Glasgow.., by dotdot on Feb 15, 2015 0:19:06 GMT 1, can you just go visit this place or is it all closed off?
It's closed off , but from what I gather it's accessible. As for the asbestos I also gather that is a red herring as they didn't use asbestos anymore when it was built. Look it up on google maps. , you'll see how overgrown it has become , if you then have a look on flickr ( there's a couple of groups dedicated to the site) you'll see what it's current status is. As I said earlier it's the stuff of heeby geebies ( for some) , at this time of year ( lack of decent light ) .. I'm perhaps overstating it as I've been south for a wee whiley. So I'd reckon a spring / summer visit would be cool if you ... Felt slightly adventurous.
Check out flickr , some folks have gone to town ...

When Did You Start Collecting and What Was Your First Piece, by dotdot on Feb 13, 2015 18:18:30 GMT 1, It was a long time ago - not that long but long enough ago for me to think.. ffs that was ages ago.
first work... a colourful piece by romero britto - met him in mia , when i used to work over there. used to buy polish works in ed during the festival... then stumbled upon art rep in b right on on day - came back with a hockney (lith) after laughing at prices of banksy works.
Ended up buying one later that year at SG, hey ho since then it's been a "slog". (if you know ; think foetus)
infamously bumped into the guy who had a flying cardboard copper on the bay (the amount of times I've been asked about that..) .. he turned out to be legit - which was useful as i bought a ln from him on spec.
...I don't queue anymore (neate and brizzle were enough for me....3/4 hours!!).. still i do manage the occasional sortie into town... m1c and Dr are next.. if i'm lucky.

STOLEN BANKSY'S, by dotdot on Feb 13, 2015 17:58:36 GMT 1, Back in the early days of ebay - i was "scammed" by a seller who's account had been hacked. off the money went into the void / never to return , impacted my business for a year. Took paypal to the uk financial ombudsman - had them hauled over the coals - found in my favour - never got a bean out of them. They have since , as they all do, changed their ways/processes.
if i had stopped right there - i would have a smaller collection by now - but i'd probably also be either an alky or a junkie so hey - collecting at times is good for the soul.
every cloud , as we used to say up in ecosse - contains rain , the question is .. who is going to get p1ssed on

STOLEN BANKSY'S, by dotdot on Feb 13, 2015 16:52:56 GMT 1, A good friend of mine's father used to run an antique shop. He was stung pretty badly - so badly he gave it all up and closed the business - selling bit of it off to old friends. The folks who stung him were never caught - it was large sum and still it's a touchy subject.
hope this one works out - it's bad for everyone involved including.. the forum/eb imo. B/J/MA - i hope everyone in the story is tracked down and the people/person responsible held to account.

Antony Micallef | Self | Lazarides Rathbone, by dotdot on Feb 10, 2015 18:04:22 GMT 1, I first walked into Eyestorm Gallery nearly 10 years ago and immediately connected and loved Micallef's work, amazing talent for sure. For me though his work has been getting darker and darker and I'm getting lost in his transition/natural progression. I'm Interested to know if people are preferring this new body of work compared to, say HFUNG or Shibuya crossing etc. What would you go for? Original HFUNG etc. or one of these new studies? I will certainly go and see these for sure though. Discuss. He moves on a different plain And so he doesn't stand still
indeed he does. he doesn't look down or up. forward or back - he is... quite an interesting guy...relativey speaking.
now if only they'd release parasite and be done with it...

Selling prints , by dotdot on Feb 9, 2015 13:21:04 GMT 1, Banksy Donut ( Choc ) and Dolk Circus - both signed. Many thanks Dave
doh nut - you'll need coa doh lk - i don't think there are coa's for dolk's work - a receipt or something...
reckon here is a good place to start - ebay is fine if you've been there before, ie you know the pros and cons.. auction house... is another option as as some galleries who have probably sent you pm's by now... (and not told you who they actually are... )
so be weary and careful and you should be ok...

Banksy printers proofs., by dotdot on Feb 9, 2015 11:16:57 GMT 1, genuine - yet un authenticated rare because they are genuine but not authenticated. i was unaware that the print runs contain perhaps 2x the orig run - which could be 'not part of the print run - but yet kept'.
genuine in what respect ?
how can you prove they are genuine ?
are they for sale ? how can you put a price on something which is genuine but may not actually have a market due to the nature as you described , they are not authenticated ?
still... it is monday - and there is a show on in town with very little on the walls.
situationist.. in someways.
this thread .. could well be existencialist.. in that "they" may exist but yet "they" don't .. because they're not authentic.
same could be said for some 'users' here.. but that's not a thread .. that's a ... n other story

Adam neate in Singapore, by dotdot on Feb 5, 2015 13:03:22 GMT 1, thanks for that - he's changed a bit... he's quite funny on instagram... going at times from the sublime to the ridiculous... which goes to show he tries not to take himself too seriously.
his jim morrision look is cool.. as well... beats looking like an arty type.
breaking on through...

Banksy Golf Sale Print, by dotdot on Jan 29, 2015 17:58:28 GMT 1, reckon it's a fairly cool price... otherwise - if you're in need put it on the bay , whilst there's a general okness here - of late it's gone kind of sour - perhaps the time of year , bills bills etc. (or an in fux or rif rahf , who knows/cares..)
as ever it's the sellers choice - many here would give a lot for one .. perhaps not a kidney though.
