Oh. prolly more....for some of the huge ones...the art market is crazy...to buy at that level is just high stakes gambling really I think once it is picked up into culture...nice if you have that cash but you had better have an advisor along with you...a belgian guy I am buddies with...luc tuymans... sells stuff for pretty much 3 quarters of a million new...and that's a deal in terms of his prices shooting up...I remember his first show...stuff costed about 500 bucks! Nice to see someone out here who knows who pettibon and burden are! Pretty easy to pick on art coming from a bike forum where we all pretty much have rich blood via prices of decent bikes...
