"Screenprint with unique doodle, outside of the edition of 500" - comes with Pest Control I hope! Any idea on price? I'm guessing they want something stupid like £10k+

Should I send an email out every time I have something available? Maybe that way someone will post it on the forum for me. This is the same 'Love is in the Air' that i'm selling. It's got an anarchy symbol by the signature.
I wouldn't say £10k + is stupid for a signed 'Love is in the Air'.

10k + for this print must be about right when you see the prices people have just payed at bonhams

As stated before did anyone see the Bonhams sale?? Can you seriously say that after this a signed LIITA is not worth £10000 plus?? It's better and more desirable than any other print sd at Bonhams IMO Those that slate this price are unrealistic and only do this to try to undermine the market and bag a bargain, they know the real worth if something like this.

I can't see it being worth more than £7.5k personally, Banksy prices especially for prints are drawing back slowly.

The value of everything and the price of nothing. Auctions are intriguing. Bonhams big performance on prints. Bloomsbury auction sold an unsigned morons for £1500+commission this week, in a contemporary prints sale, amongst stuff like Dali, Caulfield, Chagall et al. I think perhaps that is your mark, if you're lucky enough to get your print into that type of sale. Did you value an unsigned morons at £1725?
Expresso beans average for this print is £912 for the last six months, market value is probably somewhere in between. So take a Banksy and put it all alone in a sale of around 400 lots and it will sell well. Therefore taking an older print, of which many are long gone, £10K looks reasonable, but steep, however there's a growing market of contemporary art buyers who want in and want quality iconic images that made banksy.
Whoever owns this should get it put into a contemporary sale and cross their fingers, they may just be pleasently surprised.

Buyers want it cheap, gallery's/owners want it expensive the truth is somewhere in between, with those with no axe to grind.

If so he may have a small point. From what I have read on this forum in the past, James and his company have done alright out of here, publicity wise. And not just his company. But good luck to him.

Don't know what the gripe is about, if you don't like the price don't buy it.

If people want auction prices, they should sell via an auction. The difference between that and touting art via emails should be obvious.

No, Nothing to do with any gallery or artist.....have seen that others including myself have occasionally posted stuff that is available - especially some of the more iconic stuff and so thought i'd share. Apologies if sharing info openly on an open forum offends, I hope the most have appreciated it esp. those that have bagged a print from the drops that I have posted......

This is way out of my price range but I always find it interesting when pieces like this come up for sale. I really appreciate it when members post stuff like this be they gallery or not.

For my money, screw Kate, screw Rude Copper, even screw Radar Rat - I don't care if the red really is hand sprayed, definitely screw Nola (even with some rainbow colored rain drops.) CYW? A bad joke compared to this print. This .... THIS is the image that defines Banksy. It's THEE print to own. Compared to what some of B's other prints sold for at auction just this week, 10k would be a steal for this.

sorry to pull this even farther off track.. But is there kind of an accepted price gap for signed vs unsigned?
Ie . If 10k. Gbp is a good deal for signed .. Where should unsigned be now?

The gap between signed and unsigned isn't the same on all of his prints. You should get an unsigned LITA for £1700-£2000 imo.

depends on the print Dave for a while it was generally 3-4 times, but seems to range from 2-5. Age of print, edition size, condition, COA, history ( framed etc) all have impact on prices.

LIITA is an iconic Banksy image along with Laugh Now, Barcode and a number of the early images. It is hard to find one in good condition, I searched a long time for my unsigned, it would be high on my list of prints I'd like to upgrade to signed if I could find one at the right price and in great condition

if anyone decides to upgrade, I will take their unsigned!

it is outside the normal run so it is not part of that edition. is it then called a unique ? AP? un sanctioned? it seems like this should be a problem.. the edition should be the total number in circulation so if they can pop up outside the edition that is not really a very good thing in my eyes.

I think you guys are missing the point the work is sold with a unique doodle and PC coa does that not mean its unique? When Hirst doodles on a print it's always sold as unique!!! It's outside of the edition because it's unique and a unique print is not editioned! The pest control cert means there are no issues so I think you are way wrong mate

It's outside of the edition because it's unique and a unique print is not editioned! The pest control cert means there are no issues so I think you are way wrong mate Exactly, not sure what the issue is here. The main point is the fact that this comes with PC COA, therefore it is a recognised and authenticated Banksy signed LIITA. I can't remember off hand, but I think the Opus mail also stated this was originally a gift print to someone, they obviously obtained the PC COA and have it to pass on. The fact it's outside the edition and a unique signed gift print may appeal to some, may not to others...But the fact remains this is not back door if it comes authenticated from Pest Control.
