Thinker Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) Hello there. I am hoping to find someone, probably a Circa Survive fan, that may have acquired a couple of Esao Andrews prints that were sold around 2007 - 2008. The prints would be Juturna, On letting Go, and The Thinker. I am willing to pay a hundreds or thousands of dollars for them depending on condition. If you have acquired one of these prints back then and still have them and want to make a lot of money let me know Thanks Edited June 10, 2020 by Thinker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 These prints are very limited and sell for thousands (not hundreds). For instance the last recorded Thinker sold for $1350 and that was 3 years ago.....would bet closer to $2k now. https://expressobeans.com/members/detail.php/251408/history beta114 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinker Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 Thank you. Yes I am completely aware of how much they go for and am more than happy to pay a fair price. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 My two recommendations then would be: 1. Put a post on Expressobeans, as there is recorded owners of these prints there. 2. Be sure to post how much you are offering(exactly) saying you are willing to pay "a hundreds of dollars" for items worth thousands is probably not going to get many responses. Remember most of these prints are runs of 30-ish so if you are going to pry them out of an owners hands you want to have a good enough bribe ready to go!

Thinker Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 Thank you. Will all due respect, I appreciate your help but I prefer to do this the way I am doing it. I am aware of expressobeans. You logic in your pricing is your opinion. Just because it was sold once in 2017 for 1350 does not make it "worth" $2k in 2020. It does not even make it "worth" $1350 in 2017. Juturna most recent recorded sale is $52 in 2010. Surely that doesn't mean it is worth only $852 in 2020. I agree these prints are collectively worth "Thousands" - but individually they are worth "Hundreds" -- Maybe it is just a difference in semantics, I didn't expect someone to harp on that part of my post as much as you did. ex: $1300 is hundreds. $2300 warrants "thousands". In my eyes, whether literally accurate or not I didn't give it much thought when typing. I've editing the post for semantics. I do appreciate your recommendation but I prefer to first start a conversation with someone and gain an understanding of the condition of the print and the way it has been stored before making an offer to them. Appreciate your posts though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Good luck on your search. I know I would gladly pay $1000 for any one of those prints.....but sadly in this market thats not enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Display Name Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I have a one of a kind Esao Andrews painting on wood if you are still looking for something unique. It’s is a 1:1, I watched him paint it and took it home that day. It’s 4’x4’ on wood. It’s beautiful and can provide photos if you’re interested in seeing it.
