I’d stick to selling backdoor Invaders in the future. 

[mission]

Here we go with the idiot brigade again .. was only a matter of time ..
I suggest you speak with the buyers of the other artworks first .

Ps the Invaders are now being dealt with in the courts .. I will update when I can legally

[Horatio Nelson]

I was vaguely interested in IFTL notwithstanding the Laugh Now photo error, but then I see a mention of matters being dealt with in the courts…

Maybe some members can chime in and let us all know what the buying experiences have been so far as mission has offered and sold a few that I can see. Always give the benefit of the doubt first. Ask for references from recent buyers.

[brookvale]

That’s a big boo boo

[kai22]

Prices did seem too good to be true…

[LJCal]

Bought probably a dozen pieces from Mission and sold a couple, including a few high value buys/ sales. Top seller and safe as houses.

[Wanchope]

There you go, a decent actual reference

[singerstu]

I have also dealt with Mission several times without any issues.

[High Contrast]

The biggest deals I have done have in fact been with Mission.

Bought / sold to many many times

[Tommy Tucker]

I’ve done buying and selling with mission. Very smooth, no problems.

[G$]

The barrage of appologies is forthcoming. Please begin holding your breath now , mission

[pottsy11]

Bought and sold high price pieces to mission , very professional and trustworthy . Packing was exceptional too . Highly recommend .

[sean1397]

Theres no need for an apology. Glad this guy seems to be legit but when someone is selling 5-6 figure art and puts of a photo of a signed version when selling an unsigned one it's reasonable for people to say that's a red flag. Glad to hear this member is legit but no one was wrong to  question this post given the wrong image was posted.

Did the OP ever attempt to rectify or explain the "mistake"? If now, why?

I'd hazard a guess that OP has two copies, one signed and the other U/S, and simply linked the wrong picture. Very easily done. 

I don't think they need to justify themselves here, especially as they have been vouched for, several times over, by legit and old-school trusted forum collectors.

The sheet fractionally shaved at the lower left edge, otherwise the full sheet, in good condition, with an undulation along the lower sheet edge, a diagonal scuff in the black ink below the leopard's head, the red inkstamp slightly bled, framed. (A pale, slightly uneven window of minor light-staining, as is common with this subject and paper).

I went yesterday, it’s not great. Looks like the mount covers the top of the print but not the bottom. The sig is tiny which is weird.

Personally  I’d want to see it out of the frame before buying but I doubt that would be possible.

Had to laugh at the chocolate donut with the parcel tape down one side of the print! Dodgy previous frame job I guess.

All of the prints were framed poorly imo, definitely a couple of art republic ones in there too.

the warhols upstairs were spectacular and well worth the visit.
