FFS give it up man. You're been proven incorrect on this time and again and every time you post it gives you less and less credibility.
First it's there is no market for the print at the release price (incorrect). Then it's everyone that bought these are foolish (incorrect. Flippers extremely happy proper collectors happy). Now it's these won't maintain value.
Did the twins make fun of you at a bar or something? A lot of hatred.

Trade Banksy vs Os Gemeos, by Petrusino on Feb 2, 2014 1:12:07 GMT 1, Yes, I was wrong; but only because in June they are preparing a show in Brazil in conjunction with the Fifa World Cup; so, will be back some hype for The twins. However for me it's crazy to swap a signed banksy print for one of these. do not be angry. De gustibus non est disputandum..

I hate to say this to you but they have another planned in 2015 in New York. I can't believe the twins have the audacity to showcase their work around the world. Awful.

Trade Banksy vs Os Gemeos, by Petrusino on Feb 2, 2014 13:53:41 GMT 1, This signed poster does not worth 4k, at the release! and certainly not worth a signed Banksy print; Banksy is already in history; myriad of art critics have dedicated books to him; newscasts from all over the world have made specials about him ; his works were purchased by rockstars. People take from the streets the walls on which he painted and sells them. its history, its life is perfect for a movie. His art, his works are pure innovation in artistic manner and in social messages. It's not just because "he never made โโa print before"..
Os Gemeos do not have more artistic value or more attitude on the streets than Blu, Ericailcane or SAM3.. to name a few...

Hahaha ok I thought you were trolling before and now with that post you just confirmed. You really are new to the scene huh? The twins have been around longer than banksy. There's a reason banksy asked them to collaborate with him at his latest show.
And I have a Sam3 original piece and a blu etching. Neither of those artists touch the twins in terms of where they are in their careers. Both incidentally are incredibly nice and approachable.
Really. Please. Do some research I beg of you. You still say the print isn't worth 4k. That's astoundingly obtuse.

Trade Banksy vs Os Gemeos, by Petrusino on Feb 2, 2014 15:04:54 GMT 1, This is the wikipedia page of the twins (which exists only in English and Portuguese):
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Os_G%C3%AAmeos
And this is the wikipedia page of Banksy (translated into myriad languagesโโ, as with any artist of upper level)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banksy
Do you a little research....ask your neighbor if he knows who banksy is and then ask if he knows who "Os Gemeos" are
I know you're trying to convince yourself you've made a good purchase to pay what you paid for this print. the important thing is that you like it.
Os Gemeos do not have more ARTISTIC value or more attitude on the streets than Blu, Ericailcane or SAM3..

I asked my neighbour and my god you were right! He never heard of the twins. I stand corrected. Thank god I could point him to Wikipedia.
Sorry you missed out on the flip you wanted cause the price scared you. Have fun watching the auctions. I'm out.

Trade Banksy vs Os Gemeos, by sal on Feb 2, 2014 16:48:51 GMT 1, Petrusino, seriously amico, I don't think I ever wrote this on a board, but you should SHUT UP!...
It's border line ok to fix your frustration on a general thread about release/artist but to hijack someone's trade thread is just WRONG! I get it that you have your opinion, and that is fine, but you are DEAD WRONG about pretty much everything you stated in the last week or so. Seriously! The fact that Os Gemeos are not big or important in your eyes, doesn't make any difference for the rest of the world, so you should stop fighting the windmills. Comparing them to Ericailcane or SAM3 is just hilarious. Talking about them being hyped up is a bit retarded to say the least. And the fact that Banksy did a collab piece with them (one of the few collabs he ever did), should be an eye opener for you alone. Think about it!
Just accept that you don't know/like em as much as many other people out there, and move along. It's really as easy as that.
And a friendly suggestion - don't ever use the "ask your neighbor" argument for a reference of someone's quality, as it makes you look superficial and dumb. Im sure my neighbor knows Justin Bieber and has never heard of Gil Scott Heron, and that surely doesn't make Justin a better musician.

"Comparing them to Ericailcane or SAM3 is just hilarious"
Now I understand from which side you judge the art; but only til someone do not compare the twins to someone else in that sense; ...in that case: Fire and Flame!
Ok; I'm SORRY; I understand from your tones; It is precisely my frustration to emerge here! LOL
I thought we were on the banksy forum ..... how stupid am I??!!!
I can not believe I can't say what I think, just because each of you has spent 4k euro for this.
Keep calm and be happy; life is short.

Trade Banksy vs Os Gemeos, by eschiff on Mar 10, 2014 16:37:56 GMT 1, i have the twins print, don't have vlh but have a couple banksy's. I agree with @coach though, just choose whichever image you like more, it's a pretty fair swap. At the moment, much harder to get one of the twins prints than a banksy print in the same ballpark (i guess around 4.5 - 6.5k?) but if you're not a big Os Gemeos fan than that may mean little to you.
