Christies: Banksy & 21st Century Editions online auction, by JFCC on Mar 3, 2022 11:23:56 GMT 1, It's a really well constructed catalogue, unlike the Bonhams one today which has too many items most of which is pretty random!
However, I would probably have thought that the CYW Gold VIP, CYW, signed GWB, Banksquiat and CWSB would have been better in a higher value auction? Personally I'd have thought those are going to be so far ahead of the other items in value that they will be held back by the comparative lack of "money" in the room. GWB is likely to get to £0.5m where as some pieces will be £1-5k? Just a view!
It will also be interesting to see what Banksquait makes being sold with Pest Controls blessing!

The big Auction Houses only sell verified Banksy’s works and they note that it will be sold with a new COA from Pest Control.
On Banksquait they state it has been authenticated by PC but there will be a slight delay in receiving a COA for GDP items.

CYW Grey seems to be selling all up at between £120k-130k. So you’d probably get £100k back from an auction up to £110k privately. But who knows what will happen with this one!!!

Christies: Banksy & 21st Century Editions online auction, by amz on Mar 3, 2022 17:51:26 GMT 1, Forget the Banksys. The highlight for me is the Tunji Adeniyi-Jones piece. I am excited for the Annan Affotey Daizy piece- his first auction item. I am hoping he will achieve much higher than the suggested price. www.phillips.com/auctions/auction/UK010222
Same really nice piece and a great artist. Going to do very well in 2022 I think. Last primary price of og’s I saw was around £20k and absolutely flew

Christies: Banksy & 21st Century Editions online auction, by STP on Mar 4, 2022 10:34:17 GMT 1, Love that Morons (outside the edition). Says a gift, would this have a PC? Spend your money on an editioned example This impression of Morons is 'outside of the edition' of approximately thirty artist's proofs, which features different detailing around the canvas and on some of the figures. These 'brushwork' elements were applied using an alternate screen in the screenprinting process, that was not used in the published edition.
The small edition of artist's proofs were printed in varying colourways, and this impression outside of the edition has a subtly different warm brown colour scheme to the sepia tones used in the main edition.
This lot is offered with the new Certificate of Authenticity from Pest Control.

Looks like the auctioneer, the other staff members, and all of the attendees decided to take part in a very civilised dirty protest.
They may have been inspired by the scatological theme of the painting for sale.

Various Shrigley pieces in this sale too, his "You Will Not Stop Me from Singing My Song" appears in this auction and then in another Christies sale too, March 9: www.christies.com/lot/lot-6361032

Christies: Banksy & 21st Century Editions online auction, by fuzzyduck121 on Mar 7, 2022 9:26:48 GMT 1, Updated wording on the Banksquiat
“This lot has been authenticated by Pest Control. Please note there will be a slight delay from Pest Control in issuing the Certificate of Authenticity for works sold through Gross Domestic Product. The CoA will be sent to the buyer in due course.”
This does mean that it’s been sold at a major house with no COA in hand I assume this means that PC have guaranteed the authenticity with Christie’s but have advised that the cert will be forthcoming but they’ve OK’d the sale in essence. Interesting I assume they are still not finalised on the new wording for the Certs but I don’t think a Banksy has been sold without a physical certificate in recent times and just with some sort of agreement with PC has it ?

This is nothing new in this other than its a GDP piece of work and here is a little bit more of a delay.
The main Auction houses have very good relationships with Pest Control who fast track both the authentication and the certificate production, that said they still can take a couple of months to come through.
The key points from the statement are "authenticated" and "The CoA will be sent to the buyer in due course.” Clearly Pest Control are comfortable that suggested holding period for GDP pieces has expired.
The 4 Banksquaits and 3 Throwers sold by Tate Ward were not authenticated by Pest Control.

Those thrower purchasers must be a little nervous ?
As must TW be for underwriting the fallout from a lack of supply of the PC in due course

As must TW be for underwriting the fallout from a lack of supply of the PC in due course I would be very surprised if there was a problem as I doubt Pest Control would want to penalise individuals who purchased the items, I am sure they will just be less willing to help the Auction house in the future. Whichever way you look at it it's fairly disreputable behaviour from TW.
I would hazard a guess that TW are not underwriting the COA position as that would be a pretty big exposure unless they could pass it back to the buyer, who will probably have spent the money already!!

TW have indeed issued in writing guarantees to GDP item buyers that if the PC isn’t forthcoming within 2 years of their purchase they will personally refund the purchase price plus expenses

Thanks for that update, if they have then that’s pretty magnanimous of them. There’s is no more they could possibly do, assuming they’ve seen all the ownership audit trail and invoices etc. Certainly they cannot be held accountable for lost profits as the buyer has been fully made aware of the risks!

GWB now has a bid and I would expect a light flurry on some of the bigger pieces such as CYWs, Christ With Shopping Bags etc as well as we get in to the last hour/minutes.
Laugh Now is a bargain as it stands, as is Pulp Fiction which has no bids, but has been seen a lot in the last 18 months. The last Christies Online Auction saw nearly everything sold, as well as a calamitous system crash.
Could be good watch time to get a cup of tea!!!
