Banksy Artwork, VALUATION, by trapnel1 on May 31, 2015 16:44:38 GMT 1, Roughly around 10k to spend maybe more depending on the piece. USD or pounds sterling?
If you look through this thread you will get an idea of likely prices.......
Should be aiming for a signed print at 10K, but some will be out of reach.

Kenny Schachter On How Art Dealing Has Become......., by trapnel1 on May 27, 2015 21:27:31 GMT 1, Entertaining read. Some would say the art market is essentially the same at all levels......
Think I'll just stick to buying what I like while wall space remains!

Interesting Art on Instagram, by trapnel1 on May 27, 2015 19:39:27 GMT 1, Thank you! Definitely wouldn't have understood all of those. (And I have to admit I've never even heard of Claude Francois.....).

Interesting Art on Instagram, by trapnel1 on May 27, 2015 12:01:36 GMT 1, the red spot is a "quirky" symbol. It uses the icon and color facebook, and updates in red (as a "delete") its representative symbol of the person: for example, the BMW of Lady Di. But okay, I agree, this is just anecdotal. I found it funny, as a game for children. Sometimes it's good, it's better than these large frescoes pompous of artists copycats who want to put eyeful. I won't say names. The red symbol for Diana is a Mercedes, and presumably a reference to the car she was in when she died....
Do the others also have some significance for the people?

FS:DOLK CHIEF+ BALACLAVA , by trapnel1 on May 23, 2015 19:10:15 GMT 1, I've been following this thread, and tend to agree it would be better locked since it seems unlikely to get any more positive. Problems are always best sorted out by PM, and PMs shouldn't be posted.
I think that guardians are trying to do their best here to keep it positive, and hopefully most members realise that. None of us is perfect and everyone makes mistakes sometimes - so please PM with any constructive comments!
And with that I am going to try to lock this thread......

Cut Print vs. Expensive Frame, by trapnel1 on May 22, 2015 13:32:05 GMT 1, Now to my question. Is there a loss of value by cutting a print (if the original image is not altered by it)? I would say yes - that there is considerable loss of value through cutting the margins on a print.
However - that is only an issue if the print has significant value, and the overwhelming majority of the prints we admire here so avidly (and hopefully like to see on our walls) won't have significant value in 20 or 30 years time......

Feel free to contribute.....

Who is Godspeed?, by trapnel1 on May 21, 2015 7:49:07 GMT 1, PayPal resolved the issue!!! Only downside is the Canadian dollar strengthened since my purchase so I lost a little in the conversion. Anyway, better then nothing. Godspeeds not off the hook yet though. Stay tuned. Glad you got you money back at least! And hopefully there will be more good news to follow.....

Your latest Art Purchase?, by trapnel1 on May 19, 2015 23:18:38 GMT 1, What's a sit/stand desk? Never heard of one before. It sounds like I'm being facetious, but is it just a desk without a chair? The art looks smashing my friend. It's a motorized desk that goes from sitting height to standing height so you can stand and work instead of sitting. I'm slightly type a. You should see my treadmill desk........

Who is Godspeed?, by trapnel1 on May 6, 2015 16:47:46 GMT 1, Now here's an idea. In your new found status as a Forum Guardian, why don't you PM @godspeed and ask him/her to set the record straight as to why he/she has behaved in this way. Already done! He/she hasn't been online for a week or so.......

Who is Godspeed?, by trapnel1 on May 6, 2015 16:38:38 GMT 1, "I think people should be very cautious about suggesting he has been involved in this transaction"
why's that then ? There has been a bad transaction involving Godspeed, possibly more than one, which is outlined above.
Jason Zenga is well known and some of his history is also outlined above. However, there is no clear evidence that they are one and the same. If Godspeed is not Jason Zenga, he or she might well object strongly to this linkage (with good reason!). If anyone has definite evidence that Godspeed is Zenga, then please provide this.
In the meantime, I suggest extreme caution on the part of anyone dealing with Godspeed, and of course to avoid Zenga completely!

Who is Godspeed?, by trapnel1 on May 6, 2015 15:50:32 GMT 1, I was the Guardian who edited the first post. I'm very sympathetic to the poster, but disclosure of personal details or posting of photos with the intention of identifying a Forum Member or their location, without their express consent is not permitted. The name was not Jason Zenga, and unless anyone has clear evidence to the contrary I think people should be very cautious about suggesting he has been involved in this transaction.
