Banksy Flags Wanted, by dirtypete on Dec 15, 2019 22:12:26 GMT 1, While that has been the fair price I thought one sold at auction for £10k ish recently. While that might’ve been a blip most owners are going to use that to assess value.
Good luck tracking one down, as I love the image.

One sold for £7k with buyers premium (just over £9k inclusive). After auction fees, VAT and insurance the seller would have netted around £5,850; so for a private treaty sale my range should be attractive. It should be said this was the highest ever achieved and one sold a month or two earlier for less than £5k. A fairly well known gallery is offering this for sale at £6.5k, which if I don’t secure one privately at a more competitive price in the next few days I’ll probably go for and get the added security for a bit of a premium.

I wouldn't wait a few days, it will probably be gone. Also any Flags ive ever seen at a gallery has been f8cked.
I know of dealers that are paying more then £5,850 for them post last week's results.

If it is in good condition it won’t hang around for long at the gallery.
Agree with the reply above, I have been offered £5.8 - £6k by dealers for mine.
It is a great image so snap one up when you have the chance!

Your right it is completely ;;;;, inspected today they offered me some money off but it’s pretty much unsalvagable. The hunt goes on, I’ve managed to pick up plenty of other unsigned prints for fair prices but for some reason finding a Flags in fair condition is tough.

There are mint ones out there, but tough to find. Good luck.
If you really like the image and are condition driven might be worth saving up for a Formica.

What’s the estimates on gallery prices and private sales currently? Interesting you had offers of 5.8 - 6k from dealers prior to the auction. Great image and mint ones increasingly harder to find.

Banksy Flags Wanted, by LJCal on Dec 17, 2019 16:15:02 GMT 1, Found one in good condition for £6,700 so I'm going to move on it. Hopefully have it in hand next week. I'll post pics of it once it's up on the wall.

Banksy Flags Wanted, by LJCal on Dec 17, 2019 21:47:55 GMT 1, The fragility of the paper is the pure benefit of those that have one. As it's such a large edition it's lagged for years, price-wise, but each time one changes hands it gets opened to inspect, reframed etc and gets damage This print is the equivalent of IKEA furniture - great once, falls apart quickly if moved 🙄 I framed mine two days after the Ghetto I bought it at, and only opened it once, two years ago to photograph the number verso for Pest Control, so it's as mint as it gets Not for sale (at this point), but good luck with your search - they are out there. As people's priority changes in life, and prices steadily increasing, others will pop up on the market as thresholds get met. Again, good luck. I’m a bit concerned with the paper quality, do you think it will stand the test of time if well looked after?

Banksy Flags Wanted, by LJCal on Dec 18, 2019 1:22:25 GMT 1, I’m a bit concerned with the paper quality, do you think it will stand the test of time if well looked after? For sure. The more you do with it, opening, framing, reframing etc, the more likely you'll do damage. If you choose carefully, frame once and leave, it'll be great. Glad you've (seem to have anyway) found one. My threshold for sale is 7.5; once they hit that then off she goes - I've a family to buy a house for! You may not have to wait too long, seems like a lot of unsigned prints are going a bit crazy at the moment.
