Yeah, his prices went too high for me... love his work and glad I got a good collection of his work before his pieces became this price range.

His early prints are great.

I think the price is just about right on this release. It’s larger than his usual releases and tbh those were underpriced at $75.

Maggiori prints with edition sizes of several hundred are priced at $300+. This edition of 90 is only marginally more expensive. If you like Seth’s work this is a nice image too!

And yes, Maggiori has more demand overall, but they’re both very talented artists and I’m happy to see Seth’s demand picking up.

^ Perhaps. I won’t be surprised if it sits there a while though. While it is his largest print yet, not sure if it is a good thing for his art.

Yer obvs not familiar with the Unit. They're a "higher end" jawn along the lines of of Avante. Once they pick ya up, yer prices are getting raised. the print will sell out pretty fast me thinks especially since I think they did a presale too.

^ I am not very familiar with them, you are right. I bought from them before, but that’s about it.

Oh yeah, prices went up solely on being sold by Unit. I loved when Seth was selling directly from his site... got a lot of proofs. Wish I had jumped on his OGs being sold on Thinkspace a few years back. Couple thousand for killer pieces.

and "jawn".... you from Philly??

Glad I caught him before these international gallery releases. Bought enough when he was cheaper.

The scale is lager than most his of releases but were not in James Jean territory. Both need to come down $100-150. That amount is the flipper squeeze.
