  1. So i assume you will not be entering this year Gene ?
  2. Felix i am having problems downloading the episode, its coming up as not found ?
  3. I am always surprised when some real heavy hitters in this hobby, who use CAF to showcase their items, are not Premium members. Considering how much they spend a year on art, surely the $75 for the membership is the least they could do to help support the hobby we all love.
  4. Loved the 1st story arc to this series. Huge congrats on picking this up
  5. I heard that people that like to talk about the 1 photo that surfaced of the shadowy guy, behind the man who is "The UK's most Influential and connected art player", should be aware that he doesn't take kindly to even that much talk of him, and that they should be fearful of the repercussions. He is most definitely the most feared of all the Caballers, and all talk of him should stop immediately, as we risk retribution beyond measure if it continues. He has eyes and ears everywhere!
  6. I pissed myself laughing (the cabal will understand)
  7. Most if not all the people at that table could drop 6 figures on a piece of art, the question is how many of them actually have dropped 6 figures on a piece of art? In my opinion there are no more than 10 whales in this industry that can and do regularly spend 6 figures on artwork (not including dealers). I may be wrong, and no doubt Gene will correct me, but i believe that the majority of high rollers sitting around that table, would only pay a six figure amount on a piece of art if it was something they really really wanted, and as those kind of pieces dont come around too often, I would not classify them as whales using the definition set out by the OP -" I'm specifically referring to people that can and often do drop 6 figures on OA frequently (monthly or whenever they want"
  8. It was May 2007 when the European collector sold the complete 6 issues and covers. I was gutted i lost out to Eric then, and i'm still gutted 10 years on.
  9. I have been looking for this one for a really long while, with no luck. After having exhausted all normal avenues, i thought i would give the boards a try. Any information is welcome, even if it is to say that it is locked in a black hole collection. Thanks
