[sickler]

The frame and the cost of framing has to be at LEAST $150


Is the LITHO that is limited to 350 pieces worth $350?


Know it's close to being, but if not, still a beauitoful piece and can sell at anytime for at least $480

You paid $540 for it

That's -EV

Just stating facts. The guy is a mere shadow of himself on the forums compared to 7-10 years ago. The kid out of wedlock doesn't seem to have a strong support system.

Fish, I believe you purchased this piece of artwork but I also believe you didn't quite know the value of it beforehand. You were gambling and it could come back to bite you!

[Roxxyfish]

540$ ? not bad for a replica of a replica

[Extra Innings]

Really?

Speak to me

Do a quick search. 3 grand is average. I mean even the least popular Thomas Kinkade litho's go for well over 500, Salvador Dali is a legend.

[Fishhead]

Think so extra innings....think it's fair value is around 1,000

[eidolon]

[wantitall4moi]

You could get one off barry chappell for 150 bux.

[Fishhead]

So there are 350 copies of this?

Yes

#25/350.........1980




Came with two COA's and as mentioned earlier, in a manificant frame which alone had to cost $160+....................

Looking around the internet, see many copies selling anywhere from $1,000-$7,600 UNframed...........listed in the DALI price guide at $6600..........

Feel I got a decent buy at $535.............should take it down to PAWN STARS.

[jjgold]

Fishhead you going to sell it??

Whats your next move??

Fishhead you going to sell it??

Whats your next move??

Hanging it on stairway wall..................wife says she likes it very much.

Our neighbors are VERY high end art salesman at a gallary in the forum shoppes at Ceasers...........will have them critique the piece later, even though this is a very, very low end piece by their standards.

[DOMINATER]

fish you properly got a lithograph for 500 dollars originals Dali s are going for 75000 dollars and up interestingly Dali is believed to be the next big thing in the art world, I have several works of art valued well into , well nevermind, one was a gift, given to me for doing something for someone and giving them 20 years of their life back. The work is from a southwest painter in the early 20th century its value is at least 90000 dollars, forget gambling the real hustle is in antiques and artwork lets say fishead you just said bingo.

[caseyman011]

Who is Salvadar Dali? Salvador's alter-ego whose paintings go for significantly less money?

[mrmarket]

Dali cranked out lots of art of dubious quality towards the end of life because his family forced him to do so for profit. If it's a later quality piece you probably paid market value for it on top of buyers commission.

[DrIn$entive]

I originally thought he meant a Salvadorian deli

Done a little wheeling in the art market in the past..........made a few bucks.


This piece is simply a litho limited to 350 pieces......................most gallaries have it listed between $1400-$5500(WAY TO MUCH).................not to worried about making a profit at a later date on my small $535 investment.....................some fool out there will give me at least $600 for it.

[LVHerbie]

Fishhead my 6 year old niece finished the Dali you commissioned last week... If we don't receive payment in the next couple days we are turning this over to CompaqDikk for collections...

Art is in the shitter. Guys can ASK any price they want, people are going to be buying at 10-15% of retail. $540 is probably on the high side. If youre at an auction and dont know anything about art and you win something, chances are very high you over paid. If it is strictly an art auction the chances are 100% that you overpaid. That's common sense. If guys are there to buy art, especially to re-sell and youre winning auctions against them youre not going to make a profit.

Think I will be fine as far as making a profit, plus the piece looks nice in our stairway for now................win-win.

Will keep the forum informed if and when I do sell the piece................

[Dirty Sanchez]

It's a Print obviously...probably a fake...originals aren't afforded by dumpster divers

The value depends on the condition, the medium and the subject.

Oil paintings will sell for millions.

Watercolors and Drawings: $100k if you're lucky

Prints (authentic) $500-$20k

One sold for 275 last Spring.

if you are gong to keep it then it is worth what it is worth to you. Thats how it is with everything.

He hasnt been dead long enough for it to be really valuable. Plus that painting isnt all that old either.

Wanti, I've purchased many paintings at auction and overall made a profit on 80% or so............and the one's I have not made a profit on have lost me very little money.


Been attending auctions all my adult life..............................

Did research before purchasing/bidding on the current DALI just purchased......... top price was going to be $600 going in.........so very confortable with the final $535 total price paid.

The upside on a limited edtion hand signed Dali in a $160+ frame with two reputable COA's at $535 is way above the downside..........................
