A mate of mine is looking to buy a Think Tank poster. Anyone on here selling or knows of a genuine one for sale? Looked at all the usual eBay, Artsy stuff. 

[Schrödinger's Chat]

There are many different sizes and designs of think tank poster, so you might need want to specify.
amazingly I picked up a rather beaten up bus stop poster for £50 this morning at Enter Gallery sale.

[bumf]

Bus stop preferably, great buy you’ve nabbed there. Any of the smaller ones would be considered.

[mreaze]

Ive got a bus stop poster and the smaller poster that i may be parting with? Do you have a budget or want to make an offer? ( acquired both back in 2003)

Tell him it's a stupid idea, it all will be worth zilch very soon. 
The market is going massively down since the unanswered fraud allegations.

Well maybe I wouldn't bring it up if they would answer the allegations ?

I'll answer them. What are they?

[mreaze]

Yes , i would like to hear the story thats being eluded to? I think i missed it.

[Schrödinger's Chat]

Very intrigued, is this the allegations of Cinders Mcleod and Banksy stealing her ideas?

I think it’s funny that some artists try to claim ‘ownership’ over what are really quite simple ideas.

[Minecrafter]

I just drop you guys two links. You should read them both to understand the full extent. 

I think it's interesting how "Test shreds" have been sold under the hand, how Banksy experts say it's very likely that it wasn't painted in 2006 and how Sotheby's blaming lest control - and pest control gives no statement.

Oh blimey ! Are you telling me that artists and the art industry are playing on a false sense of value, inflating and manipulating the art market to line their own pockets ! What a suprise!
not sure what this story has to do with the Think Tank posters we were talking about?

Banksy and pest control have authenticated this work. Who really cares what date was given? The artist has given the all clear to this piece.  Enough said. Banksy can sell anything he likes that he created. I fail to understand what JPS is going for here.  Everyone is seemingly happy about the outcome...except JPS.  Remember, Banksy doesn't really make money out of the reselling of this piece (other than an artist resale rights which is a small percentage). He may well decide to sell some of the test pieces to fund other projects, or pay for a bloody new Lamborghini if he chooses.  Irrelevant either way and totally within his rights as the artist. 

I also fail to see what this has to do with the price of a think tank poster.

Fraud is fraud, Sotheby's were in on it and the collective used the power to bully my husband further . 
Now, 2 years later a lot more people back him and believe it. 
Oh and it's still not proven wrong . 
Being anonymous and falsely dating work by 12 years is a major hack. 

And it's no coincidence that the falling of his rise started with this article. 
Time to sell sell sell 😂

From a civilian point it’s fraud -
from a rival it’s plain cheating and super illegal ... 
god knows what else the collective gets off with... 
It’s all a flat out cringeworthy false narrative…… pure comedy

It’s not surprising that Banksy wants to remain anonymous when there are people like you around.

We all get it, you and your hubby (JPS - who btw copies Banksy’s style) have some kind of beef with Banksy’s work. Sharing old tinpot blog links with conspiracy theories of your husband that everyone ignores every time they are shared only makes you look worth ignoring even more.

Instead of obsessing over something you will never change, take a chill pill and obsess about something else.

(Oops - sorry if I just lit a fuse but I’ve now hidden any future posts so I won’t see them anyway 😊)

Maybe ten years ago he copied Banksys style - but he creamed them after, that's for sure.

Funny how my husband doesnt hide his name,
breaks the law by painting without permission most of the time
and has the balls to call out banksy and sothebys -  being fully aware of how heavy it would be.

Banksy hasn’t even  got the minerals to own up and claim copyright worth 49 million and is scared of an 80 pound fine 😂
Or maybe because of his topics….
the real reason is they are a right bunch of frauds, and all the artists connected are viewed the same.

And we aint just calling out Banksy at this point, we will soon call out the members individually.

[Street Arted 2020]

Maybe, JPS could spray a copy of a THINK TANK poster for the OP?

Exactly !

a little like Accrington Stanley

[mreaze]

There are better ways to get attention minecrafter..

About the Think Tank posters ,to get back on track, anybody have an idea of the value on the original bus stop size? I guess the £50 bargain Schrodingers chat found is unusual?

[Wanchope]

Yes highly unusual price wise, but then again, and fair play to him for being honest, it didn’t look in good condition whatsoever

I would of thought any genuine fraud allegations would boost the Banksy market, not harm it!

I sold one one the bay in July last year for £500.
