I bought a couple 'cos they were dirt cheap. Didn't for a minute believe that they would be authorised. Just bought them because I could never afford an original. As Banksy would say though. "I can't believe you morons actually buy this shit".... thinking it was legit.

Just to mess with your heads even more I heard next week HMV are getting in a red version........

from groove distribution
We apologize for any inconvenience in advance, as we had anticipated the
high demand for the Dirty Funker records with Banksy artwork would have
ebbed considerably after the initial mania. However, that has not been the
case, as we have had a huge run on overseas orders again. Because of the
abnormally high continuing demand for this record, we will be limiting this
record ONLY to our U.S. customers with U.S. billing addresses. All non-U.S.
orders will be deleted on our website. Nothing has been charged to the
credit cards of customers yet, so there will be no need for any credit card
refunds

I haven't been following this thread, but "Caveat Emptor"...Dirty Funker, Juno or anyone else never mentioned that this was an official Banksy release. Take it on the chin and move along.

[robo]

I bought the brown sleeve to put on my wall... and now that i know it may not be official... Its still going on my wall

If you were stupid enough to think these records were an official release from Banksy and wasted good money on them, then you only have yourself to blame. I look forward to seeing you on Watchdog LOL

Are you for real??

People bought this record because they liked the image not because they might have been hand finished and signed by banksy.

Are you upset because your £7 record is worth litle more than the sleeve its printed on. Move on.

[funster]

This is funny ;D I bought one for £6.99 because I really like the image and despite knowing I could print it off myself I couldn't be asked to go to the hassle of finding the image, getting the paper, cutting it to the right size etc etc. If people have bought these expecting to see them in Bonhams in a few years time then thats just nuts

[azzrat]

oh dear , what have i started.!
Can we end this please.ok.......................like i said in the very beginning...i saw these advertised as official at HMV HTFR and JUNO...............couldnt get one..saw them on ebay , and bought them to frame and 2 to give as presents.................not to make £££...........so please stop having a go.i am annoyed, have i not the right to be annoyed about being RIPPED OFF..............how would u feel if u hadnt been a member of this forum and this happened to you.............most of you seem to have known about this , i didnt................and for that all i get is rude remarks, well thanks pals.!

[alsbabar]

assrat - best to keep your mouth shut, and let it blow over

i would take the hit for you, and deflect this onto me, but its nice to have some peace for change

[sahoria]

hello,

as you said you got for presents and sure alot of others are little annoyed with everyone saying it was official even though it wasnt...got this from htfr -

Dear Customer, Thanks for your email. This is 100% authorised. When the stock came there wasa big poster size print that gave all the info on the pressings, it had 3pictures of the different coloured vinyl. Each vinyl has a sticker that statesits official Banksy art work. Dirty Funker has had Banksy artwork on previousvinyl sleeves. I dont know what else there is to say.

truth happy it is over... get to place on wall and be happy with them... id say dont take personally what people have said here it is just i am sure they have seen this happen so many times on the forum they get tired of it. but as someone said nearly everyone has got burned before when buying artwork and live and learn is good advice.. take care and sure they will make great presents...s

[azzrat]

thanks alsbabar........................i did on page 3 i think.but people keep, posting

[azzrat]

ty sahoria...........nice reply.........

[ctc2]

I am a little irked that these turned out to be unofficial. I bought them only because they were official and as such kind of thought they would be neat to have for the price. I did not have big $'s in my eyes. Just thought it was a neat concept. Now that I find out that they are no more than those A3's on ebay, I wish I had just saved my money. This fourm did create a frenzy which I think enabled this whole scheme to go down. Don't know what you do about it.

[Avian Security]

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Dirty Funker failed to make the charts, despite legions of douchebags buying their record and never playing it.
