Banksy Donuts Print, by grantb on Jul 27, 2009 16:04:03 GMT 1, Ok whoever said few pages back that 600 was a large release it really isn't. 299 both ways. Will be more the trollys, as more trollys plus the black and White then the unsigned. There Are some artists who do editions in 4 figures. I wish it was an f5 fight where everyone gets alerted in the morning. You stand a much better chance as the majority of us fans will know about it.

Banksy Donuts Print, by mammal on Jul 27, 2009 16:07:07 GMT 1, The worst was the 'Grey' Nola! All those t@ssers throwing their dummies out of their prams because of a slight mishap. And then low and behold 'Grey' Nola's for sale everywhere!
Nice gesture from the Artist though. Nola became a real help to a great number of charities, both indirectly through the chance to win a 1/1 and through other editions such as the 32 and Inkie hand finished edition. These donut prints could go for 1500 and by rights POW could go for that being a limited company with an objective to maximise profit margins for its shareholders as dividends, but yet again Banksy keeps it real for people in the current economic climate, while other artists still think its 2007 and then some. At the moment, the way this country is now and the many that are affected by it, Banksy comes along and puts on a FREE show, a poster release for those without ยฃ500 and a print for those who collect his work. Bah. Im on their side. The lottery may be a b**ch, but people who have just become interested in the artist through the show have every right to enjoy a print and have an opportunity to purachse as those that purchased a canvas at Evershed. innit

Banksy Donuts Print, by silvermyn on Jul 27, 2009 16:24:34 GMT 1, There are other images I prefer to this one but it would sit rather well with my S&S. Gone for the pink one.
At the moment the lottery seems the fairest way to release the prints IMO. The problems with Nola resulted in more prints being released to the masses than intended. At least this way POW can be pretty sure who has been allocated a print and who has not.
It's great news that POW are continuing to release Banksy prints. The winners will get a cheap Banksy from source and POW are giving a portion of proceeds to good causes.
Best of luck to everyone in the lottery.

Banksy Donuts Print, by Nico on Jul 27, 2009 18:44:14 GMT 1, My first post here, tough one to write...don't wanna upset anyone on my first day around! I think it's good that we get a chance, even as slim as it is, it's still a chance. I don't think that's the best of prints but I do like it enough to hang it on my wall if first of all I get lucky. Definitely glad I didn't read anything in Metro or other newspaper about it...pfiou! It would be nice if it was directed more towards people on the POW mailing list as with word spreading fast, a lot of winners will head off straight to ebay. Regarding the message...well...not sure about how deep we should look into it but interesting that regardless...it makes people talk! (a hell of a lot!)

Banksy Donuts Print, by neale on Jul 27, 2009 20:46:14 GMT 1, If you can believe what has been said in this thread, it doesn't take a genius to work out that very few genuine fans will be successful in getting one of these; this is the obvious downside. The upside is that many will hit the secondary market straight away, which will pull the resale value down. Couple this with my personal belief that this is a print that many will want to spend ยฃ1k+ on it (I could be very wrong here!) and it should be (kind of) affordable to those who love the print and are happy to pay more than cost for it - for me, I fall into this category, I'd love to win one but wouldn't pay much more than cost for it. I have entered the draw but won't be too disappointed if I don't get one. I just hope that many fellow forum members get one (and hang it), and more importantly they don't end up going to those looking to make a quick profit It's all just a bit of fun anyway ... there are far more important things in life well said Hlarmy
