I bought some artwork back in the early days and I am completely out of touch with the market. I've had a quick look round at prices and want to know if these prices are realistic - last time I looked at ebay (a few years ago) I'm sure the micallef 21st century love was selling on ebay for +8k...lolol?

Anyway - here are the prices - am I way out?

Banksy Napalm edition of 150 2005 (Signed) COA, original owner purchased direct from POW £4.25k - conservation framing, museum glass, white box frame

Micallef 21st Century Love signed print - COA, original owner purchased direct from Eyestorm £3k - conservation framing, museum glass, white box frame, double mount

Blek Le Rat Beggar Canvas Edition of 10 (the real edition not the homeless magazine edition) - COA, original owner, purchased from Mike (who i think now is the owner of Black Rat Press) - £4.25k

I'm really not a specialist but these prices sounds too low for me... maybe a reason why nobody has put any comments in that Thread yet ;-) You might get loads of PMs to lift your offers though...

oh, seems...yes, reasonable...actually trying to sell framed artwork though (besides the Banksy) will also require patience I think...or just take them out of the frame now and save yourself some time well la dee fuckin' dah

[jmcy9999]

Lol...the two replies posted publicly say that the prices I've chosen seem reasonable...but the private messages from others say that the prices are too high...quelle surprise!

I remember now why I stopped keeping an eye on market prices ;-)

I can't imagine anybody telling you the signed Napalm is a rip-off at £4500 and Blek's artworks were on fire during last Bonham's Auction this month !

Thanks shootagain - that was a VERY interesting read.

You're welcome ;-) 2 more Urban Contemporary Auctions coming soon if you want to follow them and check some current prices (eventhough last Bonham's one was a bit heated and some pieces might have gone a bit overpriced...) :

One today (Bloomsbury) actually : www.bloomsburyauctions.com/auction/13474
Next one (Dreweatts ) on Oct 10th (there's a Thread on this Forum discussing it...) : www.dnfa.com/auctions.asp?view=saledetails&aucno=20486&avail=1

I would say that the 21st Century is way too low......Got to be closer to 4k!

(Nothing to do with the fact I have one for sale)

a signed napalm i thought was worth £4k, i turned down buying one recently for this price through a dealer. there has been a few recently on ebay from about 4.5 to 4.7k but not selling.
howlin hooker on the forum always seems to be the best for banksy print values, maybe pm him?

[stevieray101]

the price for a signed napalm is about £4k at the moment. for some reason it is "unloved" at the moment, every print seems to go through this phase - i remember a few years ago people were finding it hard to sell there CND's for £3k, now look at the price.

Bonhams, etc. are a tough call - those are maybe collectors looking to buy. you'll never get those sort of offers on this forum. well you might, but i doubt the buyer will follow through with there offer!
