i understand that the signed prints have higher value, but do you think people will be wiping their butts with the unsigned prints later on..say 20-25 years from now? how will they be looked at? garbage for the masses with lower incomes, or a true art investment?

I don't understand this comment at all...
Somethings value is determined by what people are willing to pay. If people are willing to pay ยฃ2k for an U/S then that is what it is currently valued at.

3 or 4 unsigned for the price of a signed. if the prices keep coming down then i'll buy the other unsigned banksy prints i would love to own. it's good either way.

simple economics .......the value is inflated by people who think they are all gonna make $$$$ (like the stock market) so they buy them all up but when the crunch comes (like now) people want to offload , the value goes down and down ......who wants a unsigned work when a signed is worth ten times more ?
buy pork bellies !

Correction: A small handful make a lot of money during a recession, those people don't waste time w/unsigned prints or editioned prints in general...

BONGO SAY HOLD STEADY , by Martin Whatson on Sept 7, 2008 3:37:19 GMT 1, What a boring decition!! What if you suddenly find something really nice and cant buy it because its not signed by banksy??
(haha, drunk, and just now I noticed that you might be talking about if you buy Banksy prints they have to be signed, not that you limit yourself to only banksy I see not much pleasure in owning alot of unsigned prints!)
I decided years ago to ONLY collect signed BANKSY's.
