Want to Buy: Banksy Petrol Bomb, by jamieb on Oct 30, 2020 18:10:18 GMT 1, I don't have one but tried to buy one recently on here and secured one from a very trusted source. Once received it was clearly fake. The seller did refund me and I returned it.
The reason for this message is to try and help and find out if he is trying to sell it again.
I have lots of images of the fake and a real one.
It had the event flyer with it. I don't want to "out" them in case it was a genuine mistake, so if anyone offers you one with the initials N C then I'd be very cautious.

You should put up a picture of the fake one and the flyer

£50-£100 most people did not send the flyers as people were noT so obsessed With flyers and cards , came in a thin small tube , with tight plastic sleeve then about 5 -6 years ago there were a lot of fakes with the flyers on eBay around £150 Obviously as they had the cards most people would assume they were genuine

I don’t recall there being a tube. Mine were rolled up together and put in a clear plastic bag/sleeve.

Mine has a load of stuff from the day including Tesco stickers etc. Some people got badges. The problem is when people were buying for £300 there were no fakes around and now there are loads 😕

I’ve had multiple PMs from members who have bought from the person I was referring to and have also confirmed his username. I do not know if they are all fake. But it is of concern especially given his profession and standing.

If anyone has multiples of real ones, then surely they would easily spot a fake amongst them. Whoever has contacted you should send you an image of theirs, but I would be very surprised if the same person hasn't been knowingly selling fakes.

But it is of concern especially given his profession and standing. If any of the others are confirmed as fake then surely it should be put on here who it is and not kept private. I would think it is a longshot that a person who has sold you a fake has then sold multiples of the same print but they would all be legitimate.
