Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by sufsean on Sept 16, 2017 16:44:22 GMT 1, Is the gift store one per person? Yes
Did you go? Could you buy one of everything? Do you buy, put in your luggage and just take home? Couldn't someone just theoretically buy one, come back a few hours later and buy another?

you can buy whatever you want, go outside buy a false beard (these are readily available so woman can attend the local stonings) go back to the gift shop c/w new beard and fill ur boots.

So my question is why aren't people doing that? Are there quantity issues when you're actually there? Customs issues bring these homes? What would be the biggest potential risk- flying there with a huge bag- filling up at the gift store for an entire day and coming back?

Because maybe on the whole people are better human beings than you think and actually are honest rather than gaming the system. I think I'd feel more than a bit of guilt doing that type of thing.

Did you read Eschiffs post on the hotel thread from a few hours back regards availability ?
Sounds like you are weighing up a trip with a couple of empty suitcases.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by Rouen Cathedral on Sept 16, 2017 17:18:48 GMT 1, Is no one going to explain 'American sneaker boy'. Lots of member`s on ebeans appear to of moved from buying/selling "sneakers" to buying/selling art - they have figured out that the bots they used to pick up the latest pair of "Yeezy`s" can also be used to obtain in demand prints and make more money. Personally find the amount of gif`s, acronyms and emoji`s used on ebeans all very confusing - perhaps that`s just my age!
Perfect thanks!

Anyone been in contact with Pest Control about whether they'd even authenticate the Box Set or any of the other stuff on sale? |

Does anyone have any concrete info on availability? For anyone looking to book a trip, it's hard to imagine not being at least partially motivated to bring something back for your wall...

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by ogmystery1 on Sept 16, 2017 18:13:54 GMT 1, Anyone spending £7k on this is a bloody moron. You could literally buy an unsigned/numbered print for that price. So with that logic in place, are we suppose to say that Flags, TM, or any other unsigned is now worth £10k+
As for availability, these are an open edition/unsigned/un-numbered.
I'm pretty sure that one on eBay is being shill bid by the poster.

Agreed, the seller or sellers of the same item who have an active interest in the final selling price of these are shilling this one right up. 700 would be more like it, not 7000!

Its not at all hard to imagine. Most folks went long before anything other than a tshirt or a postcard were available. Plenty others rebooked to visit long before any new gifts were put up for sale.
What isnt hard to imagine is that someone who regularly re-sells prints on here being motivated to visit by the possibility of buying a print.

You can add that is is the easiest Banksy to forge...buy 1 sell 15 :-)
It is a glorified poster and should be treated as such

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by met on Sept 16, 2017 20:09:28 GMT 1, 6,200 now! Time to get that trip booked me thinks. Has there been a mass exodus from expressobeans? The whole tone of this forum has changed recently. No posts about street art. Not a great deal about shows or events. It's just sales and bitchyness. I've enjoyed myself here over the last decade. Not so much now. Couldn't agree more, the "invasion" of the American "sneaker" boys has only had a detrimental effect on here - real shame!!
Were these written in a knowing manner, to be read together for humorous effect?

Is it fair though to focus only on Expresso Beans?
What about long-term members of this forum? The ones who, while commenting about the price increases of the eBay auction, sound like they're about to have an orgasm?
An example to illustrate: "1550 BSP with 4 days to go - where this print with stop nobody knows !!!!!!"

As usual, a fair point, well made. I've made my despair at posts hyping the value of prints well known. My post last night was born out of fustration, and was not, I'm afraid, one upon which I took a great deal of care when writing.

I would have thought that the opposite was true.
Right after release people pay a premium to get what they want.
The value settles down over time, and is usually vastly less than the price immediately after release. That's why the flippers are so quick to sell. Of course, quality pieces may then rise again with time, as an artist's popularity rises, and so demand increases.
I would not take unverified sales prices right after a release as an indication of true value.
