All or Nothing value
I just had a young man call me who wanted some AON ink, his name is Jay, hes a real nice guy, does some subcontract work for the company I manage.
Long story short hes heard of AON (as most have) and he wanted some Brandon Bond ink, well the waiting list, minimums and stuff intimidated him and he gave me a call.
Ive heard this before so Ill mention it here.
Somehow we got to get the word on the street the value of All or Nothing ink.
People have got to understand, Brandon being a worldwide recognized leader, mutlti award winning artist of the year, hes gonna charge more than the local street shop and its gonna take some time to get worked in...........However, you are going to wear AWARD WINNING AT EVERY SHOW INK
It is a fact that Brandon is not as expensive as some of his counterparts around the country.
I also brought to this mans attention that Sean Herman, Chris Vennekamp, Bryan Reynolds, Tim Orth, Dave Tedder and more and more work there TOO!
My point is, All or Nothing ink costs the same as most local street shops, why go anywhere else, but its seems alot of local folk do not know this, we need to get the word out, I dont want to see guys wearing anything less.
ps talked to Jay, said hes bringing ref drawings to Sean, good move

Re: All or Nothing value
the way I found out was I checked the web page out it was pretty straight forward on how much the artists charge, and then I went to AON and put down a deposit for Davemotherf@#kinTedder. I agree with you though, most people I talk to think AON is some crazy expensive shop.

Re: All or Nothing value
ya bro, this cat doesnt do alot of web browsing so he couldnt find out himself, he has local ink and is familiar with local prices, I guess the size of the empire blew his mind! He walked in to look over the portfolio books and inquired about Brandon and just got alittle freaked.
Im glad I got to set him straight, like you Ive talked to other folks who thought this good ink was untouchable, to the contrary, its as affordable as any local shop.
Im gonna get some serious AON ink next year (holidays off after my next sitting) and Ill tell you its money well spent, nothing but the best.

Re: All or Nothing value
Yeah i get the same thing, "oh you got that from AON, or Brandon Bond, I bet you paid ALOT for that" and i always tell everyone, they (AON) is no more expensive than anyother shop arround.... AND YOU GET A FREAKING SHOW STOPPING AWARD WINNING LIFE LONG MASTER PIECE! I just think that people in general need to realize that any piece from ALL OR NOTHING is NOT JUST ANOTHER TATTOO....

Re: All or Nothing value
I also hear this alot form some of homies from arround the way, "Man this dude wants to charge me $400 to finish my sleeves! And he'll come to my house. I think its a good deal!" and I am all, "well bro you have 6 tats on each arm, ive seen better jail house tattoos, and, well sure pay some guy $400 to throw some more green splotches arround your stuff... Or come to the best shop inthe universe and pay $400 to get that s&!t fixxxxed and get some real sleeves!"

Re: All or Nothing value
I have some Sean Herman pieces that I paid the same amount for other pieces that aren't even a fraction of the caliber. You pay for quality, but in this case the quality comes at a good price. I do not see anyone up at the shop being overpriced for their quality work, but that is just my opinion.

Re: All or Nothing value
there have also been plenty of times that the artist will keep going even though the money has ran out.... there is alot to be said about the overall greatness and dedication that radiates out of every single All Or Nothing tat too....

Re: All or Nothing value
There was a dude at the convention in kentucky that we were at that wanted to get Brandon to work on his back.. lets just say what he had on his back, we suggested to just let Brandon cover it up and do a full back piece on him.. The dude was all about booking his appointment.. especially after the way we talked up brandon's work and was showing him reference photos, etc.... he even talked to Brandon about it, gave him Matt's and shop contact info..etc..well i think he ended up talking to someone else at the convention because he just didnt want to wait..
tooooo bad.
