Kaws • Sponge Bob KawsBob Set, Yellow, Black, Red, by Express Post on May 1, 2020 3:31:05 GMT 1, The fact that this particular piece is available and below auction = steal
Yellow is the most popular. Hold on tight.
of course I get the picture, people throw out numbers, like 35k, without proof, to hype up a sale of 15k as a “steal” I understand people can ask what they want, but my point is, why is everyone accepting 35k as the value to compare the sale of this black for 15k to? Everyone was so quick to give their opinion on what a good deal 15k is without anything to base that opinion on. I’m not disagreeing with the sale price but to consider it a “steal” seems to be a bit of a stretch, no?

It is a stretch.
Kaws stuff has topped off. One can easily grab some of the portfolios for below cost, recent NGV print for below cost, etc etc.

NGV print makes sense, huge edition and anyone who wanted one could easily purchase. Time will tell if they increase in value but it doesn't necessarily hold a candle to his regular editions.

Just search “kaws” and “at cost”.
Kaws has taken back his market which is good and all for the artist so that everyone else isn’t making a buck off of his work... but the ceiling has been hit.

Kaws • Sponge Bob KawsBob Set, Yellow, Black, Red, by andypandy on May 1, 2020 11:26:33 GMT 1, I love this print and it does look great with the Black frame/mount.
Generalising about the price of Kaws prints doesn’t really seem relevant to the Spongebob set of prints. In some way it’s like saying Banksy Nola is taking a dip in price because IFTL or TM have had some poor auction results.
I’ve had the Red Version since it was released and I bought the Yellow version for £11k almost 18 months ago. I personally haven’t seen many come up at Auction.
A friend sent me this last October but wasn’t sure which auction it was from....

Or maybe you just didn’t search for more than 2 minutes?
You can find more “near cost”, and seller end up selling at or below cost outside of UAA too, not something uncommon

Kaws • Sponge Bob KawsBob Set, Yellow, Black, Red, by ca on May 1, 2020 15:43:46 GMT 1, Had an option of buying one of these for $1200 back in 2012....and passed....yeah not my smartest move. I do prefer the yellow as it pops out more but do like the black.
Isn’t it funny how back then everyone hated the kawsbob prints, especially the yellow... we all know how that changed with the hype

Kaws • Sponge Bob KawsBob Set, Yellow, Black, Red, by pomelo on May 1, 2020 17:02:23 GMT 1, It was from Sotheby's October 2019 auction (Kaws lots: 218 to 225). Results link:
www.sothebys.com/en/buy/auction/2019/important-prints-and-multiples-day-sale
This print is amazing, black on black with black frame... for 15K €! Its a steal! Wish it was not reserved/sold and seller accepted trades. I would let go some prints I love for this Kaws. I was going to buy the Yellow one 2 years ago for 10K USD but the seller sold it to another customer
GLWTS!

Technically, sure it is - but that is one of his weakest releases to date. I think everyones been offered those below cost. I hear portfolio I think of 10 prints - none of which are close to retail.

Kaws • Sponge Bob KawsBob Set, Yellow, Black, Red, by andypandy on May 10, 2020 20:50:38 GMT 1, Thanks for the info on the Auction being Sotherby's. At the time I did think it was a bit unusual that the Black didn't actually sell...however I am still on the look out for one nonetheless..
Not sure that the price on a Yellow version would necessarily reflect the price on the Black or Red versions. They're all very different for obvious reasons and the main reason I am looking is simply to try and complete the set..which I think would be nice to have.
I reached out to the gallery in NYC regarding the one at $20k. They have said it's an AP and will be sending some images of the print over. I am also uncertain that the AP version would hold any additional value..
The last one that I can find that sold at Auction was in February for 1,840,000 JPY inc buyers premium.. (approx £13k or €15k)

That's an outrageous price, stay away from whoever quoted you that

“Technically it is” “Weakest releases to date” “Everyone been offered these below cost”
So you agree with me but sound like a idiot trying to defend your point....
And to what I said, recent releases can be found below cost, if it’s the portfolio, ngv print, OE toys, etc..... I don’t dictate his market, open your eyes

Yes, the set of 3 prints is "technically" a portfolio, the same way you are "technically" a contributing member of this forum.
My point, and always has been, based off your moronic "One can easily grab some of the portfolios for below cost" statement is - no, they cannot.
Maybe you need to be more specific when you speak. Perhaps educate us further of how "Kaws has taken back his market"? I'm sure we'd all love to learn from you.

Lol
So buy the ngv print and try and flip it like the rest of his followers continue to fail and do.
We agreed that it’s a portfolio, and can be found below cost, but for some reason this still doesn’t please you.
“I’m sure we’d all love to hear...” in a two person conversation I didn’t think I had to explain this to your made up friends. Remember you are only mentally sick when they start responding back to you 🤦♂️

Listen ya lil whipper snapper, I’m sure you’re all fired up by your recent entry level Kaws puzzle acquisition and are ready to take the art market by storm.
I suppose I need to reiterate since you didn’t seem to comprehend the first time “My point, and always has been, based off your moronic "One can easily grab some of the portfolios for below cost" statement is - no, they cannot.” Now, if you look closely there is an “s” on portfolio there. So you’ve implied multiple “portfolios” are easily obtainable. Did you perhaps mean to say “‘LOST TIME’, ‘ALONE AGAIN’ and ‘FAR FAR DOWN’ when bought individually, and not a single other highly desirable Kaws portfolio that sells for 100-400% more than retail can be purchased below cost”? If so, my apologies for reading something which can so easily be misinterpreted. If not, then again, maybe you need to be more specific when you speak.
Thank you so much for providing your expertise on how "Kaws has taken back his market”. I knew you couldn’t do it champ!
Not sure what the NGV print has to do with absolutely anything we’ve been discussing, but hey, thanks for providing more killer insight.
It appears you may have difficulties comprehending very basic concepts but this little website thing you are typing into is referred to as an “open forum”. You see, its not a direct line of communication between you and I and believe it or not other people can read it. If you recall, your original comment was dropping knowledge on two other forum members. I will let you scratch your little head on how I magically inserted myself into the conversation you were having with them. Others also asked you for clarification directly.
It is for their benefit, as well as my own, and any other forum member reading (thats assuming you now understand how this whole thing works) that you elaborate on the keen insight you had in the first place. If you won’t elaborate (because you can’t), I suggest you go finish your puzzle.
Apologies to the OP. And don’t worry people if you miss out on the Kawsbob just remember “One can easily grab some of the portfolios for below cost”, just hit up Zack for the plug.
Oh boy... Yes, the set of 3 prints is "technically" a portfolio, the same way you are "technically" a contributing member of this forum. My point, and always has been, based off your moronic "One can easily grab some of the portfolios for below cost" statement is - no, they cannot. Maybe you need to be more specific when you speak. Perhaps educate us further of how "Kaws has taken back his market"? I'm sure we'd all love to learn from you. Lol So buy the ngv print and try and flip it like the rest of his followers continue to fail and do. We agreed that it’s a portfolio, and can be found below cost, but for some reason this still doesn’t please you. “I’m sure we’d all love to hear...” in a two person conversation I didn’t think I had to explain this to your made up friends. Remember you are only mentally sick when they start responding back to you 🤦♂️ Oh boy… Listen ya lil whipper snapper, I’m sure you’re all fired up by your recent entry level Kaws puzzle acquisition and are ready to take the art market by storm. I suppose I need to reiterate since you didn’t seem to comprehend the first time “My point, and always has been, based off your moronic "One can easily grab some of the portfolios for below cost" statement is - no, they cannot.” Now, if you look closely there is an “s” on portfolio there. So you’ve implied multiple “portfolios” are easily obtainable. Did you perhaps mean to say “‘LOST TIME’, ‘ALONE AGAIN’ and ‘FAR FAR DOWN’ when bought individually, and not a single other highly desirable Kaws portfolio that sells for 100-400% more than retail can be purchased below cost”?

lol maybe if you take as much time to write up these mini essays as searching google we wouldn’t be where we are now ?
I also don’t plan on owning anything kaws related, but I guess assumptions gets all further in life. If I wanted to collect kaws (easily to do growing up in NYC) then I’d probably also have weird toys from kid robot and have walls of sneakers that change constantly with who ever the current hype man (I guess now that’s Travis Scott) decides to wear.... hard pass following trendy stuff.
Maybe don’t search through artsy for starters or other gallery-only sources with extremely inflated prices.

Kaws • Sponge Bob KawsBob Set, Yellow, Black, Red, by ca on May 12, 2020 3:12:52 GMT 1, Isn’t it funny how back then everyone hated the kawsbob prints, especially the yellow... we all know how that changed with the hype i have the yellow always liked it, plus watching the show with my son gave it some extra meaning. Looks great on the wall. Im glad you like it and enjoying it with your son. Wasnt taking a jab at you or anyone liking the piece, I just recall the print not being a fan favorite back then, took some time for most people to get on the kawsbob wagon

Wasnt taking a jab at you or anyone liking the piece, I just recall the print not being a fan favorite back then, took some time for most people to get on the kawsbob wagon Didn’t take as a jab, was just sharing as someone happy with their initial purchase ($800). He got to meet Brian at the Aldrich show and knows the Spongebob is his one day.

The online sale of the yellow kawsbob was through The Aldrich Contemporary Museum. The first 80 prints were sold at The Aldrich’s booth at an art fair and the remaining 20 prints were sold on their site.
