Cool t3c!

Haven't they recently updated their website?

Hmmmm, I wonder... I was just thinking, this was discussed on a thread here a while ago...

Old BLK MRKT Gallery website:  www.blkmrktgallery.com/store/?id=124 and is still up for sale at $700 *edit: checked again, still available.

Now it shows up for $250?? Maybe they had a rethink about the price.

This is what the gallery had to say in the old thread. Either way better 250 than 700, unless someone made an error with relisting work.

Hi, after a recent flat file count we thought it would be fun to release some of our special prints for collectors out there that might like them. We are only planning on letting go of a few at this time. Most of our APs are individually numbered, signed by the artist and all come with a COA listing the print, total# of APs, and signed by the producer (BLK/MRKT Editions) representative. The artist, of course, also has a small cache for family/friends or commerce.

These APs are not a special/altered version of the original, but an extended 10-15% above and beyond the OG as is standard for numbered print editions. If you're interested, these are gorgeous screen prints recreated from the original paintings and we are very proud of them.

Cheers,
BMG

Going on what was said above by the gallery, those that want one should maybe contact the gallery, there's a chance there are more from how I read what they wrote above??  

[mawge]

What a steal!
congrats!

I wonder how many they had because I bought one yesterday when they launched the new site... It wouldn't surprise me they over sold by a lot.

Hoping nobody gets a refund but if they do issue refunds I hope they go in the order they were purchased.

[DameHoracia]

It's possible they have quite a number of these 'AP's'.  I bought one for $700 in August, then changed my mind - I was really confused to how many had been reproduced and rather than wince when thinking about the amount, I cancelled it (wasn't a fav. image anyway).

To my knowledge an AP is a test print, not something that is run off in high numbers for no reason and then called rare - I'm still confused at what happened in this instance and the gallery already explained themselves in the last thread, but I bet you'll all be ok.  I just thought someone might have relisted it incorrectly for that price.

It's still a good price for the print though.  I am just delighted I didn't pay $700 in August for it as i would have wanted the difference back if it is now going for 250. 

[t3c]

Got a confirmation email so i seriously hope i don't get jipped..got MFM already on the case for this!

[t3c]

I believe the original 100 run edition clocked in at $175 when it came out in 2009. How times have changed

Think the same, an AP edition of 100, man that's odd !!! But as you said, already explained in last thread.

[maxf]

It looks like these were an error and we are getting refunded, or a 20% discount from the $700 they should have been.

Shame.

[t3c]

So it would seem, it's a bit rich though considering these were available in an edition of 100 for $175 originally

[maxf]

That's life unfortunately. $250 was a stonking deal, $560 isn't bad either really but I opted for a refund as it was a totally unplanned purchase in an already very expensive month!

[whl10]

wow great deal, wish i had seen this! congrats. i have one of his other prints through these guys (trapped by language) and i am always stunned that it is a screen print as it looks very much like a gilicee (sorry about the spelling) i have of his from the outsiders (tales of blood and slaughter - currently my favorite print in collection, hangs over the computer from which i type)

it wasn't a great deal. They had the wrong price listed on their site and refunded everyone who bought at $250 or if you still wanted it you had to send them an additional $300+

That's very disappointing!! Sorry to hear that guys!!!

Not only that, it took them a long time to let you all know about it.

They still haven't replied to their e-mails either.

My opinion on BLK-MRKT has just gone down even further ......

Poor customer service!!

[Deleted]

Very confusing ! But what do you expect from someone called BKL-MKRT, sorry KBL-KRTM, no sorry KLB-TRK. Damn !! Someone called BLK-MRTK.

oh i guess i did not read the rest of the thread closely enough mostly just the original post.

Jeez that's a bummer
