hey guys .. so this guy i know has a signed "i fought the law" floated in a nice black frame and he has offered to selll it to me for 4.5k... i am a great fan of this image and think i and getting it at a decent price... what do you guys think...

[corblimeylimey]

This one ( 250129635371 ) sold for £4,885 on ebay yesterday, so I guess that's about right.

[foreman]

yeah i saw that .... + i am also in the usa and live within driving distance to pick up ... so i dont have to pay taxes on importing it or pay for the framing which would probably set me back an extra 250-500 . from what ive read on here i hear the print is very large and difficult to frame... also i dont hav to worry about the print being damaged in the post! lots of +'s on this one... definitly gonna have to pick is up!

[carl]

Buy it! This is a great print. undervalued and beautiful. I have an unsigned one. Its a real classic.

[becksaboo]

I have a signed one and its big and beautiful

[smellor]

What it says in the title! looking to swap an i fought the law for the two angel bombers.

Cheers

I'm looking to swap a signed #69 (cheeky!) "I Fought The Law" for a signed "Girl With Red Balloon" as I've just got married and the wife hates it and doesn't want it on the wall. She does however like the Girl print and Happy Choppers. Anyone interested in a swap before I have to sell it on EBay?

[sav200]

you would probably need to include about £5000 to make that a fair swap!

[RBK]

I'm looking to buy an unsigned IFTL if anyone has one to sell for a reasonable price. Please PM me. Cheers!

[Mobu]

Hey dude,

I would try ebay as I have seen several on there at a reasonable price.

Not sure but if you already knew this, sorry! A very nice print and once I had one, but royal mail damaged the print..

Will need custom frame though as it is an awkward size.

All the best.

Mo

[RBK]

I should have bought one a few months ago when they were going for around 515-560.

[Mobu]

true but its a print that never really increased in value for some reason. I love the print personally but cannot afford anything at the moment coz I have a newly acquired mortgage.. that is with you like luggage...

How come the sudden interest in this print may I ask? Do you know something I dont

Mo

[RBK]

I've said for the past year and a half I thought it is an underated print - and the only other one I'd really like to add to my collection. Life will still go on if I don't get it and the money can collect some interest in the art buying fund

[umajets]

I'm fairly sure the last 3 unsigned went on Ebay for 571, 520 (from the USA) and i think about 510.

It's the one print I'd particularly like to get too .. have to wait until funds are available or see if anyone will swap it for my Judgement Day

[JockoLad]

IS this the real deal?

The Robbie Williams bit has put me right off but the rest seems legit - anyone confirm?

Cheers

[manchestermike]

I don't see why not... Robbie Williams is a well known collector of Banksy, D*Face, Jamie Reid etc...

[dave313perry]

Ok so its un-numbered...trimmed although it is signed

maybe i read that wrong but thats how it seemed to me?

[donkeydaddy]

They do seem to offer a route to check provenance which is promising. Robbie's original hangs in his LA mansion, looks like it's in his sports room. There's a DVD which shows him playing darts frighteningly close to a Kissing Coppers canvas and there's an 'I Fought The Law' canvas on the wall in the background.

[jonpud]

Thing is if Robbie did hit it with a dart then then pinholed canvas would probably rise in value, now if it was hung in my house and my daughter threw a dart at it..........well different story!

i think it's un-numbered, un-trimmed and signed dave. bit previous to say it's the only un-numbered signed though, unless he has that in writing from Laz? fair play if so, still less than a signed, numbered edition for me.

[jonpud]

Unusual one this, end of day its another back door print but apparently with solid provenance! So if a backdoor signed version sells for a cautious £1.2k(ish) Whats one with prov worth?

I'm with Lesbian on this, less than a numbered edition.

Off to place a little bid now, hopefully put rest of you off!!

[daniel3886]

The following 'I Fought The Law' signed print has been listed by a fraudster:

cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=004&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=140095184965&rd=1&rd=1

I have contacted the actual owner. His photos of the print were stolen from one of his earlier auction listings. He is getting eBay to remove the fraudulent listing by 'oodjhazeoo'.
