LAZ = FUCKING JOKE, by cashman on Sept 19, 2007 21:50:27 GMT 1, Antony should be concerned, not from the financial rewards but from the lack of integrity from areas of his agents company. It's amazing how much you can get away with when you have a couple of golden geese. Maybe these geese should seize laying there eggs! +1 90% of the people on this board and in that queue wouldn't have a f**king clue who Micallef was if it wasn't for Laz. Micallef is having a blockbusting million dollar show in LA, as has Faile and Banksy.. hardly gonna cry to Laz cos a few hundred flippers are crying that they didn't get one of his 1k prinst. Especially when POW simultainiously released a 1000 edition at less than a third of the price. f**k, 90% of the posts on here relating to the LAZ prints pre-release gave them a right old slagging. The same people gonna now mail LAZ/Micallef crying that they didn't get one ?.. jeez.

LAZ = FUCKING JOKE, by carlito on Sept 19, 2007 21:50:35 GMT 1, gotta wonder if the family that everyone is referring to paid by the same credit card? wonder if that was allowed, or if each of them had their own bundle of cash? doesn't really matter I guess, but if Laz allowed 24 prints to go on one or two credit cards, well, that would just be more a poor show than it already seems
they were working in cash as far as I could tell..he also had some bloke off the street with him....he looked well happy with himself...

LAZ = FUCKING JOKE, by atkuefler on Sept 19, 2007 21:54:48 GMT 1, I just got back from sitting in line for 6 hours in LA..... There was only about 70 or so people in line. Lots of Forum people there and it was a good time. I bought the Minotaur and Peacekeeper. I got there at 8am and the doors opened at 12pm and I was 7th in line. Sounds a bit different than it was in London. Apparently Jack Osborne bought the original Minotaur???

I'm still not convinced that the prices won't drop below the original price. heres hoping anyway. would serve him right.

LAZ = FUCKING JOKE, by buffin on Sept 19, 2007 22:04:19 GMT 1, Really feel for you people who queued politely today and had to suffer all this. Contrast this with my experience for the Found exhibition at TLSG. On my first visit the gallery owner brought us out a beer and Frankie gave me a free print (a cracker at that). On my second visit Beejoir bought us a coffee and when it started raining we were invited inside and told our prints were guaranteed so we could head off to the pub. Now thats customer service!

I agree that Frankie's customer service is generally great. Though fact is that we saw very similar problems with the SBFO release to those we've seen today, albeit on a much smaller scale.

That is LAZ's fault...for allowing such sales.(...and they are the ones that are so "uptight" about the guest lists, and which so-and-so is purchasing the art) They obviously, want the "flippers" out there...pushing the sales figures higher, on the secondary market. that creates a higher value for the originals....and who owns those?!

dave, I was there with my wife about 4 people in front of you :-)

I heard of many people there who risked losing their jobs to be i the que - one guy by me was on the phone two or three time pleading and ended up going in the end basically to save his job -
as it happened he wouldnt have got a print anyway by about two or three people - just imagion him losing his job and not getting a print - which could have been avoided if a quick print-to-person estimation was done by the staff!
Also the people serving in Laz had heard nothing of a fight!!!!lol
