Now that's a lot of acid.

wonder if i'll actually be able to purchase something now.
pay via paypal, use credit card,file dispute at the 20 day mark if suspicious. don't deal with noobs. don't trade with noobs. request feedback ahead of time. there are lots of good people 'round here.

He also says in every post to enquire at the gallery and they reply with “sign up for releases”, lol.

Also, to the points made above in regards to pricing:

It's a couple of years I'm trying to buy something from Chuck but it's almost impossible from his website full of bots so I still have nothing. Maybe this is finally the right time but 2k for an edition of 30 seems a lot. What do you think? Is it worth it?

Only you can decide if it’s worth it to you. But I will say that a decent wood image will definitely retain its value, and things ain’t getting cheaper.

I'm quite new as a collector and I'm always afraid trend will pass and in 10 years no one will remember the artists of my prints. For 200$ I can live with it, for 2000$ it's a different story. When I think that for 40k I can buy a decent Andy Warhol print, 2k as release price seems quite excessive to me.

By all means, if $40k for a Warhol grabs you more than $2k for a Sperry, get the Warhol. For many collectors, a Warhol is out of reach, and so they are completely different markets.

not sure why you'd bat an eye at the price of a 2k wood print if you can consider buying a 40k warhol.

I think it was meant as a hypothetical. Not too many Warhol collectors on this forum.

PS if anybody’s got an iconic Warhol to sell for $40k give me a shout
