Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by fourputt on Mar 22, 2011 3:04:42 GMT 1, I have never seen one come up on the secondary market, hence have no idea what they might fetch.
In any case, I was able to score one of his small pieces from the sale of a few pieces he did last year on his site. I can't even find the link to it on his blog anymore. It's approximately 8x10 and I believe I paid $600AUS.
The only other OG of his I have ever seen for sale was a charity ebay auction for a painted postcard of a dove that brought over $900, if my memory serves me correctly. And that was slightly earlier than the purchase of my painting, so I am ambitiously guessing its value as closer to $2000+ or perhaps more to the right buyer considering the upcoming JLG show as well.
Tough times in my home mean I have had to think about selling it. Any ideas, theories, thoughts would be appreciated. I hate to do it, and am almost hoping to get a low estimate to keep me from selling. Thanks.

Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by murdock on Mar 22, 2011 16:09:32 GMT 1, I agre, 3A and EB are probably places with "better prices" for Geddes, and as I understood it, you are in the US, too, fourputt?
I'm pretty sure they discussed these OGs on the EB board somewhere.
As for price... well, between 1500-2000 US$ could be right, but only to die hard Geddes fans and speculators. As much as I am in love with his work (mostly non-Cosmo stuff), these "illustration pieces" are not my cup of tea.
Good luck with the sale, though!

"Local pick up only" always frosts my cornflakes.

Yeah, on the advice of the others I just went there and tried to register. 30 minutes later I gave up. Kept giving me error messages.

Listen to these wise words. It involves a different level of collecting that makes most Banksy/ street art collectors look like part timers.

You're right! Now registered, but another helpful forum member posted it for me. My, it seems to have gotten friendlier around here since I imposed a ban on myself a while ago.

Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by fourputt on Mar 22, 2011 21:12:58 GMT 1, In an effort to remain as transparent as possible, I am posting the highest current offer for all to see-$3000.
As stated in my OP, I am not in any rush to sell and will only do so if an extraordinary offer comes along. My main reason to post is to gauge interest and put a ballpark price on this piece.

Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by Deleted on Mar 23, 2011 1:09:00 GMT 1, $3k seems like a very strong offer especially compared to your initial cost. Well bought, sir.
I think your piece would look good hanging next to coach's OG...

Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by fourputt on Mar 23, 2011 3:39:46 GMT 1, Yes, I fully agree it is a strong offer. But I firmly believe that at this same time next year, it will be a bargain.
Look at the Keyes "interlock" piece being offered on here right now. Lots of similarities. Early piece, not the artist's "known"(cosmonauts) subject matter series, originally sold at a similar price. Now being flogged for $5000.
And Geddes' world recognition and acclaim is only just getting off the ground.
I don't expect an offer of more, but it isn't enough to risk kicking myself about in a couple years.

Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by murdock on Mar 23, 2011 10:05:50 GMT 1, Tough times in my home mean I have had to think about selling it. Any ideas, theories, thoughts would be appreciated. I hate to do it, and am almost hoping to get a low estimate to keep me from selling. Thanks.
Well, I guess it comes down to: Do you need the money right now? If yes, 3k is a great price and a big win for you. If no, the current value is just something to feel good about.
IMHO, this piece will not go higher than now, as it is not en par with Jem's current stuff/skill. Currently people are willing to pay that much for its speculation value. When the NYC show is here, there will be better pieces than these...
Then again, I've been wrong before

Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by Deleted on Mar 23, 2011 15:49:04 GMT 1, You have a cool OG, it's just a question of do you love it or simply like it. If you love it then hang it up and enjoy it with the bonus of having a better idea of what others would pay to have it. If you don't feel that attached to it $3k is pretty good seed money that could help you go after a piece you may feel much stronger about. Good luck with your decision.
If only more dilemas in life had no down side!

Price check and possible sale: Jeremy Geddes OG, by Coach on Mar 24, 2011 1:13:12 GMT 1, $3k seems like a very strong offer especially compared to your initial cost. Well bought, sir. I think your piece would look good hanging next to coach's OG...
Haha - cant get used to seeing my pics posted by someone else. Technology eh? I agree, the two pieces would look great together. Had no idea that these might have risen in value so much - though suspected they had risen some. Guess I had better get mine behind some glass now, and not just have it leaning on a shelf! This piece draws so many comments from visitors - not necessarily that they like it, but they recognise the talent. I love mine. As others have said, fourputt, hope you are happy with whatever you decide to do - it's a lovely little og.
