The 1st AP goes up for auction Tuesday morning 11am GMT

[romanywg]

Good Luck. I'll start the guessing game by saying I think it will fetch £160.

[damullae]

How much did the charity ones go for? how many?

Like the print.

good work

[romanywg]

£30 + £6 P+P. There were 60 for sale and it really is a very nice quality print.

nice one, I did get an email about it but was travelling and didnt have the time to cast a vote and check them all out etc

does look good.

PS: what will happen with the other 8 A/P's? guess artist does what he wants with it yeah?

[romanywg]

This guy is going to be the next best thing after Dan Baldwin and then someone else, believe me. This print has risen to £87 after only 3 hours! At the present rate that means it should sell for £1343! Even Banksy didn't realise a 4000% increase with his first print!
Do you believe in forums influencing sales? AND it's all for a good cause....... though I've forgotten who.

[thetongue]

I know it's for charity but the image is a bit weak and obvious in my opinion.

Hope they raise a lot of cash though as is a good cause

Please say you are joking, PLEASE.....

[romanywg]

You must be from the US yes? Of coarse I am joking.

Great cause, and good idea, preferred some of the other options though.

I for one hope this print raises loads for sightsavers,the work that went into this print by AZ and others should be applauded highly,lots of people made money off of the Banksy print and rightly or wrongly the ebay forum decided amongst themselves to try and redress the balance.
The original cost of £30 for the print was a bargain and those that got the print all seem very happy with it,as for the image being weak....come on people,if you have not been lucky enough to get a print,please dig deep and place a bid.It's for a great cause and it will make a difference.Don't forget the auction is for 1/10 only AP's.....
Cheers

Nearing the £100 mark so well on the way to making them some more dosh, nice work!

[Hugs]

Really cool that it's raising awareness for the charity as well as a nice print.
The AP's are a little bit more special as they have the "Bedminster" tag along the bottom of the print,it's done in the same font as weston super mare ( i'm sure it's WSM?) print by Banksy.
I can see this print doing nearer £200 myself,only 2 of these will be made available to buy i believe so bid it up folks.

[romanywg]

PULLED!

Anyone know why?

[romanywg]

They said :- We'd like to let you know that this Item, 300088258233 - ebay Banksy Forum Sightsavers Charity Print (AP) 5/10 was removed from eBay for breaching of one or more of our listing policies.
Any offers or bids that you placed on this auction-style listing are now null and void, you don't have to complete this transaction.
This listing was removed because it was listed incorrectly; therefore, the seller is free to re-list the item in the correct format. If you want to, feel free to bid on the item again if it's re-listed.

[Hugs]

They really should rename ebay as Goofbay,that really is a unreal isn't it?
After all is said and done this IS a charity print from the ebay Banksy forum,perhaps they don't like that fact sightsavers are getting a mention!

[azlan]

I'm seriously f***ed off!
So sad there are people out there that would do that, really upset me!
£100 would have saved the sight of 5 people!
(£1.50 worth a charity money up the swannie... they already made £90 in fees out of us as it is!)

I'll have to re-list it later!
- Any suggestions on a title??

(just writing a letter of complaint for what it worth!??)

[Montubu7]

There already is a goofbay & a pretty neat site it is too!

Godd luck with the auction

Thankyou for everyones patients
(sad some narrow minded tyke likes playing god with the ebay listings... <insert foul language!>)

[corblimeylimey]

That's a real shame it was pulled, it can only be because you've used Banksy in the title, (keyword spamming) normally I wouldn't mind, but not in this case, it is from the Banksy ebay forum AND for Banksy's charity too, good luck, I hope you don't have any problems this time.

[Hugs]

Now relisted and over the £200 mark..fantastic work,well done AZ

[romanywg]

It's a shame.. I wanted to bid on this, and I know it's for charity but it's getting too high too quick. I hope it's going to someone who wants Azlan's print and is doing it for charity than someone who's just seen the soup can poster and is bidding on that..

[azlan]

Nah, they just want my packaging!

[romanywg]

£415! They do know it's an unlimited Soup Can poster don't they??

[Tyler Durden]

I'm sure the rich kids don't let things like that worry them..

[azlan]

Quick heads up! The 1st auction ends at 8pm tonight.
All going to plan, this will raise a very tidy sum for Sightsavers!!!
