Dr. Balls Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 My first experience was the "unpublished prelims" episode which was not terribly exciting. I'm interested to watch this as I assume they will have more regular-type stuff tonight. Anyone else watching? romitaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_K Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Watched it for the first time in a few weeks. I'm not watching the recap. Rick2you2 and romitaman 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Balls Posted October 20, 2022 Author Share Posted October 20, 2022 I've spent most of the hour trying to identify that Al Rio Lady Death piece. Cannot find it. romitaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtlevy1 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Pretty much always watch it as I bought a few pieces earlier in the series Dr. Balls and romitaman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBerman Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I watch, but like many I'm saving up for the several auctions this month and next. taro90, romitaman and Dr. Balls 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyCollector Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 It seems as if the show has more unpublished pieces/prelims/recreations than it did in the past romitaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If their source collected a lot of sketches, that's what you'll see on DD in the next month. Also, depending on how far in advance they plan out DD, the dealers probably save up a lot of unpublished and/or lower priced art for those "$1000 or less" shows. I think the number of live viewers is significantly higher for those shows. In general, they seem to have a lot of restraint in not listing art for sale on their websites so they can show it on DD (where they could end up selling for less). romitaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost as if the sub-$1000 range has moved past that price range, and the preliminary art is filling the gap. I took a flier on the Lady Death piece - I think it's a pretty good Al Rio piece with a nice background, but I am hoping that with Tie Alexander's inks and the timeframe it was drawn (2001) when they were working together on a few other things - that it means that is a published piece, lost inside some Lady Death pinup book. I'll have some fun doing detective work on it, and if it's just a commission - well, that's cool too! romitaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is interesting is when they lower a price during the recap, and the piece does not sell, it goes up (on both sites) for the original ask. If you see a page posted recently that you like, it pays to review the show, see if it was offered, and then make an offer based on the recap price.

Brian Peck Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I got busy at work and missed it. Scrubbed thru the video after, was interested in the Ramona Fradon B&B recreation cover but see it sold. romitaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flipside of that, I also think the dealers might be open to deeper discounted offers live on Dueling Dealers than they are through their respective sites. romitaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to tell. If I were them, I would mark up everything 20% on the livecast in case someone feels a sense of urgency to buy. Then discount it back 10% on the replay if no one takes it in the initial offering. romitaman and Sideshow Bob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They discount better offline... just one example, but a piece was offered for 2000... recap price was 1600 but no takers... listed on site at 2000, contacted the dealer a few days later and bought it for 1500... good for me but also good for dealer b/c it appears publicly as though the sale was at 2000 Edited October 21, 2022 by KirbyCollector Dr. Balls and romitaman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
