Banksy S&S - Swann Galleries Auction, by siegelsiegel on Jun 9, 2010 5:02:18 GMT 1, so went to the auction today, just for the stop and search. I got there after the lunch break, which was lot 192; stop and seach was lot 210. Every lot was going for under the estimated value, which gave me great hope in getting it. they get to 210 (little excited never been to a live auction) throw my paddle up 2000, very quickly goes to 2400 and everyone stops bidding. now its just me and someone whos bidding over the phone (who are you??!!! ?) i had decided before the auction that my price was 3200 and wouldnt go above, throw it up at 32 then phone bidder goes 34, i let it go once twice and of course couldnt let it go and bid again, as quickly as i bid 36 the mystery bidder bid 38..... if only the phones went down i would have had it for 2500.... IF ANYONE HAS ONE FOR 3200 the cash is sitting here and burning a whole in my pants... what a day

Banksy S&S - Swann Galleries Auction, by bonesy on Jun 9, 2010 9:10:02 GMT 1, S&S always seems to fetch a bit more at live auctions, which speaks well for the print regarding its appeal to folks who pay attention to the auction houses and not so much attention to here & ebay.
You should have bought mine in person a few weeks ago Siegel

Banksy S&S - Swann Galleries Auction, by siegelsiegel on Jun 9, 2010 17:04:25 GMT 1, Just to clarify the auction was in NY and the numbers I'm talking are in USD. Couldn't believe the overwhelming response of people trying to sell it to me and then realized they all think its 3200 pounds.
