I also have to say that Tajan was really "professional" (Johnny and Diego) , it has been a pleasure to deal with them, let's see how it will continue

You're right! Great thank to Johnny! Great person!

I Well curated. The variety is great, and as always in France old school graff get's a good showing in the catalogue. .

No surprise the popular pieces have low estimates and the less likely to fly are the opposite.

I will be in Paris and am thinking of making it over on that evening to see the action and put in a few bids.

Anyone else planning to make it over ?

I've heard of a free apero, so I will fly from Bali to attend the Auction  
Let me know if you make it Matt
Cheers

Dear Dmhurrell,

If you are interested by some pieces, you can bid online, by phone or you can do an absentee bid on TAJAN website. For the shipping, we're working with some good company and we can advice you.

Please let me know if you need any further informations.

Best,

How is that any different from other Auctions ?

[RolexDave]

... Maybe because they don't have the reach like Sothebys or Christies.... But there are some nice items to be had, all the same....

Others are 10-15%, 25% is kind of high? 

Other buyers' thoughts?

I never paid 10-15% as a Buyer (wish I had though) but I know nothing ;-)

Would say buyer premium at 25 is classic ? Some pieces have an added 5-6 percent depending on where they are located, like the Hrin Reaper at Tajan

Most places have saluted the 25% threshold now even the primary houses which were the last to do so in the past couple years.  Though to be fair, it quickly staircases down as prices increase.  A lot of the lower tier houses have been 25% for much longer.

JR did very well in this auction, the French love him.

Banksy not that well, in that there were no crazy prices, but prints were low end except 1 and all framed

The Jonone massive piece was my favourite, but 17k GBP with premium was a tad bit high !

[Matt]

The invader home series also went for quite a bit. 2000 euros before premium is nuts even for a PP of 2

[brookvale]

Any of the nick Walker prints sell?

I think that was possibly on the low side. I assume €2k for one piece not the set otherwise it was incredibly low, but I sold a Home Mars main edition for £1.2K (pounds) a year or 2 back... but also appreciate that the exchange rate has had a bit of a swing since
