One of the ones that released by Other Criteria last year.

I have a spot board with a classic hirst image drawn on it. Comes with provenance from Other Criteria. I believe there were 40 of these available when they went on sale and were sold at incremental prices...much like the current spot prints. Believe the final value was £4200 on these.

Prefer a face 2 face deal due to the delicate nature of the board/case but willing to discuss shipping overseas.

Am in the process of putting this in an auction in April before the Tate show but figured I'd offer it here first.

Looking for offers over £4000

thats quite a big flipper i mean fin that shark has

[saint]

amazes me that an 'artist' can be so bad at drawing a shark, looks like it took him about 10 goes to get it right... My cat can draw a better shark....

Anyways, certainly one of the better decks i've seen amazingly.

Good luck with it.

have you contributed anything positive to this forum? Just seems like you go into various thread shitting on people.

You: urbanartassociation.com/index.cgi?action=userrecentposts&user=bombaytrix

Me: urbanartassociation.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=ebaychat&thread=90847&page=1

and as far as I know £4k is below what these ended up retailing for (4.2 was the final price) so there you go.

[bombaytrix]

You didnt pay £4200 though, you paid £2400. Its ok that you no longer "bloody love the thing"

[johnnyh]

I have one of these an think they are cracking pieces. Hirst sketch and sig def worth having. I love mine. Is it worth 4k. I think so and I think esciff has had long enough not to be accused of flipping. Eg it's about 7 months since. Yes he is making a profit but that's the rate they were selling at. It was only the early buyers who go that price.

Pretty similar to he recent Hirst dot print thread. But as mentioned been a decent while nice these were available and not sure they will come up often.

Good luck with flogging it mate and if you can make a tidy profit then fair enough, theres an arse for every seat so i suppose some idiot will buy it.

[ashrx]

Some people on this forum need to get out more! bombaytrix if you dont want it dont buy it. Your investigation work is great, well done but probably best kept it in your head.

serious question, is there any art you like?

EDIT: thanks johnny, new this was gonna draw some ire but figured selling less than face would be ok.

[ashrx]

Jogging. Just think some comments aren't needed.

P.S. I've worked out its a forum

Yes mate plenty, chances are though nothing you have in your collection.

[johnnyh]

To be honest Esciff I do not think it's a bad deal. It would cost someone more than that to make me part with mine.

Loved these from day one.

Good luck with it mate nicely perspexed as well.

Shame.

[Wrxinprogress]

Funny how they jack up the prices in OC from nothing to £4200 in a blink, if they are popular that is, funnily enough always makes me feel like Hirst is a bit of a shark. It really goes a little bit against what or where he is from IMO. The spot prints make much more sense especially the wood cuts, signed and not initially inflated by greed.

Nice board btw, hope you were early on the take as an original anything by DH is pure gold.

[ABC]

I like it, but knowing my luck one of my kids would stick trucks on it and test it in the skate park.

[dodomank01]

£4200 of shit!!! Wise up, got to be the worst buy on this forum !

[dodomank01]

What feckin use is a signed or doodled skateboard??? It's as usefull or artfull as a invader crep! Pure shit !! No art just a piss take!

Use? It's art... What use is any piece of art really? I think the real question is the cost and I'm not sure how the price at the gallery equates to that on the open market, but it's not mine and it's only my opinion.

[dodomank01]

Art? Are u kidding me ?? Where ? What's the art? It's a skateboard!!

[Deleted]

Maybe you need to think about what art is

[johnnyh]

Dodomankin you moron why do you not read things before you place your vitirol on the forum.

Yes it's a skate deck. But normally a print or canvas. You being such a grand art critic I assumed would have been able to step out of that two option medium.

However this has a hand drawn doodle orig and signature on. In my book whether you like the drawing/doodle or not but by Mr Hirst constitutes Art.

So please grow up and stop saying on every thread you enter on it's crap, over priced, feckin useless etc etc. It is occasionally funny but on every thread you enter it just becomes boring.

No one is interested.

[rka00]

ah yes, the beauty of art...to each his/her own
