I won a lottery from Pictures On Walls (a british art gallery) to be able to buy a signed Banksy print. (see link below)

So now i won the lottery and have 48 hours to pay for the print. With the Pound/Dollar conversion... the print will cost me $800 USD.

IS that a fair deal for a Banksy or over priced? I am not that familiar with art value.

I usually only buy the $50 Shepard Fairey prints... so $800 is an entirely new price point for me.

Thanks

Banksy certainly gets premium prices these days, so $800 is not entirely out of line. I think it is an extremely lazy piece though.
