Steve Laz' Swindle - a tenner story

Thanks guys but I see his side. However, we have our side too.

And I'm just more vocal over the last 12 hours because coincidentally Andipa is selling their allocation end of the month. I didn't want ppl thinking there are just loads more coming in. So basically here to answer questions.

"Andipa Gallery is a leading international dealer in Modern and Contemporary Art since 1967."

Never heard of them. Who gave them that title?

Only time I can remember BNG mention auction/eBay results, creating a market and protecting investments regarding a previous or upcoming re-release is with these notes. The tiered pricing fits the narrative perfectly.

yea i want you guys to have something special. It was the point of this lol I just mentioned on FB that we weren't really understanding the quick flip for $100 mentality on these on Ebay. If you're goal is to make instant money, I dont think this was it. And as you can see with the book bringing more eyes to the provenance and just his market doing well, it appreciated in value (For ppl who are looking at it on more of an investment level).

FWIW, I’m very happy with my tenner and would buy another given the opportunity. It is exactly as you say Joe, an opportunity for those that have wanted one but needed to have that solid provenance. You priced them fairly. They were framed nicely. The release went smoothly. It was a no brainer for me.

Count me in with those happy with their Tenner purchase. Joe, Arseny, and the crew at BNG are art collectors/lovers, and found a neat way to filter out the real Tenners versus the countless fakes.

BTW, after visiting the Moco museum in Amsterdam, I’m thinking about reframing my Tenner with a something that’s a little more over the top and ornate.

literally this. If someone sells something and you don't want it, don't buy it and the stfu. Ppl are so triggered by things they have no reason to be. Go live your life

Got a free unframed tenner with a CoA from Steve after I bought his book. Cool piece of art but not worth $800-1200 imo
