wow... 900 gbp ... officially out of my league

[discoduster]

Whats the betting on it hitting a thousand sheets within 2 months??

[ratboy]

that is too much. its too big a buggers. how much it costes to frame. drawing pins maybe cheaper for such big print and maybe no one notice holes on ebay photos when u sell again

If you're paying nearly £1000 for a print £200 to frame it seems pretty fair, when I bought mine direct from POW last year for £300 the £200 frame bill seemed pretty steep.

[ratboy]

corblimey corblimeylimey you got luck of devil. if me had respects left you have 1

[medicjones]

£900 for an applause - ouch! Mines still in the tube cos I cant afford the £200 to fraMe it still!!!!! Looks like the guy who bought it isnt short on money and certainly likes his banksys - s/he's spent nearly £20k+ recently according to his transactions!!!! (and yes i am jealous!)

[ratboy]

Looks like gallery purchaser, cause of the price hike!

[discoduster]

My Mona XL which is only slightly smaller than Applause costs £89 for a top frame and mount job from a reputable framer.

Why's Applause that much more expensive?

[corblimeylimey]

That's a hell of a deal DD, I paid £209 for mine, but I know my framer isn't the cheapest, I would have thought you could get Applause framed for £150ish without any trouble particularly in the larger cities.

[dgb133]

I don't know if I would say that guy is a dealer really. I don't think dealers would be dumb enough to pay $160 for the Andipa Catalogue or care to pay $500 for Cut it Out and some stickers? But he definitely has some spare cash lying around. That guy is also the one who paid a record amount for barcode in May. He also got a couple copies of the B&W signed Morons for 2500 pounds. Guess that profit will pay for 1 or 2 prints right there? But he's also payed high prices on several prints. Speculators, he's driving prices way up all based on speculation...

sad.

Yeah it did seem quite reasonable.

They did a real top job an all. Proper professionals spent ages sampling things, and genuinely trying to find what was best for me.

Gotta pick up my Cautys in the nxt coupla weeks.

Will get a quote for Applause and post it.

And exactly a month ago he sold an Applause for 749! Strangest things happen on Ebay

he actually was the buyer at 749... this guy alone may be the reason the prices are soaring... what it must be like to reach into your unlimited deep pockets...

fucking hell

That is the one print that I really wanted but never pulled the trigger even at 650. Don't know why. I really wish I had as I really want it. Oh well...

I'm now feeling the same about Flying Copper.

I too think all Banksy prints will go for over a grand in the not too distant future.

dazsw18 is truly a dealer. don't know where he sells, but as RK said, he spends plenty via the bay. he obviously knows he can sell for x amount so can buy for more than the general market value on ebay. good luck to him but don't read too much in to what does as fact, he is both a speculator and a parasite. only in it for the money.

Unsigned Grannies just sold on the bay for £982

the apocolypse is nigh.

[Zippy]

for those with heaving collections its a 'pat on the back' and a moment of smugness.
But, its now pushing prices of unsigneds out of the majority of ppls' reaches.
The gap between signed and unsigned is getting a bit closer again.
We were seeing all signeds at 5k + but now some are going at 4.5ish and unsigneds are nearly all at 1k with some pushing 2k.

They're definitely all going to go over £1000

[a4mnt]

makes looking around for alternatives all the more exciting

[Zippy]

signed rat just finished on ebay. bidding went to 4k but reserve not reached.

[corblimeylimey]

Not surprised, I'd have thought a sensible reserve on any signed would be £4500, maybe £5000 even.

Zero rated winning bidder though!
