No Nola, by My Name is Frank on Nov 24, 2008 14:16:37 GMT 1, I'm very distressed today. The credit card payment that was taken by POW last week for a Nola has been returned to the card. Anyone else ever had this happen??? And still ended up receiving the print?? I got confirmation emails from POW and Protx immediately after the purchase was made. I've emailed POW but haven't heard anything back yet. I've read some sickening stories about POW fcuk ups in the past. I just hope that this doesn't turn into another one of those stories Lef

No Nola, by bldouble on Nov 24, 2008 14:22:44 GMT 1, I bought a Nola on Friday, received both receipts. Checked my account and they had credited my account with the amount first and then withdrawn the amount soon after. Let me know if you hear anything as this has been troubling me all weekend.

One of those flippers who has already sold a nola sold a colour trolley the day after it was released. Why dont they get their orders cancelled and then the print can go to some one else?

No Nola, by ecb on Nov 24, 2008 15:42:59 GMT 1, Same thing happened to me. I got a similar email.
Whoever got print # 112 is a lucky chap.
So if this did happen as Dora says, than why post more for sale the next day? Why not offer those up to the people who got screwed. Just my first thought after being gutted. I didn't ask as I'm sure she has a lot more to do.
My email was a little different, basically not as much detail as you got, just that it didn't go all the way through even though I have receipts from POW and protx boldly statinh "ORDER SUCCESSFUL". I'm rambling sorry.
What I'm trying to say is that in the email Dora sent me, she states that while the NOLA print is sold out, there will be more prints soon. She doesn't say Banksy, but it could be easily conferred.
To everyone who got their orders canceled, we should all meet at a cyber pub and drown our miseries. First rounds on me.

No Nola, by Daniel Silk on Nov 24, 2008 18:59:35 GMT 1, Official statement from POW regarding the release:
We would like to apologise to the people who received a refund on Thursday. Our database was overwhelmed with people adding to basket at exactly the same time & a small number of prints were allocated twice. The small number of prints that became available on Friday were related to something else & clearly those prints should never have been made available. As a result all of those orders on Friday have now been refunded. We extend our apologies to those customers as well. We have been able to to re-allocate all the prints from Friday's refunds & prints destined for Ebay sellers to customers who were refunded on Thursday. We hope to cover all the people who were refunded Thursday but if we don't they will be offered the opportunity to buy a Banksy print in the future. We thank you for your continued support & understanding. Best regards Simon@picturesonwalls.com

I don't think we should give POW a hard time. After all, they sell a print for ยฃ450 when the going market rate is nearer ten times that amount.......
PS. I didnt get one!

BTW - Don't go bidding on any ebay Nola's for now eh!

Bit harsh that, I would be distressed if I thought I had picked up a wicked print and had already planned on where I'm going to put it, only to be told actually no you didnt and here's your money back. I realise you are pointing out have a bit of perspective, fair enough, but perhaps you should too?
