Sorry...I don’t “get” these at all. Maybe I’m missing something. There’s young chap I follow on Instagram who does far “better” watch drawings. You can get a Batman print from him off Etsy for £34 (or request a commission).

10 years ago, I’d have joined in, 5 years ago I’d have started a discussion about art and secondary, 2 years ago I’d have reminded people this is a for sale thread and outlined what this means. now I just make this observation and wonder if this place is destined to continue circling until it disappears up its own arse

What do you mean by what a for-sale thread "means"?


My inference from this (which I'm hoping is false) is that it's being suggested a for-sale thread means, or should mean, only one thing or one set of things:

(i) to you, to me, to the thousands of other members on this public forum; and

(ii) alternative viewpoints are not just different, but patently wrong.

You’re correct your inference would be incorrect, but also I’ve poorly worded it. I merely see little of constructive value or humour in the turn this thread took.

Very pleased to hear that.

Because I myself see every thread relating to art (including, and perhaps especially, sale threads) as an invitation and opportunity for us to exchange views on the strengths and weaknesses of that art.

Such discussions are of greatest value to less-experienced potential buyers.

If any sellers are squeamish or have issues with open commentary on the works they're offloading, then other sale platforms are readily available to them.

Not up for 'cancelling' people per se, but if Madsaki did get cancelled I really wouldn't mind...

FYI:

[Ponyboy Curtis]

well that's not very nice at all.

Down with this sort of thing.

RIP this For Sale thread. You fly with the angels now. No more pain.

I sometimes get lost in my own parody. What is real anymore?

I sometimes wonder how many artists currently at work today, just started the whole thing as a bit of a piss-take, but things then just kinda spiralled out of their control.

I thought the original badly drawn watches (in the style of a 9 year old) were as bad as it could get. Then I saw this.

Who in their right mind is investing in this “art”, this is just trash.

[esfer]

I'm really glad you posted that! Madsaki was in my sights, but I'm not down with racist sh!t at all.

I myself have witnessed racist content from other members of this forum, which was really disheartening and unexpected.

[deffe]

i really like the early works of Madsaki,but the those prints are horrible.
Maybe he is trying to make some money so he will afford a real PP.

[Newar]

He also made brillo boxe's like Arsham .... this custom watch bezel are really ugly you will have more luck on chinese app's ...

[kwatis]

I was looking forward to this drop since hearing about it. A perfect mix of childhood nostalgia and contemporary art.

Needless to say I missed the Madsaki X Mattel Masters of the Universe He-Man and Battle Cat figure; went in seconds. Then attempted to get the Villains print but also struck out.

If anyone hit on either and wants to sell, send me a DM with your location and asking price.

While I am aware of the many that are available on the secondary (StockX, eBay, etc.) I would prefer to deal with someone on here. Additionally a more reasonable price would be ideal too.

Was a shitshow of a bot fest as per 

[Happy Shopper]

I tried too. Had everything on autofill, and account details set up in advance... but still couldn't check out quick enough!

[kwatis]

Happy Shopper & Johnny Sarcasm knew things were gonna go fast, but yeah this release was ridiculous. I also had everything autofill ready and account made in advance. At the moment the collection went live I went for the figure, added it to my cart and was "in line" to check out which made me falsely hopeful. When that failed, I went for the print put was already sold out.

I am on the fence about making a purchase via the secondary before sellers have these in hand. On the flipside, I don't wanna wait and have prices continue to climb to the point of being priced out.
