Banksy Grappling Hook, by tab1 on Mar 11, 2021 18:48:34 GMT 1, 50k over asking price ! Need buyers like this without going to an auction! The asking price was actually offers over £350k
I know would of expected 5-15k over asking not 50k especially when only reference is years old for guide price

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Charlie Bronson on Mar 11, 2021 18:55:04 GMT 1, Dare I ask, how did your brother in law get the piece? These were never truly a lottery for just anyone, correct? Is he part of the inner circle, the illumabanksy? Does he wear clothing that have triangles and eyes on them? Does he go to monthly meetings in undisclosed locations?

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Deleted on Mar 11, 2021 19:24:32 GMT 1, Dear Dickhead,
Thank you for your interest in Banksy’s Grappling Hook and for taking the time and effort to visit the hotel.
The list of buyers for this item is extremely oversubscribed and as the edition is only 25 we have decided to offer the hooks for sale through a lottery system.
We will be in touch soon to confirm if you are one of the lucky purchasers or not but please note that these items are still in production and as yet we don’t have a final sales price or date for delivery.
Finally, we wish to make you aware that we will not be issuing COA’s for these items until 1 year after the date your payment is received. Please do let us know if you no longer wish to enter the lottery as a result of this. Kind Regards
WOH

I think the forum archive has all the info when/how.

Apparently one sold on here a few weeks ago for over £400k to a gallery. Make of that what you will...

Banksy Grappling Hook, by casual on Mar 21, 2021 14:23:31 GMT 1, As above one went on here earlier this month, it sold very quickly at that price too.
It’s astronomical money but when you consider the edition size & subject I think it was relatively cheap at £400k. As you say they don’t come up often...

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Jeezuz Jones Snr on Oct 16, 2021 11:53:11 GMT 1, Wow these have gone up in price 😲 how many are there?. I remember a while back a good member on here had the chance to buy. Understandably he was having second thoughts due to how much it cost at the time, but he did eventually buy. Glad he did and hope he held on to it 👍

Banksy Grappling Hook, by bgdp on Oct 16, 2021 12:22:36 GMT 1, Will be interesting to see if it sells. So few around and none at Auction for so long. My thought is even the box must push this to those levels or beyond!

There’s a good example somewhere here with a member who’s got the box and grappling hook displayed. I’ve also seen it on Instagram. I’ll try and find it and link it here.
In the meantime though, here’s how it was displayed at Ely Cathedral (photos taken from a previous post by FR).

Haha. Here’s the photo I was looking for. This is a little less space devouring.

The box is likely easy enough to collapse back to flat and then frame.

Those pics of the boxes show a load of heavy-duty staples holding them together at the corners. Also, my guess is the cardboard is quite thick (1+ cm). So the boxes wouldn't collapse to flat so easily, and would require one to irreparably damage the viewing side of the box.

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Gunny on Jan 10, 2022 12:40:52 GMT 1, I have thought long and hard as to whether to sell it, but feel the time is right.
Most Banksy collectors will know what it looks like but If you are seriously interested then please feel free to PM me your email address for photos.
Full specifications of the Grappling Hook by Banksy..........
The sculpture is made of acrylic and shellac on wood, painted polyurethane, aluminium, steel and around 4 meters of thick rope. It was produced in 2017 and is signed in black felt-tip pen and numbered from the edition of 26 on the reverse.
The sculpture comes contained in the original cardboard box with four unique stencils (as issued) - VERY SPECIAL INDEED!
Size of the sculpture: 60cm by 47.6 by 35 cm (23⅝ by 18¾ by 13¾in)
I am the original owner with Pest Control Certificate.
These don't come up very often, if ever, so hard to price as there is no recent sale history. Therefore, if anyone has any idea of the current price of any please let me know.
Thanks!

Wonderful piece to own. Might not one of the big auction houses be the best way to go with this?

Banksy Grappling Hook, by sandworm on Jan 10, 2022 12:51:36 GMT 1, Two auction results for these:
Bonhams (2019): £83,306 Sothebys (2019): £93,750
Not sure how much the market has moved since then but I'd expect you'd be looking for offers in the region of £100k?

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Gunny on Jan 10, 2022 12:56:06 GMT 1, Thanks for that - i am after recent sales or prices. The Sothebys one was Sep 2019 and the other one a year before. These never come up - Banksy prices have moved a lot since those days - you could pick up a Choose Your Weapon for £20k (now £100k plus) then....... Coloured one for around £30 - £40k (now £150-£200k). Just to give you an idea of how prices have moved since then.....

Seems fair and logical to me, to be honest I'm priced out of this market anyway so shouldn't stick my nose in where it doesn't belong just always find it helpful to understand a sellers anticipated / desired price point.

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Arty Farty 15 on Jan 10, 2022 13:41:56 GMT 1, Incredible piece. If a signed “Christ with shopping bags” print fetches north of £170k then this has to be worth far more. Don’t undersell it…
Good luck and thanks for putting it to the forum first.
