i'd guess the massive majority of banksy fans, and those who buy off ebay are not on the forum. don't think we'd really make a difference.
the biggest issue in driving prices down will be if there are a load of them hitting the market right away.
i'd have loved most of the prints banksy's released on my walls but i did like this one especially. i thought the bristol show was amazing and this piece has something extra because of this, hopefully they'll be a couple more bristol show releases* as prints.
* i know people will say i could frame one of the show posters but i really don't think any of the 4 are great for framing - nice momentos, fine for pinning to a wall but they're not properly composed pieces. i've not seen the parliament poster and i loved the finished piece so i'll withhold judgement on that...

BOYCOTT EBAY BANKSY DONUTS!, by bullet on Jul 29, 2009 17:51:01 GMT 1, it would not work anyway, as then people would not bother selling...making them even hard to get.
there is more banksy prints due for sure... maybe some that people prefer so lets put this under the carpet.

BOYCOTT EBAY BANKSY DONUTS!, by bullet on Jul 29, 2009 18:01:14 GMT 1, no, but i was not holding out hopes anyway...there is no point. If you truly want the image ive started to believe you would pay what its worth anyway. If you are not willing to pay ยฃ1000 - ยฃ1500 for it then you cant like it that much.
People may argue otherwise (like its a financial thing) but if you really want something you will pay for it...
its just a nice thing now with these to maybe get them at source, but its only going to get worse.

its maybe dull if you never want to make money on it, but i guess if you paid full price you would not care about that anyway

IMO the image isnt strong enough to warrant x4 the cost. But hey, you all want the signature hanging on your walls. Have a cold bath and wait a couple of weeks. I reckon these will struggle at 1k.

BOYCOTT EBAY BANKSY DONUTS!, by snausages on Jul 29, 2009 19:41:17 GMT 1, me as i want one at cost.
I'd like a soup can at cost too, but look at the bright side. There was a point in time where if you didn't get a signed prnt from POW you would have to pay well over $5000 on ebay. But I tend to think you'll be able to get this one for a relatively affordable price.
Also if you do buy a Banksy print within a couple months after its release on ebay you can report them to POW, or send an email to PC too verifying the print number and the certificate. That will also alert them. But I'm guessing you'll need proof like photos and such. But this way the wankers will be barred from POW in the future.
I just hope we don't see more sore losers blaming Silky because some twats try to sell their prints on the forum or ebay ads show up on the site for donut prints.

Ebay doesn't care about provenance and is not going to do a thing about this. So someone please please sabotage this! |

BOYCOTT EBAY BANKSY DONUTS!, by simonf on Jul 29, 2009 20:00:46 GMT 1, but how?... some poor person is going to get well and truly shafted... all that money for two posters!... but what can you do...?ultimately it's caveat emptor I'm affraid. Ebay aren't going to respond to someone writing in saying they are fakes... think of the final value fees they are going to make

BOYCOTT EBAY BANKSY DONUTS!, by snausages on Jul 29, 2009 20:09:41 GMT 1, Why, cause they're obvious fakes and I know buyer should beware but that is a horrible thing to do and have happen. Ebay looks the other way on this usually until lawyers get involved. Then they'll care, they don't really like bad press about phony product being sold on their site. Maybe someone can publicize this? Or if someone has a phony ebay account set up (I don't but I know there are sabotagers on this forum) it would be a better thing to do than just sabotage a donut print cause you're envious.

BOYCOTT EBAY BANKSY DONUTS!, by dogzero on Jul 30, 2009 17:42:47 GMT 1, I didn't have any luck in the lottery and I don't own a signed Banksy at the moment.
I wasn't hugely excited by the donut print to start with, but it's really grown on me. My plan, if I wasn't successful in the lottery, was to make a concerted effort to get myself a Nola - but now I'm not so sure.
