That Invader looks horrible anyway. And who want's a huge concrete wall in there lounge room. How obnoxious! I hate street pieces being removed. I travel relativly often and part of the enjoyment of visiting a new city is viewing street pieces from both well established artist to no namers. The only "street piece" i would ever own is a kaws ad distruption as they would have only lasted a week at best. I love seeing pieces around my home town that have been there for 10+ years witch i loved then and still now. Thats what got me into street art in the first place. They are ultimatly killing there own market by removing them, The more people see them on the street, there more interest people will take and will then end up buying from gallerys down the line. Banksy should plant explosives inside the walls and when there are disrupted they self destruct. haha sorry rant over

Actually Brendan, it's getting closer to this. A street artist friend of mine, Gregos (known in Paris for his plaster faces glued to walls) got angry because there are more people stealing his faces from walls (though they are very affordable on his site to whoever wants to buy an OG). He decided to trap some... We are all looking forward to the surprise when some art thief tries :-) (nothing harmful of course)
