I Cant believe that I have just got the replacement for my damaged morron's and this one also damaged I am so p*ssed off. haven't even taken it out off the tube and I can see the damage, I think POW need to invest in some bigger tubes! or some one who can be a little less heavy handed when packing. nice printing bad packing






(moan over)

they hate you.

It is unbelievable how often this happens at POW. I've had to send back 2 out of 6 prints in the past.

[johnerotten]

my friend's morons came like that too. they don't care. i don't think i would care either. its not even creased. put some cloth over it and take an iron to it if you care that much.

maybe i'm wrong and some of you can shed light on this. would this type of half creased corner make it less than "mint" condition?

what do i know. i'm just another moron who payed alot of money for this s**t print. ;D

B******s...get on to them, it's completely unreasonable for something costing that much money to arrive in anything other than perfect condition.

[submit]

I still haven't gotten mine delivered once yet and you've gotten it delivered twice? wow. sorry about your print.

[lastpost]

Mine arrived today...I think I may have got the green variation. I will try to post a pic and you can let me know if I am being too sensitive!!

[lesroy]

Lastpost > Please do post pics I would really like to see them.

[biggayal]

I've seen a green looking one for sale on the Bay - looks pretty putrid IMO. It could be worth more however due the 'rarity' value if the colour doesn't offend you
Personally, I'd send it back....

[lesroy]

very strange this!

I deteste the green... looks gash imo. Sepia is good but I honestly prefer the US version with the gold frame.

Can anyone tell me what the differnce is between the backgrounds from the US & UK versions?

[manchestermike]

My bro sent his green one back today. Apparently they may not be able to replace it as they're running out! Tricky, hope they can do, otherwise what happens? Green bent print back or a refund?

[taktheride]

They should be able to easily print more.

[lastpost]

I hope I am being paranoid then! It looks a lot greener than in these pics...

true true true

if it aint mint - send it back

[lastpost]

Whay are your thoughts on the colour of mine? Touch and go i'm thinking

[Strange Al]

It's interesting that most of the "damaged" prints are damaged in the same way. Although this may have happened during packing or in transit, it wouldn't surprise me if the paper (either before or after printing) was stacked in a pile and the stack was dinged. Thereby damaging a whole load of prints at once. Not that it really makes much difference how it happened if you've received a damaged one.

As for reprinting them, that may not be as easy as it sounds. Really depends on whether POW still have the screens made up and colours mixed, etc. Not to mention all of the extra work for Ben. Then they're going to have to get Banksy to sign them and that could take some time.

Obviously I'd want a mint one, but if it came down to a dinged one or my money back I'd definitely keep the dinged one.

As for the colour variation, POW must have mixed the colours themselves, not made enough, and simply couldn't match them again. Or they were experimenting a bit.

whats up with the top left corner? is the print skew-whiff?

[lastpost]

It's just the POW paper folded over I think. I hope...

[Run Pig Run]

oh yeah, i can see that now. have these got the fluffly edge (or whatever you called it) like the white version?

[lastpost]

Yeh...i'll take some better photo's tomorrow when the light is better. Deckled? edge makes it even more difficult to get out of the tube without tearing in half! I just looked at the POW image of Sepia...note quite the same.

[ABC]

They seem to look more like Khaki than Sepia but hey , at least you got one.

[lastpost]

True, true...shouldn't forget that!! I think the light/camera may affect how the colour looks to be honest.

This thread is making me nervous. I sent mine back, I pray it comes in mint condition.

[lastpost]

Ha ha. That is why I am willing mine to be sepia coloured in the morning. Just my luck it would never make it back to POW if I sent it back!!

I sent mine back too... and I'm located in the US, so everything takes longer

What I don't get... is why I have to pay the postage for the return. I paid the postage for them to send it to me, and since I was defective, I again have to pay the postage to send it back to them, including insurance and tracking and all?

Not a big deal if it happens once in a blue moon, but this is the 3rd time I've had to return prints to POW. It all adds up, at US$35 per pop!!

[ABC]

Ouch

[lastpost]

Surely they will sort you out once all is done?? It's awful if they don't.

[ABC]

They can only send a replacement if they have them in stock.
