Only positive about this is that the tenners are not restocked 🙈

Couple of pallets of tenners found at back of the warehouse

looking at the search results it seems like some people were right about this...he sought the reach of some lesser known galleries to make initial sales then once the foundation was set he just watered it... a true example of "you do the hardwork, i just help you along"..in the end it is a business for both parties, congrats on the come up.

He will run out of people that want the buy the tenners before he runs out of tenners

Well, if as thought, he will never run out as he has the ability to print them and authenticate them, so it's as you say, an open edition until everyone has caught on...

Yeah I had an ad on Instagram for a gallery selling the tenners too

😆! me too! i think a gallery that starts with A, and the other one mentioned here is bottlneck..i'm not sure if it's a good thing for these galleries reputation that they sold these, looks like they knew it was a cash grab, from the looks of it some people on here knew this from the get go

Imagine all the money - since his book - that Laz are making here !
1250 £ thousands of tenners !
It’s the “ errods “ ( hi AP ! ) Laz sales !
I think that He knows that art market will live hard moments so he sells what hi is founding in his bunker !
1250 Quids is a bit expensive, no ? But I would like to get one too - mine has no provenance.
Anyway sont dream about tenners, even in 20 years, the value will not grow that much, at the contrary maybe.
Look, you can find signed prints as Sale Ends limited at 500, for 17/19 pounds just now.
Tenners are great of course, but it’s still ( shipping included 😅) a kind of tats, a must have.
So in conclusion, yes they are very expensive.

Andipa which I think is the only other place that sold them.


I mean we managed to sell 85% of our allocation at $900 with a frame. Now they go for around $1500 so I think the people that did manage to get in at that price are happy. 

And no we didn't know Laz would be selling his collection. He didn't mention it at the weekly BNG/LAZ sleepover. We saw a fun opportunity for something that we personally love and we did it and people enjoyed it.  Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Happy with mine. Looks great In the frame

[Forbidden Love]

Who’s is fake? Sorry didn’t understand.

[snoozy]

The same can be said that, for example, you have a GWRB from release, and now it's worth 200k, just put a fake image up looks same, which is what you want, put the proper one in storage as it's getting scary having it hanging on the wall now.
Image is everything (Well, not for investors)

I’m just saying

Not that yours is

But a fake would look good in a frame too
What’s to tell the difference in a frame

Yes maybe. But that’s the same with most things but for people with serious collections or people with ocd...they will most likely only be satisfied with the real thing.

I was only stating that my one looks great frame, because I got it from bottleneck. They all came framed and I was just telling them they looked great.

If I had a fake one and it looked good enough and I knew it was fake, I wouldn’t be happy as my OCD would kick in telling me it wasn’t genuine.

Anyway not sure what the fake question was to do with my post about the frame..

[Forbidden Love]

I also want to add I think there are ways to tell if they are not genuine. The bottleneck ones come with a COA from laz also.

This is one of the bottleneck gallery tenner, right?

Looking to sell my Banksy Captured - Black Edition. Unread, please message me with an offer

[brycepen]

Alright, I had to report that my “balloon fight” photo print finally arrived a few days ago and I am happy with the packaging and image. I also appreciate that it’s about standard frame sizing so I won’t have to pay for custom framing. I don’t regret my purchase.

Anyone else waiting on news, a book or a refund from [e-mail]
Anyone have any tips on how to inspire them to actually respond to emails?

[avec art]

I waited a month with no response, so I emailed them. Someone apologised and mentioned the corono virus affecting their team, and assured me my book would be sent this week. Well since that reply I've heard nothing and I'm back in the dark.

I have the same problem, I‘m waiting for a mail reply since 30.06.2020.
I ordered in two orders a tenner, one Tenner reached me, the other envelope was empty... I sent them pictures etc. and got a reply they will check it and since that, I‘m waiting....

Good luck, you're certainly not on your own. I'm intrigued to know what photo's you sent to prove nothing was in the envelope when it arrived.

[iamzero]

I’m waiting until The Works get them in.

Is anyone really that surprised that he took $1,500 from someone, sent an empty envelope and never responded??? Seems about par for the course with this guy. Best of luck to you. You’ll have better luck with your bank than ever getting a response from Laz. If you haven’t called them yet I would do so immediately.

It is really annoying to be honest to deal with such people... He is doing a lot of money with this Tenners and Books, so I think everybody can expect to get his orders.
You are right, I think also that they will not reply to me or even refund myself. I paid with credit card so I think the best way is to contact them and ask to refund me the amount.

I would do so immediately. They have proven time and again that he just isn’t capable of even finding a team willing to handle thes**t he gets them into. I had the same thing happen with my first edition. Took months for a response, they finally told me they screwed up and would get a book out that week and then nothing. Never got a book or a refund and finally just gave up and called the bank. There’s no way I’d be patient with him at this point and I’m not in the business of giving failed recovering drug addicts a $1,500 loan.

You are right, I will do the claim with the bankers today and attach the mail conversation between us ( I believe 20 mails from my side and two from Laz Team).

Incredible how somebody is treating the people which are spending a lot of money for his stuff.

[avec art]

I really don't understand this. He's knows this is not how to conduct business, it's not right to treat his customers with contempt in this way.

Ive always wondered why banksy split from him...

Did any who purchased 2 books and got charged £100 postage ever get refunded on the postage

You had to pay postage? That is funny, because I didn’t have to pay postage on my orders, but only received 3 out of 4 complete....

I paid a lot less but they still have them up:
