I think I save them out of a sense of guilt that HA went to the trouble of making them and sending them to me. So I shouldn't just throw them out, right? That’s how I think about it but then I watch an episode of “Hoarders” and I start second guessing myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got the glossy paper which I thought means they're not recyclable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 To be honest , I’m not sure. I didn’t realize that was a potential issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of these frazettas lately really are not very special. 250 or 300 might look cheap next to 5m for EQ but it’s still a 250 ask for a lower tier work Edited April 29, 2020 by Bronty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit larger even, my mistaken memory, only one is small. Too bad it's the "better" one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A third of the hammer goes to the Masonite company as well I assume it's the girl plus 22 years of age (67 vs 89).

exitmusicblue Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 GSXM #1 title splash stat around $7k... makes me wonder what's the priciest stat sale to date. HA's cheery description makes me chuckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming no flipping, I really wouldn't take it for more than 3 figures and toss it in the stacks. It's just stuff, not great. Stuff...the world is flooded with that.

I’d go more than that, even with no flipping, but even then it would be out of name recognition, which for me personally is the worst reason to buy art (unless flipping)! I’d generally rather not buy at all than buy solely due to name. Edited April 30, 2020 by Bronty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
