OMG! Never Seen Before Offer Kicks Off The Holiday Shopping Season

Nov. 12, 2010 - PRLog -- Fine art collector edition prints and books by acclaimed master photographer Nicholas A. Price are flying off the shelves as customers around the world take advantage of the never-seen-before OMG! Buy One Get One Free (OMG! BOGOF) offer being made available only at http://www.OfficialGiftStore.com

The online store founded in 2000 by internet investor and OfficialGiftStore.com co-founder Mike Jones, who has an exclusive online deal to sell Price's select works under a rigid licensing agreement with Price and the Nicholas Price Family Trust.

In order to secure the lucrative deal, Jones had to ensure Price that the integrity of Price's work and value in the marketplace established for more than 15 years, continued and that Jones would encourage and attract new global collectors whilst maintaining the same level integrity and exclusivity as Price's custom and short run edition photographs.

Jones attracted by this challenge and the challenge of making sales in such a bleak economy, he aggressively pursued the agreement.

To get around the high sales cost of a Nicholas Price Print which sells upwards of $3,500, Jones acquired print editions of up to 500 issues for select titles from the Price archives. In the photography market, the higher the print run the lower the cost. Jones was then able to offer prices that started from $395 (in-line with the collector’s market) for the new or general collector, up to $19,000 price tag for the top-end collectors, Doing the same with general edition copies of the fine art books with prices starting at $95, allowing the museum style and quality store to be an attractive place for all kinds of collectors and enthusiasts of both art and photography.

Nicholas Price Fine Art Photography has become a cultural powerhouse with a commercial edge. Due to his ethos of individuality, excellence, human stories, independence, and a sense of history, the work of Nicholas A. Price has long since become highly coveted among private collectors and established institutions alike. Not only is this true for his fine art photographic prints, but today many of this photographer's books have reached "must-have" status on the collecting market as well.

As such, many of the book & print sets are exclusive to this store and cannot be found anywhere else.

Some of Price's most iconic works are available in the store including Cleared Hot!, which the first edition collection was recently acquired by the Library of Congress in its entirety.

"The edition we are offering of Cleared Hot! is the 60th Anniversary Edition of which only 6 key photographs from the collection have been made available in an edition of 60 prints each", says Jones, who is enthusiastic about Price and the online store.
"I absolutely love Price's work and the response has been fantastic generally, but  since we were allowed to offer the BOGOF promo to kick off the Holiday Season, which has never been offered before, we have just been inundated with sales and inquiries from around the world, which is just fantastic" he says.

Other collections include Nicholas Price's work on the western United States, Playground of The Gods, the Hoover Dam, his creative Trick Trunk Collection,  and his critically acclaimed Historic Icons nude collection.

For the very high end collector, Jones acquired the  single luxury edition of Historic Icons Male Nudes Boxed Set. Features of this boxed set include: Six single edition 11x14 Fiber Prints, Custom printed by Price, it is signed and numbered and bears the artist's official seal . Comes with a certificate of authenticity for insurance and verification purposes and a detailed companion booklet of the collection and set all beautifully presented in a museum case. Having seen the collection first hand, you get the sense; "This is something very special."

"I couldn't believe I actually got a hold of this particular collection" gushes Jones. "Mr. Price is very particular about this rare edition works, which only his top clients are allowed to ever acquire from him directly, but I convinced him that we needed to appeal to the ultimate collector as well as the beginning collector, so he agreed" says Jones
The price of the Historic Icons The Male Nude Luxury Edition Boxed Set is priced just under $20,000.

Other kind of customers include corporate collectors, interior designers, architects, developers who are looking for that special something for a business or custom home client.

Another unique customer is the tourist to the USA. Working with Grace Price, Price's agent and President of Nicholas Price Group of Companies, she secured several partnerships with clients who could benefit from sales of particular collections as part of their overall fundraising efforts.
For example, Nevada State Parks benefit from a percentage of the proceeds of any sales made of the critically acclaimed collection, Playground of The Gods. In these tough times, innovative sources of revenue are critical to the organization.

As an online marketplace OfficialGiftStore.com is primly positioned to offer complete e-commerce services to sell and market framed prints, merchandise and business opportunities created from the fine art photography of artist Nicholas A. Price.
