Banksy • Radar Rat Print • 2004

[BME]

Not rude but a lot less!

[lexo]

Does aneyone now if the radar rat on ebay at £5,999 was sold it seemed to dissaperar but this seems very expensive for this piece


Cheers Lex

[RBK]

Yeah it sold for 5500 - you know you can check the completed items to check this, right?

I don't think it that high. I bet the one currently for auction goes for over 6K

[lesroy]

I would say that was a good price for that print ?!

Before christmas we has the Christ With Shopping bags going for £7k+ and the radar ratis of slightly smaller run.

Both amazing pieces though.

Lex has had his for longer than that McNuts, I was speaking to him this time last year about selling / buying his rat.

[mcnuts]

nahh i didnt mean about him reselling it, i knew he had it longer plus if he wants to sell it, do it! his stuff and can buy, sell, set it on fire and post it on youtube as he pleases imho.

i meant about the price seeming expensive 6K... the estimates on his current thread are now at minimum 3 times that... hell someone paid 6K for a frickin sepia moron!

Sorry mcNuts, read it the wrong way, Know what you mean fella, 18 months ago I balked at 1500 for a radar rat, this time last year I soiled myself at the thought of shelling out 5-7K, now its ooking like 22.5K and still no rat..... whodathunkit......

.. it sure is ..

Micallef JD just went for 1120

[bond]

your joking !!!!!!!!!!!!! that's amazing ! nearly double the usual price

[craigf]

Price is still a fraction of what it will go for so I don't think there are any serious bids cast yet

totally agree, got 6 days left, think there will be a mad fight at the end

wish i had that sort of cash

[craigf]

Over £4k now!!!!

Might need to eat my words if it carries on like this

[bond]

now at £ 5778 !!

another one i can cross off my list !

[jam]

This is a classic piece though... should be a record setting auction I would expect. If I were spending the kind of loot this will bring, I would be looking a Micallef on canvas at Sothebys instead... alas I don't have an unlimited art fund so no worries about me bidding on this one!

[dgb133]

I don't understand why anyone would bother placing a bid on this unless they are bidding well over 5k? But I guess they can tell their friends they were the "high bidder" on Radar Rat ...if only for a few minutes. :-)

Maybe people places bids on Banksy so early just to see if they have a chance and because they really need a couple days to check with their bank that they can borrow XXX amount of money if they win?

Me, I've got better things to do with my time than pretend I can afford to blow this much money on a print. Nor do I care to pretend that a bid of 2, 3 or even 4k will actutally win me this print.

All I know is if I bought this thing fresh off the printer, I would cash this in too. Downpayment on a house right here.

Next.

[chrisps303]

its over 10k already!

[corisma]

15 would be Crazy ............... wouldn't it

[carl]

[Montubu7]

you should contact the powerseller named "ally189" on ebay... he/she had one up on ebay a few weeks ago that no one bid on starting at 12.5gbp... might be able to work out a deal...

Someone contacted me a few weeks ago re a Radar Rat they might be selling. I cant remember who it was.
So, if you have a Radar Rat or a Banksy original and would like to sell or swap, please contact me in confidence.

Hi Zips,

Tombola (Previously Thomas, amongst other things) is thinking about selling his Radar Rat... He's a good bloke too.

Good luck mate, one of the best and most "Banksy" of all images imo
