Shepard Fairey on Ebay, by lobio on Jan 24, 2022 0:20:36 GMT 1, I have heard that since Fairey prints sell out so fast on his site many re sell on the secondary market on EBay. Is this true ? Are the prints sold on EBay authentic ? Fairey doesnโt issue COAs so wondering what the case is here?

Shepard Fairey on Ebay, by Viennese on Jan 24, 2022 1:34:01 GMT 1, There are some prints available on his website:
store.obeygiant.com/
Also, I would not give up trying to obtain a print from his website if you like a future release. I have managed to score one recently and I am def not the fastestโฆ

Shepard Fairey on Ebay, by bonesy on Jan 24, 2022 12:12:02 GMT 1, Are there really TONS of knock offs of signed & numbered recent Obey prints? They donโt sell for a ton, are they really being bootlegged?

Not historically, and I don't believe now either. I wouldn't touch Obama or Liberte, but other than that would be fine picking up almost anything on ebay.
There was one large format print that was booted back in the day, all with same numbering, but for the life of me I can't remember which one it was. I do know that it stood out because there had been so little bootlegging of Fairey.

Shepard Fairey on Ebay, by eD on Jan 24, 2022 13:29:05 GMT 1, On Ebay I always look at the seller. Make sure they have good history and feedback - Look at past products sold so you can see that what they are selling fits their profile. You can always message the seller and ask for a copy of their invoice - I've done that previously.

I've never managed to get anything on release - despite pre-signing in to PayPal etc. Maybe I'll give it another go! |

I didnโt think so either
Shepardโs signature has certainly evolved through the years but it is also extremely consistent given a point of time. If youโre looking for a 2010 print look at 2010 signatures and you should be able to have a comfort level that the print is legit, just confirm with the seller that you are receiving the actual print that is pictured in the listing.
