Invader Scream Print, by alittle on Jan 12, 2014 0:35:15 GMT 1, Link? I stated the price I was offered one for. Not sure how that is "way off" as it actually occurred in the time period stated.

Invader Scream Print, by maddoghoek100 on Jan 12, 2014 1:11:52 GMT 1, I cant seem to find that thread either, but given Hypnosis is sitting on ebay unsold at 1250 GBP im thinking you are pretty far off the mark at 2k GBP. As there are literately zero of the Scream on the market at any of the usual places or galleries i suppose it is tough to say, but Hypnosis is a pretty good comp and 2k buys an awful lot from a lot of other comparable artists.
Think the pricing suggestions here are way way off, was an AP on here some months ago and it went for lots more than prices mentioned. A regular edition was on here for 2000£ and it sold so if you find one under 2000£ your lucky and that is if you can find one that someone wants to sell, have been looking for one now for months and still no Luck.

Invader Scream Print, by madeinnorway on Jan 12, 2014 1:19:39 GMT 1, Think the treads has been deleted by sellers, hypnosis is way cheaper to buy than the scream piece. I have searched all galleries for a while now and there are non for sale. But i can be wrong, offred a framed DALeast andrenalin-s and think 500£ in cash in trade for one, had no reply except bids for the Daleast.

Invader Scream Print, by randomname on Jan 12, 2014 1:20:56 GMT 1, I may be wrong and would love to be corrected but in my eyes APs are, if anything, somewhat less valuable than a print numbered within the logged edition. By default I usually tend towards thinking the APs are somehow 'unfinished' or at the very least not the 'final' product. Now I'm aware some artists will use the AP route as an opportunity to hand-finish a couple individual prints, making them 'unique' from the numbered edition but usually, if I don't see that type of thing mentioned, then I default to the prior thinking. The artist usually pulls the best prints out as APs after they're printed. So in theory, they should be the best quality prints from the run.

Invader Scream Print, by maddoghoek100 on Jan 12, 2014 1:40:59 GMT 1, im thinking that is likely not the case for anything with a sizable run, and almost certainly not for an artist that does not do their own printing. In principle all giclees should be identical or they are misprints. I tend to think of most people outsourcing their screen printing to a limited number of specialists these rather than burning screens and printing in house.
Certainly some who do their own screens and maybe they keep the best as APs,but i dont think i can come up with a name of a currently working artis who does it that way. Faile comes to mind as doing a lot of their printing in house and they likely have some true APs where they tried something interesting or different and decided against doing for the larger run due to time or cost issues, but i think that is rare rather than the norm
Who were you thinking of where that is the common practice? I would think if they are selling imperfect prints as part of the regular edition (i.e. registration errors, or ink bleeds) we would be groaning about them as having crappy print quality

With modern printing, all giclees should be identical. On screen prints, you sometimes have minor variations or flaws that get through.

Invader Scream Print, by maddoghoek100 on Jan 12, 2014 6:52:41 GMT 1, I suppose i am being a bit old school on this, and certainly the modern meaning of all of these terms is almost meaningless. If you by direct from the artist and he does something extra too it i am willing to pay more, if it is exactly the same then it is worth exactly the same and more importantly the run is equal to numbered prints + aps + pps + hcs and gallery samples. Most APs these days are just part of the run given to the artist to sell direct and keep the proceeds. they are part of their total compensation package and are in no way proofs
In an old school sense my thinking is an Artist proof is a proof received by the artist from the printer used to approve the run or created by the artist to decide on the content of the final run if the artist does their own printing. I think in most cases these were never destroyed unless they were deemed by the artist to be in some way substandard. In a lot of cases they were better but to expensive, time consuming, prone to errors or required cleaning screens to frequently. So if there are variants requested or designed by the artist those would all be AP.
Printers proofs i think of as a true ephemera and almost always in some way imperfect. In screen printing each layer and color mix will be test printed to create a proof. I generally think of these as very imperfect but often beautiful at showing the printing process. I really like them and take every opportunity to pick them up. Usually they are marketed as test prints, but they are really printers proofs. In giclee printing if you are testing for color saturation and testing paper stock there are real printers proofs, but most of them just look like substandard prints with too much bleed or substandard ink saturation due to coatings on the stock. Super common when doing metallic prints or other specialized gloss prints. Usually these are destroyed
But back on topic. The invader is still worth what you are willing to pay and if you want one good luck finding one because a lot of people would love to have it. Whatever you pay for it, it is safe to say it will be top dollar, there are no deals on this particular print. IF you by chance own one and your goal was to decide what to price it at i would start high and be prepared to come down if need be. Let buyers come to you because there are plenty of interested people.

Invader Scream Print, by iamzero on Jan 12, 2014 8:57:09 GMT 1, I was offered $2k for mine about 12 months ago through EB if that helps then recently was only offered straight swops for the latest Stik print? So in that there's quite a variation. And mine is part of the edition.

Invader Scream Print, by Bag of Spanners on Jan 12, 2014 11:54:37 GMT 1, I know of one from the normal run that sold privately for £1,750 at the end of November, so I would suggest £2,000 is about market price now. An AP may cost a couple of hundred pounds more but is identical to the main run.

Invader Scream Print, by enus on Jan 12, 2014 17:07:00 GMT 1, I have been looking for both Scram and Hypnosis for a couple of months and have been in contact with some few guys. A post here asking for Hypnosis gave noe respond. I've been lucky and got one threw other sources. My impression though is that these prints has gone up quite a lot the last few months - especially Scream. I've not been able to find any as low - or close to - as some of the suggestions here, but would jump on immediately if it happened.

Invader Scream Print, by rowan on Jan 12, 2014 17:38:07 GMT 1, I bought one for my brother when they 1st went on sale.
He has never expressed a desire to sell it but then again I don't think he knows that these could go for around £2k.
It's a cracking print and the 1st print my brother owned.
Good luck with your hunt!

Invader Scream Print, by .dappy on Jan 12, 2014 18:28:04 GMT 1, ... so how much is a SIGNED albino invader worth?
I bet there are not that many left from 2005 when they were first produced and who the hell was invader??? Quite a few prob went on walls with tacs, sellotape, nails, blu-tac etc etc. never mind thrown away as tastes moved on. (i know supply and demand determines price and it would seem that 'scream' is in demand at the mo )

Invader Scream Print, by miamivice on Jan 12, 2014 19:22:41 GMT 1, Thanks for the input guys. This is what I was getting at earlier. We're ranging from £600 to £2,000+ here. It is a hard one to price as those who really want it REALLY want it (me included). Therefore, regardless of valuation I think we're likely to see very few on the market going forward. I had the chance to get my hands on one for £1,500 in December but couldn't decide whether I was being taken for a ride. Seems like it may have been a fairly honest price after all.

Invader Scream Print, by iamzero on Jan 12, 2014 19:27:46 GMT 1, Could it be that Scream is a departure of style from invader and it's taken a while for people to warm to and once in peoples collections... That's where they stay? I remember really being in two minds on this but once home fell for it big time, the subtle ness is the key with this one I reckon.

Invader Scream Print, by maddoghoek100 on Jan 12, 2014 19:30:12 GMT 1, im not sure what can be learned from unsolicited and unaccepted offers and private unpublished sales that may be real or an attempt to manipulate market perception. If you have a price in mind put a firm offer out there here or on Expressobeans and let sellers come to you.
On the pure question of valuing a thinly traded property it seems a lot more interesting to look at the market as a whole, identify comps , and find completed transactions. Lots of anecdotes and one off data points, but we dont have a lot of actual data, so we are guessing/wagering. It says more about our individual personal preference for art than it does about the art itself. Until we see a few well publicized auctions we have no idea. It is a fact that Hypnosis can be had right now today for 1250 GBP and no one is willing to pay that.
Invader is great, my "ohh alright" is not for sale at any price but 2k buys a lot of art. There are some really nice originals and HPMs for that kind of money. If you really want to be long invader would you rather have an experimental woodblock print or or something more directly connected to his core style like the 6 cubes sitting unsold on ebay for 1500? just one opinion, i think these are cool but they seem a bit like a Warhol shoe watercolor. You can tell everyone you own a Warhol but you will always wish it was a soup can

Invader Scream Print, by maddoghoek100 on Jan 12, 2014 21:26:07 GMT 1, That is a bit cynical, but we aren't talking about national treasures here we are talking about numbered editions that are commodities and were produced recently by an artist who is still living and producing work, so i suppose my point more properly stated was that there are many pieces where the sentimental attachments or market expectations of the owner far outstrip the market price, and that is why a single piece of anecdotal evidence on a single person rejecting a given offer is not all that useful.
I have some pieces that were gifted to me by the artist, it would be tacky to sell them. it would burn a bridge if it ever became known that i sold them. I have rejected unsolicited offers on them, I suppose if i was offered never work again money i would not think twice. They would be gone as soon as the check cleared.
There are still other invaders on the market that i would prefer for the price points being thrown out. I think those other invaders have better long term potential. Just one opinion. I would rather be in a working living artist at original cost and reserve paying large aftermarket for deceased artists or pieces with a bot more age on them. It seems likely that 2 or 3 invaders released in the next 12 months. Invader could decide woodcuts are the new hotness tomorrow, put out 3 new editions imitating Picasso, Dali, and Rembrandt and all of the sudden these become a lot less unique

Invader Scream Print, by iamzero on Jan 13, 2014 8:57:33 GMT 1, Go on then, it's yours for £20 trillion. What PayPal would fees be on that?
Perhaps this image is one for the completists out there, if it's the only one not in your Invader collection and the edition number is so low then maybe collectors are paying through a lot more than they normally would. But that again pushes up prices as all the true fans and collectors gain one and have no plans in splitting the collection in which turn makes the piece even more rare?
The point about there being other pieces of art you can buy for better value will always be the case no matter what you buy surely and one of the reason I don't own a Nola, Grannies, CYW or Trollies? There may be other Invader images that define his still much better but why is it that some images from artists just hit the market with greater success than others? Eelus with Not Everything..., Charming Bakers Half Pint, Christian Brett with Love Bold... Or Eines shutter font?
Interesting thread though and very hard to put a value on a piece that is rarely seen for sale,because the chances are if a piece sells for a silly price then others that had no intention of selling throw theirs out there and flood the market with the risk of devaluing the piece.
Good this collecting lark eh.

Good short term but long term bouncy balls will be a better investment than waffles :-)
