No, when I just read the Newsletter, I just shook my head. 
Say about Shepard Fairey what you want, but his HPMs sell for $2-3000 from source and not ten grand, when all he does here is change the color of the spray can.
I kind of liked the Kitty Riot image (not enough to buy a print), but this is ridiculous...

Wish i picked up one of the grenade lovers canvases a year or so back, they were hanging around for ages!

long year in your life mate.
last time his origs were sold for 1500 was .... around the time handmade started up.
which is a long time ago.
~ 6k - the norm for a while.

EDIT: sorry arf1ka - beat me to it....

unless of course, someone buys the work because they love it and see some long term prospects in the artist and have no intention of flipping it....then it remains "priceless".....

Personally I think this is overpriced as hell. To me it´s a turn off knowing that the piece will fall drastically in value the moment I buy it.
Flipping doesn´t have to be the intention, it´s more like common sense.

DOLK • Kitty Riot, by AFR1KA on Dec 13, 2010 16:23:13 GMT 1, It may be expensive but if each color is 1/1 which is what it sounds like, then compared to prior sale prices of canvas pieces that were at the least 1/3 this is not a bad deal at all. The market is what it is. DOLKs pieces just seem to sell at this price range.

They are stencils but I know the texture and work of the canvas pieces at the brooklynite show were incredible. They definitely looked like each one took some time.

How much do you think the latest Banksy prints cost to print each?

Somehow I doubt this guy even cuts his own stencils. Look, I'm not talking down on the his medium... I'm just saying that there is plenty of AMAZING original pieces of art that can be purchased for this amount of cash.

If people are willing to pay the price, thats what they are worth.
Supply and Demand.

Silky,
you and I both know that at this point everyone is paying for the name and the hype. How much do Louis Vuitton bags cost to make?! Or anything else that has a "designer" name attached to it.
Look, I get it... I'm not saying Dolk doesn't need to make money for his ideas, but what I am saying is that his ideas are nowhere near as witty and/or relevant as Banksy's and these pieces are completely over-priced... This is nothing new, "expensive art" is somewhat of an oxymoron and sounds totally redundant.

DOLK • Kitty Riot, by AFR1KA on Dec 13, 2010 21:44:43 GMT 1, A week really? I figured a day tops...it wasnt 3 sets of 3, it was 3 total all unique color-ways. Definitely a good deal for DOLK collectors considering almost all his canvas work is in editions of 3-10. I liked the pink and red ones personally.
Its crazy to think that one of these is cheaper than the going rate for one of the new Banksy prints.
