Banksy Chinooks original on eBay, by silvermyn on May 13, 2010 9:13:51 GMT 1, Anyone seen this one before? At £250k with provenance I'm not sure eBay is where it's going to find a home.
item number 290434807600
Presumably it was in bad shape if it's been restored but interested to find out if anyone knows more about the piece

Banksy Chinooks original on eBay, by ricobenfico on May 13, 2010 10:56:35 GMT 1, "tinternetdon" has been mentioned on here a few times if memory serves me correctly.
Would you buy a £250,000 banksy original off a guy who alongside it is selling a Yale Lock for £5.50?!?

Banksy Chinooks original on eBay, by Prescription Art on May 13, 2010 11:44:32 GMT 1, tinternetdon has sold countless items with fake banksy signatures. Plus cans posters stenciled by another artist that he was trying to pass off as Banksys.
Who know if this is genuine, but I certainly wouldn't trust him.
I'm am sure I saw these chinooks on a wall or on the side of a lorry, but can't think of the piece. It's similar to the Onecut CD sleeve though

Banksy Chinooks original on eBay, by rosstierney on May 13, 2010 23:51:42 GMT 1, £250k with best offer option, makes sense. 30% to charity, nice gesture. why's he advertising the piece with a pre restoration photo though?
the seller has been a bit of a joke in the past, trying to sell items with forged signatures including stickers & a first great weston print.

Banksy Chinooks original on eBay, by Deleted on May 14, 2010 0:46:37 GMT 1, perhaps this listing on gumtree could help shed more light or muddy the waters more for you
I was sent photos also - which i dont have anymore. The photos were as PrescriptionArt states were from the side of a lorry. Also what makes this piece even more dubious is that the seller in his gumtree listing says it has POW street provenance (which any collector knows this to be untrue), but his ebay listings has Laz as provenance
emptor caveat
