Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by ©hief' on Jul 9, 2007 16:53:42 GMT 1, I'm sure I've seen it before as well. I remember wondering why his no. 30 has a stamp when my no. 4* doesn't. Just because it's been on before doesn't mean it's dodgy, previous sale could have fallen through etc.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by notitle on Jul 9, 2007 17:40:07 GMT 1, the stamps are all over the place with these. i wouldn't let that put you off, but do probe the seller for more information.
the image looks familiar to me too.

Good detective work.
How odd, three completed sales no feedback, each item sold (or selling) twice.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by mickg on Jul 9, 2007 19:50:08 GMT 1, I was after the WSM first time round & was offered a Second Chance, told I could outbid the winner after the auction, the works. I think there is also a third listing on this one.
There is def another listing on this GWB but I don't have the number.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by zippyblip on Jul 10, 2007 10:17:40 GMT 1, Guys- thanks very much for all the info- and great detective work. Think I will give it a wide berth as a result.
If it looks too good to be true, it is I guess......

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by phat on Jul 12, 2007 8:44:22 GMT 1, I have read all your posts above & I was watching this print as you do....(also cos its my fav print!) just to see what price it would get NO ONE BID ON IT!!! hmmmm i wonder why? is it a fake and you all know it? , also because the seller has no history or feedback???
There is one unsigned one ebay for just over £2.5k (granted it has no bids yet) so this had to be a fake right? other wise it would have been bid on but not even 1 bid FOR A BANKSY GIRL WITH BALLON!!! 
Can you see i'm trying to convince myself that it was obviously an offer too good to be true....(please people say it was and put me out of my misery  )

Off the back of all the top detective work here, I pushed the seller for info, initially he sent me all the PoW details etc, so I thought maybe we were being a bit harsh.
I then asked him directly why the same item had been previously listed and sent him the link. No reply, and the item was then pulled off eBay as it was 'lost or broken'. 
Yep -was too good to be true, and again thanks to all for the good intel that got it pulled - I nearly fell for it.
As to the current GWB on eBay- the lack of feedback puts me off, combined with the high starting price. I think you can only get away with that if you've got a rock solid eBay seller record......
The search continues.. ;D

AND as you say thwaites, why so much talk about a broken frame? if all this was real I'd be concerned that the breaking of the frame could have caused damage to the print.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by theministerofsound on Feb 1, 2007 2:26:24 GMT 1, I'm looking for a Girl With Red Balloon. I'm thinking unsigned as I don't have a spare lung to sell, only a kidney.
Any help in locating one would be greatly appreciated.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by theministerofsound on Feb 1, 2007 4:43:03 GMT 1, I saw that one. The guy doesn't have the receipt and couldn't tell me whether or not it was dry mounted. Not being able to tell whether or not it is dry mounted is definitely an issue for me.
And if you are going to bid on it, I certainly don't want to raise the price on you ;D

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by dwight on Feb 3, 2007 19:15:38 GMT 1, yeah, that's a pretty important detail... Looks like it probably wasn't dry mounted because of the mat. Also, I wonder how the seller was going to ship it if it was dry mounted...
Unfortunately I'm in a battle with DHL about a damaged print so there's a lot of my money tied up there...couldn't bid on it.
(one less copy of love is in the air around now.)
