Hello all!

I have not posted on the forum in a while but I was hoping for some advice on selling some old Invader books. I have for sale 3 Invader books: ‘Invasion in the UK’, ‘Invasion Los Angeles’ and ‘L’Invasion De Paris’ Box Set’. I am finding it difficult to locate any recent sales data on these books, especially in this condition (all still sealed). I have placed them on Ebay for various Buy It Now prices or Best Offer but, honestly, I am not sure what is reasonable. I am not looking to rip anyone off but, at the same time, I do not wish to give them away. Can I ask for some guidance on the pricing please? These are For Sale and so if anyone on the forum is interested and would like to provide me with a sensible offer, I am happy to discuss.

Space Invader - ‘L’Invasion De Paris’ Box Set

This is the 2013 updated box set version of Invader’s ‘L' INVASION DE PARIS / 1000' (Box Set 1.2 & 2.0).

This book chronicles the history of Invaders in Paris. It contains 2 hardcover books, L’ Invasion De Paris 1.2 and L’ Invasion De Paris 2.0 and show show 1000 of the Invader mosaic street artworks placed all around Paris from 1998-2011. The books contain many interesting facts, stories, maps and locations of all the Invaders. Book 1.2 has 225 pages and Book 2.0 has 257 pages and both contain many colour photographs. The book was printed by Control P Editions.

The book was purchased during the week of its release (May 2013) and has been sat in a cupboard since then and remains still sealed in its cellophane.

It is a heavy box set and did receive a minor knock in transit to the top corner of the box set. I do not think this knock detracts from the beauty of the box set but it is a minor piece of damage, sadly.


Space Invader - ‘Invasion in the UK’

This is the original, 1st press of Invader’s ‘Invasion in the UK’ book. This is Invader’s 3rd instalment of his Invasion Guides, documenting the invasion of London, Manchester and Newcastle.

It is an unsigned, Limited Edition run of only 2000 with a silkscreen printed plastic cover. This book was published in 2008 and I bought it direct from Invader’s website at the time. The book has been sat in a cupboard since then and remains still sealed in its cellophane. It is in brand new, mint condition and no pages have ever seen the light of day.


Space Invader - ‘Invasion Los Angeles’

This is the original, 1st press of Invader’s ‘Invasion Los Angeles’ book. This is Invader’s 2nd instalment of his Invasion Guides, documenting the invasion of Los Angeles / Mission Hollywood.

It is an unsigned, Limited Edition run of only 2000 with a silkscreen printed plastic cover. This book was published in 2004 and I bought it direct from Invader’s website at the time. The book has been sat in a cupboard since then and remains still sealed in its cellophane. It is in brand new, mint condition and no pages have ever seen the light of day.


All three books come from a pet and smoke free home.

I will post these very well packaged using Royal Mail’s Special Delivery service.

Thank you for looking.

I have or had some and they are lovely. But why did not you post prices ? Easy to know how much they are selling for, you type on the left of ebay ( ending sale, or itams sold  and you will have the past or history of the books ).

Anyway best offer anre not really good because it's a bit lost On ebay.

Biddings for this kind of art is the best way ( with beginnning at 1 £ )

That what I am doing sometimes !

Good luck...

400 ? 500 ?

Hello
Mind sharing your eBay account?

[ncewnimw]

Soldart has some of these for sale at the mo. I.e. The Paris book. As for guidance.

I have no idea. Ive seen them everywhere from $200 to $5000. It seems Invader's stuff skyrocketed and is now falling (except the really sought after stuff). With that in mind people are all over on prices. Id either put them at auction on ebay or just pick a number that makes you happy and see if anyone says yes.

[┏( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)┛ EnS]

Soldart has/had all the three at $1100-1300.
Objectively I think it’s too much but if that’s the market…

I would probably start from those numbers and go down to max $800-850.
Check also on EBay as “sold” items to have an idea.

Recently the market is a bit going down + people don’t have much to spend in a book but it’s worth the shot.

You can also sell them together for no less than $2k. 

I have all the books and personally I wish they’d reach $5k each!

[Hard Trainer]

Thank you for the guidance.

If anyone is interested, I would propose the following prices:

Space Invader ‘L’Invasion De Paris’ Box Set - £600;
Space Invader ‘Invasion in the UK’ - £700; and
Space Invader ‘Invasion Los Angeles’ - £700.

I look forward to hearing from any interested parties.

Thank you.
