Shit! Rupert got a bargain, that pizza box was better than some that have sold for over 5K....

[craigf]

Pretty stunning pizza box that one, definitely a bargain ;D

[rosstierney]

i can't believe you missed that one neil

it's the one i pointed out as being the nicest i've ever seen up for sale a few weeks back

[Harveyn]

I know....

I put a snipe on at £2450. The prices are dropping on these so eventually I will get one close to this price. That said if someone has a special one I will pay more.

nice piece to whoever won it.

loving the price dropping for these pieces, also missed out on this one, but want something with a little more colour. Prices seem to be wildly different at the moment, some still basing prices on one sale at bonhams, and others considerate of the current economic situation.

Was watching this auction also but decided not to bid, a little bit too steep for me

Was wandering around google and found this link to an old thread here on the banksy forum, the pizza box that Trismanco ended up selling (about halfway down the thread) is amazing !

how mach was the cost price of the box?

[worlddomination]

I think these pizza boxes will go up in value shortly not down, as the current ones all change hands and they dry up again. lets remember its an edition of 100 and thats all and slot in between a street piece and a gallery piece. Must admit the one just sold on ebay was a beaut and a steal IMO

[edcase]

Interesting that you feel they slot in between street pieces and gallery pieces. Are you basing that purely on the size? I'd actually argue that all of these pieces live or die by the specific image. I've seen a lot more powerful street pieces that I would prefer to own than many of the pizza boxes from this range that I have seen, and in many cases at higher prices too, and indeed bought one such example over a cheaper box. Although admittedly I've probably only seen less than 20% of the pizza boxes.

you got to remember edcase, these pieces come with written provenance, rather than just a referral to neates site, which makes them even more desirable

Fair point, hadn't considered that. Still, providing you are buying from a concrete source, I'd much rather have something which I'm 101% happy with on the wall.

My neate has become my favourite piece, and indeed I think quite possibly he is becoming my favourite artist.

Your Neate is a really nice piece Edcase!

He's back!

Hooray!
