Heard nothing, happy for those who won, good way to give money to charity and if you get nothing - you've helped a good cause.
As for me empty handed to date, but thats cool

[low3]

I know H, but if i give us til christmas, i can have a happy one and then get depressed in january.

I think all the winners will have there emails by now.

[sterlzuk]

Got a Banksy!

[goffy]

Surely if some people have had the offer of one of 3, that means after they have chosen the other 2 are back in the draw. Or are people bullshitting about getting an offer on all 3?

I bet loads of winners have put their wife's,kids,dog and cats names and email address in the draw
it seemed more self policed, so will open to abuse. I'm not bitter :)i

[ashby]

what the edition on the Banksy? my wifes one is very high 200's (way above the 259 I thought it was going to be)

[grantb]

SO WHO GOT DRAWN FIRST OUT OF THE HAT ?

[griffermans]

no luck here! Boo! Perhaps they are still drawing it?

Another well deserving member, nice one Darren, chuffed for you mate!

[slowmo]

259! How big is the edition? Gonna stop F5'ing in the vain hope they held some back to release. I guess its just gonna be the ones not bought. Well done those that won one.

Thanks mate!

[hlarmy]

Does anyone know what the edition size is? At £350 a pop it must be a large edition or there must be another version of the print on the horizon

EDIT: or maybe the price reflects the smaller size...

[otomi]

I guess it is time for a US only release

[slowmo]

I remember this feeling. I had the same one the first week of the lottery, I had my ticket, I was sure I was going to win, then nothing, I was so sure I would win that I was really disappointed. Exactly the same feeling.

[thetongue]

Ah well, I never wanted one anyway ;D ;D ;D

[robinbanks]

Edition is definitely 299.

259 people got first refusal.

1 or 2 get one free.

Mr B keeps number 1 for himself.

Wouldn't be surprised if all the POW staff who worked at the open day get one as xmas bonus so that's another 12 gone at least.

Don't think we're going to see many if any of these for sale online people - sorry!

[hupster]

O well another banksy i have missed. Must be a record....last 5 on the trot missed.Still have not got a banksy apart from books and postcards. Been online during release's and travelled miles to get a raffle ticket but still no joy.
I thank POW for a good day out and congrats to all who have won.

Heres to the next one and the dream to bag one for the wall.

Hupster

[rosstierney]

i'm devestated i couldn't make it down to london, everyone seems to be winning an opportunity

if i'd have known they weren't going to release part of the editions online like they said they would, i'd have done everything in my power to re-arrange what was stopping me from attending an open day



& if they can't replace my damaged nola because they're "extremely low on replacements"

[alsbabar]

edition is 299 and well done to the lucky sods ;D

Anyone get first refusal on the Micallefs yet?

[robo]

On the assumption that I maybe haven't won one, lemme know if any lucky winners want to swap my Nola for their Every Little...

[chrisj]

How about a Scotland only one, where maybe people who dont have jobs and nothing to do at the weekend can come along and buy ticket's for a raffle.
