    We were collectively hoping you would sir. You are a fountain of knowledge and it would be lovely to ask you some questions!

    Chard guy ( @LawrenceChard ) would you be interested in a Q and A thread? You probably have more knowledge that all of us. It’s very interesting hearing from the owner of one of the biggest/best dealers in the uk

    If you're not interested in art and don't have much knowledge of the industry I'd say you'd be better using your time to focus on what you do know, especially in the current climate. Having gone through 2008 the next few years is likely to be tough for 90% of the art industry. There will be opportunities in the flipping game if that's what you're into but alot less than the previous years, even in the urban art print release game as alot of end buyers of that market will have alot less disposable income, you'll need to be much more selective on which artists to focus on. On the plus side if you're cash rich theres likely to be alot of opportunities to buy good work at lower prices with volume needing to sell quick. It took a year or so last time around then a flood of work hit the market. My advice is if you're thinking you'll be selling in the next 6-12months nows probably a better time if you can get a decent price, I wouldn't sit back too long to see how it's going to unfold. If you sell now you could still get a good price, if you wait you'll either get a good price as before or loose a chunk/struggle to sell, it's unlikely much will be going up so holding on too long has negative possibilities but no real plus marks. Hopefully it'll all be fine and dandy though 😀

    Also needs a bit of knowledge about what is hot and what is not. I have a small urban art collection. I will possibly sell a small % of it over the coming months to buy more gold.

    Very true, I love both and I'm certain the banksquiat was created with respect and a bowed head but with typical Banksy edge, I'm sure JMB would have a giggle looking down.

    Fortunately, I like both artists..so can forgive Banksy for ‘seeking inspiration’ in the works of others!..after the shredder stunt at auction, how can you not admire the man!

    Interesting thread for me @mr-dead I used to be a member on uaa many moons ago when alot of the old heads like mikeydread, fragilefragile etc where around. Art's how I pay my way but I stick to what I know, whenever I buy art I've no knowledge in I tend to take a hit, not a problem if you like the piece but not so good if you don't! The print release markets very different nowadays, in the old days of picturesonwalls(not Inc Banksy obvs as its a breed of its own) it was in at its heights. There's certainly deals to be done. Take your time and look at the history/progression/hype of the Artist though, whether they've exploded in a short time or risen up. There's alot of babies to held in the artworld so to speak.
