries understand market fluctuation as well. I can give you many examples such as artists whose work sold for $20k at one auction and similar piece sold for 5k months later. How many galleries price their artists work up or down every other week to match auction results? You have to be kidding me. I can give you examples as well of galleries that sell photos or paintings for an artist and priced under their highest auction price. Why? Because galleries for one thing want to keep their collectors happy and they also know they're going to be losing sales and sitting on overpriced inventory isn't good for them or the artist or the collector. Most galleries set a prices for an artists work based on size and medium. Obviously prices will increase to reflect increased demand, often they will warn their clientele of an impending price increase. Only the lowest of "dealers" change their prices everyday to cash in on auction frenzy. And if you can't see how plainly obvious it is that Lazarides is being opportunistic and greedy then your blind. But what else would you expect from Frankie who does the same thing? Sorry darjeeling I responded before you modified your post and added the last comment. Have you ever sold anything before? If so, how do you price things? Or do you just sell them at the same price you bought them for even if it did go up in value?
I agree with Frankie on this one. Why would you sell something below market value. Supply and demand dictate prices
