And to think people here were worried about finger stains on prints

I agree, I think the market has fallen for the flippers, unless you get a Banksy of course. Even Micallef is taking a loss at the moment. Buyers market.

You aren't kidding! Some of the prices on Francis, Neate, Micallef, and even Banksy have been too low to resist over the past couple weeks... still looking for a few more lovely deals on my favorite prints. I believe the prices for the past month or so will seem like a distant memory in the spring when artists are doing new shows and putting out new work... and everyone has some spare cash to spend again!

I don't know... at first the excuse was that people needed cash for summer vaca or were away, then back to school or some other excuses and then prices are low because people need cash for christmas....

We had the banksy hospital show, the micallef show, the Ian Francis show, etc. all provided a little buzz but all have seen prices come back to earth and then some.

On top of that I think what's happening here is the hype has played out. Market was over saturated by the overload of Banksy in pop culture. Banksy may be around forever but that kind of thing has a shelf span and may even have a negative backlash? Saying prices are bargains now just because prices were so stupidly high several months ago is only a half truth. Maybe only a quarter truth?

Glad the prices are falling, I may now be able to buy the piece I want at a price I'm willing to pay.

This will be a temporary blip imo, so if you are after something now is the time (even though it's near xmas) to dive in. I think everything will pick up in the spring.

[dave313perry]

thier selection process didnt help - it allowed a select few who run multiple delivery addresses, multiple name, multiple e-mail addresses to get youve guessed it 'multiple sets - which you now see on ebay!!!

poor system - flippers are more on the ball than the average collector IMO

[brenclan]

Wow.. just received my Ian Francis "two people in the snow" that I won off the bay and the detail is simply breathtaking. Would most certainly recommend.. though would prefer for you all to wait until I pick up another piece before you all start driving the price up again

Once my Nick Walker arrives I will have about 8 pieces on their way to MisterFrameMan so he better clear his schedule!

[Zippy]

Its a stunning print. well done on getting it.

Bloody marvellous prints! Never mind the size, feel the quality, as I say to the missus.

[bob1]

Beautiful print, the best out of the new batch for me, Im still deciding on how to frame them, any ideas people?

[veralynn]

Hi, I own Amy Allen and also Two People Lose Track - Amy Allen is framed in matt white 1.5" box frame and looks stunning, for the Two People I've gone for Gloss White with a bevelled edge on the advice of my framer. There's so much colour in the image anything else might be a detraction - stunning images, stunning quality and no for the sceptics I'm not a seller!!!

Good to hear of some getting framed up, nice one Vera +1

[funthyme]

Please let me know if anyone has one for offer....

Cheers

[patrese]

having got all 4 of the recent set, this is fast becoming my fav one...awesome colours

[valeha]

good taste!

I got it as a Bday present, it is gorgeous! good luck! ;D

[veralynn]

Not really of much help to you as a buyer but can say that as an owner of 'Two People Lose' its spectacular in terms of quality and colour. There's been much debate about prices and residual value but if you are buying because you like it then I dont recall seeing finer prints.

[njr911]

My Aya is going straight on the wall as soon as I get some framing cash!

[funthyme]

think it's going to be a tough job prizing one of these off you lot....

[njr911]

Good luck though...you'll love it when you get one. I'd say get one sooner rather than later what with the show next year and prices soft atm.

[jam]

Solid advice njr911... if you don't get your Francis in the next month or so, expect to pay double or more once the details with Laz are announced.

Ok, so here goes, I am moving to start my business, home repairs are adding up much faster than expected or anticipated...I need the cash to finish up the repairs on my house, pay the mortgage while it is on the market and help me finance the rent for an apartment while the business is in its infancy. I anticipate it will take a few months before my house will sell and am getting very stressed out about the financial situation in which I find myself.

With much regret, I'm left with no option but to sell my prized first set of Ian Francis Blk/Mrkt prints - I'd prefer to sell all as a set and will be taking offers.

A Girl Sleeps Through A Storm Thinking About Something Else - edition of 25

The Death Star Explodes! No, A Chinese Satellite - edition of 25

A Girl Is Araid of Her Friend Dressed As Pikachu - edition of 25

A Japanese Couple Comes To America - edition of 25

Also available to sell either together or not is Ian Francis

Girl In Ny - offers - ed. of 25

Two people spend a day in the snow- offers - ed. of 50

Also, I'm selling my 1993 BMW 525i touring wagon...

$4,000 which is book value for private resale and it has brand new snow tires and rims...all service records, blah blah blah...

I'm really sad to be selling these prints but, when push comes to shove we all have to do things we would rather not do...

so, pm me with offers ....

Thanks.

[Montubu7]

Bad time to sell mate, good luck..

[veralynn]

+1 for being bothered about the prints but not caring about the motor.....

[Filipino Box Spring Hog]

thanks Veralynn, yeah, I could care less about the car...the prints are probably not replaceable...and yeah, Teeeeeeeeeeee a horrible time to sell - I'll leave the offer up for a bit and then move on to the bay if no one is interested in making a reasonable offer - just looking to cover what I've spent for the prints - all four purchased on the secondary market for $7,000 u.s.

[chrisb]
