Cleon Peterson Seeker Print, by ravnur 2020 on Feb 15, 2022 2:32:29 GMT 1, Love CPs work, but I guess there is only so many decapitations one can get away with having on the wall 😊Bought a beautiful golden one of a forum member previously and it looks fantastic on the wall.
I love the black on black print colouring, but contrary to the general sentiment above I’m not very keen on the seeker motif. A figure standing on a point looking across the sea just seems a bit too obvious/cliché to me. Compared to a lot of his other prints I guess this one is more “family friendly” though.

100%. Instantly loved the gold decapitation and bought. Then I saw everyone talk about the seeker and wondered what I wasn’t seeing. I get the black on black will look great framed but much prefer, what I think, is the stronger image.

Cleon Peterson Seeker Print, by g41 on Feb 17, 2022 13:56:06 GMT 1, Loving the White + Black Seeker! Looking to buy but wondering what the import charge on these would be, 5% or 20%? This would be the first print I've bought from the US so any advice or thoughts is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Loving the White + Black Seeker! Looking to buy but wondering what the import charge on these would be, 5% or 20%? This would be the first print I've bought from the US so any advice or thoughts is greatly appreciated! Thanks! Be warned anyone who is getting the print delivered to the UK, DHL just rang and were trying to charge VAT at 20% instead of the 5% it should be. To those who haven't bought from the US before (bcma) make sure they have calculated your fees properly before settling the bill. |

I’m intrigued to know what a c*nt trick is. I suspect that google will not be my friend in this regard.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one that prefers Peterson's hostility-focused pieces. They just hold a lot of intrigue and in a direction that no one else is going. |

Prints on hold, currently getting passed from pillar to post about the import tax does anyone have a direct number for the right department at DHL?

Cleon Peterson Seeker Print, by modern rembrandt on Feb 23, 2022 18:41:24 GMT 1, Hey peeps, posting on behalf of a friend.
So he placed an order last night (apparently he copped the last copies of both prints!) but his Shopify account listed his previous address for shipping. Since he no longer lives at that address he emailed Cleon’s support team to correct the error.
Does anyone have experience with his shop/warehouse team?
He’s new to collecting and a nervous wreck he might lose the prints. Haha.

I agree that he's undervalued massively.
Some of his prints are stunning for example World on Fire and Flowers of Evil. It's all a speculation for now and unfortunately a lot of artists are valued more on their passing.

Absolutely think has potential, instantly recognisable, a few less literally bloodthirsty images and more metaphorical and I think will explode.

But from my very brief time of observing artists - I feel as though he doesn`t have that innate drive to attract galleries, media etc like Daniel Arsham, Hirst, Warhol etc. He just doesnt give me that business man vibe that I feel like you need to succeed. That "show-man" ship. I think he`s lacking that and I don`t know if he`ll ever have that.

I don’t own a Peterson but recently thought about getting print, then I read that he sabotaged another artist’s (Tristan Eaton) relationship with OTI gallery supposedly in an effort to be considered “less street”. So I guess he does seem to have that business man vibe 😉

The fact that most fare quite well distinguishing the artist from the art works in your favor. Speaking of “girl”, at least he did not punch his girlfriend in the face…

DHL Tried to charge me 20% AGAIN despite them saying they would recalculate. Rang back and was transferred 4 times to 3 different departments ... doesn't seem worth the effort for the £20 odd but i refuse to let the bastards win. Good luck all. |

Not sure why they sometimes bill before instead of after. They are the worse for getting taxes wrong though so if its anything like the above I will be straight on the phone!

Cleon Peterson Seeker Print, by bcma on Mar 1, 2022 20:47:01 GMT 1, Has anyone had any luck in being invoiced the correct 5% amount yet - keep going back and forth with DHL over email however they have stated:
"I could see that as per the backup documents provided by your supplier, the Duty and/or VAT has been charged correctly from our end.
Therefore, you may make this payment now to us and reclaim it from HMRC directly with the help of relevant documents."
I ideally rather have them re-invoice instead of have to go through the HMRC process, does anyone know of any ways to escalate this / have them change the tax invoice on their side?
Thank you!

Someone mentioned his prints don't look that good in real life. Respectfully disagree.

After raising a dispute with the import tax/vat @ 20% and not 5%.. (total bill £92)
lots of emails and calls, Popped into Papworth DHL collection center to actually speak in person to someone...
Was met by a very friendly lady called Stacey who went above and beyond to sort this after two months.
Anyway, she made some calls, I had the package delivered today with no charges at all..
Needless to say, the import charges I would of paid went on a bouquet of flowers!!
It's nice to be nice.. 👍
