faking an invader print is quite a bit of work, not undoable, and at current prices a bit more worth while, but with the blind stamp and embossing it takes a real print shop and a strong desire to make that happen. you can not just run them off on any old epson p600 based on a high quality scan.

i like betting and, as an old ross sniffing horsess**t since 35 on the hippodromes I can smell swindles and swindlers at the first glance since the pacific ( I live in a Oceanic country )

Sorry I don't understand what that means? Are you saying I'm setting you up for a scam? you may choose any FG to escrow with and judge.

No nothing wrong, I'm , you are ok. Never mine, feel good, wine maybe

i don't believe you. It s easier to make fake prints for eBay morons ( not you of course ) than fake kits ( unless you are blind ! - there is a cello wrapped, signed and numbered around kits, prints are only paper and ink

What's hard to fake with kits?
You can buy the tiles and the anti-static envelopes, and done!
Much easier than an embossed screen print.

if you know Invader or look very well at his tiles, you will understand me : it's really a good brand, very lighter and more shining,,quality I would say , Invader never used cheap products.
Easy to recognize fakes or reals.
Even my son gave one to him,we easily see which ones are professional tiles !! And constructions

not agree. Invader is a perfectionist whatever he creates, if you remember that you will never buy fake kits or prints.
We are not on eBay here !

I am not saying I will buy fake kits or prints...for me I don't see the point of owning a fake banksy or invader. Either you save and then buy or you don't own.

But I am pretty sure we will find fake invaders in few months on eBay.

there is years that we can find faked Invaders on the bay

Ok
wana bet? - we can escrow with any trusted member, paypal ready

Sorry I will amend my statement - orbi has confirmed fake Japan kits, but not Paris.

Bet offer still stands.

I think you will find that the faked kits were Vienna and Tokyo. I have been in possession of both of these kits before as it was I that discorvered the faked in the first place. There is a thread somewhere about this.

The anti static bags are dated, you will find it difficult to get the correct dated bag in the first place. Or if you try and remove the print and print over it you can still tell, that's how I found the fakes when it came out.

Let's try to discuss this topic about fake Invader kits here further:

urbanartassociation.com/thread/110899/warning-fake-sealed-invader-kit

So jB can sell his Invader Kit 5 - ATARI 2600.

[kyriakos]

Honestly, I was so happy to open the thread, i intended to bid... then... no package... Hmmm... ok
If you find back the piece of plastic, it may have a value of around 2k...

[Rude Copper]

hi
have 2 unsigned invasion kits for sale, unopened,
will post pics later, but anyone interested?,
i think IK3 & IK8, will confirm

[Pipes]

Probably not.

Prices have been tanking recently.

Ahem.

😉

[Dexter Bulldog]

Check graffiti streets site to see what they're selling for. I imagine he'll contact you with an attractive sum

[Pavoni]

Invader's archive shows the kits were only available as Unsigned until IK #6. Did not know that.
So an Unsigned 1 - 5 is the best you can get for those pieces.

If anyone knows different feel free to chime in.

www.space-invaders.com/soldout.html

[Pattycakes]

I think that is right, the first few I bought were only available unsigned. I actually put some of them up on walls many years ago... sadly only have two left now.

[Rude Copper]

Would also consider px for unsigned banksy, or could make up with cash for signed

[milo99]

Why would anyone buy from graffiti street, looks super over priced

[Rude Copper]

apologies, just checked the 2 are IK8 third eye & IK6 the runner

[DrWhite]

Ik6 runner is my favourite kit !

[Wrinkled Brain]

How much are you looking to get?

[Pavoni]

Agreed...and we're not alone.

When IK 16 (Flash) came out someone here ran an unofficial poll on which kit was the favorite.  IK 6 was in top 3.

Sure it is on here archived somewhere.

[Lroy]

Sorry to come here but now, there are about 5 or 6 threads in te sale section without any pics ?! ( but only money taliking )
This is wrong , not only because we can't see the state of the items/artworks but because we would love to see how they look like as we are talking about art.
Thank you.
Invader kits were numbered by the artist ( could sound as a signature ) and made by artist 's hands ( not a machine printing , rather assembling them ), then It depends, some always have been both unsigned and signed. The signed ones were a very little ex. under that 30 or 50 , when others were at 150.
Since the 13 or 14, i guess, they are all signed, not unsigned.
It's funny, we can't have access to shop archives ... Why ? Invader firit to put back the link ?

To the pool ?

[kyriakos]

Result was 22000€ for 13 kits ;-). Auctions results are the enemy of graffiti street... kits in auction usually leave around 2000-3000€. Here is was 1700€.... I had the chance to buy this on behalf of a friend to the happy winner of that auction and buy it for 35000€ as some were signed by invader with marker.
