Banksy Welcome Mat, by hops on Feb 26, 2020 23:14:00 GMT 1, Does anyone remember the first Walled Off Hotel box set listed on eBay? Sold for either 9k or 10k if I recall. A week later they were $1750. Few weeks after under 1k. Is that about right? How much do they sell for now? A wall section sold in Heritage auctions for $13,000 + fees $16,250. Then the same one sold again by the buyer a few months ago for $1,850 Oh my! Thatโs a tough one to explain to the wife... Or, for the wife to explain to the husband.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by carly on Feb 26, 2020 23:24:16 GMT 1, Definitely a nicer vibe feeling about it this time around(so far). People buying into something that they know what they are going to get. No speculations, love it... I completely agree! ย Glad that Love Welcomes has confirmed these are unlimited and future batches are being released soon for others. ย 500 released this week and the next batch is coming soon people be patient and donโt get fooled. โบ๏ธ
Where have they confirmed they are unlimited Iโve looked on insta but I canโt find it? Also I canโt find the mat page on their site anymore

The site is plastered in banksy references. You can't miss it.

The word unlimited has never left their mouth.

Iโm talking about the page describing the Mat where it was for sale and then had the sold out icon. If you go to collaborations Banksy it just loops you back to the home page.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by jonvespa on Feb 27, 2020 0:06:39 GMT 1, I sincerely hope that everyone here has had a thought as to where these mats are coming from and the actual significance behind them. Although we all want a Banksy that's obtainable (and affordable), this is not one we want to be created in perpetuity...
In 2016, I volunteered for a month at the Ritsona camp in Greece. During that month, I watched the residents move from tents to " boxes" (sort of like production trailers that were donated by the Arab Emirates), created a preschool program, and made lifelong friends (residents and other volunteers alike). I subsequently ran my own little NGO (Non Government Organization) paying for a bus to transport residents from the camp to the city every week to do their grocery shopping. This just ended do to an influx of new residents to the camp and the inability to transport everyone. Since my original volunteer work, I've gone back to visit with refugees five times since (twice in Greece and three times in Germany). I still talk to the kids from the camp on the daily. It's the first message I send (or receive) every morning...
I am not making you aware of this for any other reason than to encourage you to do the same in some capacity (if you aren't already).
If you want to see where these life vests are really coming from, go be a lookout for Lighthouse Relief in Lesvos: www.lighthouserelief.org. The rafts are still coming on the daily. People are still dying.
If you cannot take time off to head to another Country, then see what you can do in your own backyard.
What Banksy and Love Welcomes are doing is so great. Let's just not lose insight as to the real issues behind these mats are.
Just food for thought.
Jon

Perhaps number of weeks ago would give us an indication if they preferenced older signups.
Thanks!

what if they're truly unlimited?? they would have to sell way below cost to get rid of them... because most folks would rather buy from source to support the charity.
then again - if they give up this opportunity... the next batch might be the last!
At ยฃ500 a pop - these are high stakes, doormat shaped, casino chips!!
