BARGAIN NAPALM ON EBAY, by stickitup on Sept 23, 2010 11:17:54 GMT 1, can I count on you for a further offer Alex, this time offer them ยฃ150, if I get my offer accepted there might be a cake and a beer for you too, however I should point out if everyone on the forum offers low and I get my offer accepted it might be cheaper for me to buy it for the price they are asking

Dont Panic Posters "Wild Fantasies" StolenSpace, by stickitup on Sept 23, 2010 11:02:25 GMT 1, I don't think the queue will be that large to be honest, when pow did the nola raffle - a free banksy for one of the lucky people that turned up, it wasn't exactly a stampede and there was maybe 125 people there tops and that was for a print worth ยฃ1500 or something.

TOX ๐ฌ๐ง Graffiti โข Street Art โข Art For Sale, by stickitup on Sept 23, 2010 10:57:50 GMT 1, king Tox, he's under no illusion about what he is, his previous tag was "Crap", which is signed on the prints. Tox is about vandalism not being arty, if you think the work is celebrating his art you have missed the point. A fact some of you might not know is that it is illegal to profiteer from your crime exploits once convicted, I think this print draws an interesting point, that as an artist he is given a cushion from profiteering, but as a vandal he would not be allowed to do this. I'm adding one to my collection, but from a graff background its possible to understand the exploits of trecking out in the middle of the night to put your mark on trains, trackside walks, grabbing a crafty 10 seconds when no one is looking at that blank space, which Tox represents.

ebay seller TATEBRITIAN (sic) - any info??, by stickitup on Sept 22, 2010 9:57:20 GMT 1, yeah its quite common in my experience of items not selling how the seller wanted and they cancel the auction saying they noticed the item was faulty or forgot they didn't have it any more, if this happens check the sellers profile from time to time or do a search for the item and you will find quite frequently the item has been relisted. Ebay unfortunately harbours a big bunch of $hits

**New EINE A-Z Aerial Spot Canvas release **, by stickitup on Sept 21, 2010 13:35:13 GMT 1, think you might find the letter w is slightly wider and means you can't make a square print if you include it - might just be something as simple as that - a grid 5 x 5, one letter has to go, the w as its wider than any other.

Flattening Prints โข Creased, Folded, Rolled or Rippled , by stickitup on Sept 14, 2010 13:39:33 GMT 1, best advice is to try to flatten. It is possible for the paper to be recoloured and the crease hidden by flattening and recolouring, however do not attempt to do this yourself, go to the print and paper conservation guild and seek advice there. If there is a small dink -and i'll advise with a large handfull of caution - you can use a hand sprayer to lightly spray the reverse of the print and then place it between 2 sheets of blotting paper and then between flat heavy card and place a lot of weight on it and leave for a couple of months, it should flatten it back out. But as I say this needs to be done very carefully to make sure you are not soaking the paper.

Art above a Radiator ?, by stickitup on Sept 14, 2010 13:34:48 GMT 1, conservation of paper and artifacts requires a certain humidity level. Placing the artwork over a radiator will subject it to a likely extreme of heat which WILL NOT be good for the work over time.

Mario Testino ๐ต๐ช Fashion & Portrait Photographer, by stickitup on Aug 24, 2010 10:14:49 GMT 1, What always struck me as odd was how Taschen make the book and offer it significantly more expensive so I asked them about this - the response was that Amazon are willing to make a minute profit on many items which count towards a volume of sales profits...ยฃ300 from source must mean theres a huge amount of profit being charged on it, and it seems they all sold $

Flattening Prints โข Creased, Folded, Rolled or Rippled , by stickitup on Aug 23, 2010 16:24:12 GMT 1, ok to go against the thread here, my weston supermere was kept in its original tube since purchased several years ago, I took it out and pretty much straight away put between acid free tissue and board and put weight on it and its absolutely fine....however I would not reccommend this, the only problem was that as it was so tightly roled when I came to unroll it I put a small dink in it. Obviously the experts above know best with the experience they have drawn on. I am interested to know if a print is rippled if it means its unlikely it can be flattened. And also how much of a percentage should this mean the print is reduced in value?
