Yes, but a bigger picture would be good!

Love rat is an anagram of Vole Art which is the direction I want to see Banksy move towards. Rats are so 2004. Bring on the Vole Art!

[Winter]

I was thinking exactly the same thing. Art has yet to exploit voles. Little fuckers.

Was thia auction that ended earlier for real or was there something fishy with the bidding?
Ebay ref - 150119965189.
Final bid was £970 with reserve not met!
Is this bidding amount excessive seeing as the other placards lately have only gone for about six'ishes.Cheers.

[dave313perry]

seems dodgy to me mate, especially with the reserve, i bet if you bid 1 penny over you would have reached the reserve

Hi Guys

My boyf is after all 3 placard rats (though one at a time). we've watched a few on ebay and also watched some being withdrawn for various reasons

I was wondering if anyone on the forum is looking to sell any of their placard rats, please can you let me know, thank you ;D

[manchestermike]

I do too... £3k+ each is out of my price range now though

[7eny]

Although we'd love signed ones these are out of our price range, we're happy with unsighned

[7eny]

bump, anyone

[®at]

There is some guy on fleabay selling all 3 together for £2.5k

[7eny]

Thanks for the heads up ®at, it's a little more than I can afford Looking at past prices I think we are going to have to wait for them to come up on ebay with reserves rather than BIN, I'll just have to keep my eyes open

[®at]

2.5 does seem a little steep for all 3... not like they are all the same number or anything to make them a set either.
you could make him an offer I guess?

3 different set of all 3 sold 2-3 months ago for 2K a pop, to buy them individually should still cost about the same ( +/- 2k).

art republic have some in the shop but they didn't have prices on.

[7eny]

we had a look in art republic the other weekend each rat is 1K framed or 800 unframed, still out of our league

[daz205]

money tranfer to uk banks only item in amsterdam ?

[arcam]

Personally I'd never pay by money transfer. You have no come back at all should the item not arrive.

[paulah]

what is the best way to pay - for an expensive print?

I think you can get a refund through paypal if it turns out to be dodgy - is that right?

[Strange Al]

Paulah - Paypal doesn't necessarily entitle you to a full refund. The paypal system offers various levels of cover, depending on how you purchase the item and why you are seeking to recover the payment.

If you're going to use paypal, it's best to use the Paypal Buyer Credit option and pay using your credit card. As well as receiving the protection of Paypal, your credit card provider may give you additional cover. Though some credit card providers offer better protection than others - always best to check with your cc company first.

For more details on paypal protection see: pages.ebay.co.uk/help/tp/paypal-protection.html

Ultimately, spending that sort of money, I'd always be a extra cautious buying through ebay without actually having seen the item you're buying.

You can get a refund up to Forty days after the purchase.

[beejoir1]

Fuck that for a game of laughs!!!

Ask him if you can go pick it up!

For business to consumer transactions you are covered for anything purchased on your credit card above £100 in the European Union.
For consumer to consumer transactions as this one is you are not covered, wehther you pay by credit card or not.

[paulah]

I never really gave it much thought - until I thought about buying a grin reaper on ebay - and it terrifies me to spend thousands on ebay - especially when I haven't seen it....

Hence all my pleas to forum members to sell to me - but I've found members who got in touch have all quoted considerably above ebay rates...!!!

[beejoir1]

If I was spending over 2000 I'd want to see it! and pick it up!
