Question about recent Pomet nft sale, by bestiole on Feb 3, 2022 16:28:55 GMT 1, First of all, I would like to say that I am new to this forum and new to this art market. It is a world that I do not know, perhaps my questions can surprise.
I would like to have your opinion about a recent online sale made by the stowe gallery for the artist Paco Pomet. Like many others I imagine, I like the piece "International" and was interested in this NFT sale because this work was included.
A date for the sale was announced on the website of this gallery. It turned out that all the NFTs for this piece were actually sold a week in advance. (Obviously the NfT's were already being offered for resale, significantly more expensive, before the official sale even started)
I'm trying to understand the logic but it seems to me this is extremely shady and not transparent from this gallery. I would like to know what you think about this practice, is it common, and especially to what extent is the artist aware of / complicit in this.
Here again, forgive the naivety of these questions, but very concretely I need an answer before looking for another Pomet.
If my post is not in the right place, please move it.

It was just sold out during presale with this one. Itโs not hard to get on Stoweโs presale list, I suspect that anyone who has purchased from them had a chance. Thousands of emails for 100 prints that were of a popular image, Iโm not surprised it sold out before general sale.

Question about recent Pomet nft sale, by ecudat on Feb 8, 2022 11:09:38 GMT 1, Shame to miss out, but basically we've probably all learnt the hard way at one point or another. Sign up to every gallery/print house/artist mailing list you can if you like what they do. I had never bought from Stowe before but was on their mailing list and therefore was able to buy on pre-sale.
(To be honest, that came as a surprise as they had said no presales and if, for example, I'd had no internet for a day, I'd have missed out and been pretty pissed off too!)
