I’d say around £28-30k depending on condition is fair on a private sale.

GLWTS

Way off....

Why do people value public and private sales differently?

Ive always figured buyer and seller split the auction fee somewhere in the middle and that's how you end up at a value. I have no idea why one way should sell a bunch more or less than the other. If that's the case a whole profession would be made in moving prints back and forth

Fees are not split down the middle, the buyer pays the buyers premium and the seller pays a separate selling fee. People pay a premium to buy at auction, especially when your talking about buying high valued items. I know I would rather buy from an auction house over dropping the amount some spend with a random person online.

Looking to sell my U/S Toxic Mary. Is in excellent condition and framed to museum standards. Comes with COA/PC. Now, before people start badgering on about Christies, I'm not in any rush to sell (can easily wait 2 more years). This isn't a make or break it for me. 

That all said, I'm open to sensible / serious offers.

Surely there's nothing better to spend 30k on than this beautiful, uplifting image that will add so much pleasure and happiness to your life? You can show it off to your wife. Parade it in front of your children.

You'd have to have been poisoned as a baby.

This image represents a slight at organised religion. It is not pro filicide.

What does that have to do with the price of fish?

This is my all time favorite Banksy print!

Remember being completely blown away when I saw the original at the Mudec here in Milan.

I’m no Banksy expert but I feel it’s among the less appreciated prints considering the prices it goes for (compared to other prints of similar edition size).

Maybe the image is a bit too much for some people..

It means that some of us can see the funny side.

[stuckeyc]

How many times have you listed this fishing for offers then not sell it? Waste of time for everybody

If someone buys this for 30K then they’ve got a relative bargain compared with the person who paid 90K at Sotheby’s.

You were asking £3K for a Welcome Mat last year. This is worth at least ten times one of those in my opinion.

Haha it is, how do you think dealers, runners and secondary galleries earn a living? Art is one of the most imperfect and opaque markets around, fortunes are made and lost doing this dance.

Upset much? How many times have I triggered you...

[travispete1]

Given Banksy’s demand never pay seller fees at auction. They should be waiving them. I sold my piece privately through a broker for no fees cash upfront they picked it up etc... price was very good too. GL but I was very sad to see it go after 15 years

They're both relative idiots. Just one marginally more than the other.

No idea what the welcome mat has to do with this. But you're right, this print seems to be "worth" 10 times more to some people.

Well, I hope he gets a good price. It'll make him really happy.

One just hammered at £32k & sothebys.

Probably £28/9k after fees to seller

Adversely someone just bought one for £42.3k.

Maybe the seller thought they would get more and are not happy, who knows.  What I do know is someone was prepared to pay £42.5k. 

You never know maybe someone else is prepared to pay that.

The games we play ....

Think $50k is about spot on , somewhere in between what seller and buyer gets.

I'm considering selling my Banksy Unsigned Toxic Mary.
I purchased this many moons ago from a respected forum member and from memory it was framed by himself.

I've searched on the Banksy Value site for a price estimate and it's showing an average of £66k which I believe was a result of a freak auction purchase.
So I would like to recieve sensible offers around the £40k mark. Would prefer a UK sale .

Thanks.

Can someone please advise me on how to upload pics, as the Photo bucket link I used to use doesn't seem to work.

Thankyou.

Not that it matters, but that petrol bomb looks fake

When did West Country Prince start numbering his prints on the front?

[bigp]

Just to put it out there that I'm not really interested in a trade. 👍

[bigp]

After a weekend of mainly trade offers (thanks for them).
I have decided to reduce the offer price to £35k.
If I have no offers I will commit to an auction.

Thankyou👍

[bigp]

This is still available as I haven't committed to any auction houses yet, so if there is any interest please get in touch.
I will also consider accepting Bitcoin as part or all of the payment.

Thanks
