Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by bullysonzx10r on Mar 23, 2014 22:44:10 GMT 1, First time post... Long time lurker...
Who knows if it's a scam or not. The 3 months aspect doesn't make it any more or less of a scam, if BNE was trying to get beyond the 45 days, he could have used 2 months as his number.
The site may say that they can produce 10,000 shirts a week, but who knows what they already have booked yet, and 500 shirts is such a small run, that it wouldn't be a priority.
I personally bought 4 shirts, 2 to wear, and 2 to frame (in case there is a front and back graphic) In the long run, if I get screwed and get 4 shirts that have nothing to do with Banksy, I'll be upset, because I was not buying these to donate (Call me an asshole if you wish) I was buying them because of the Banksy connection. However, in the long run -- $320 isn't going to make me broke, and if $240 of that helps 12 people get clean drinking water -- even though that had nothing to do with my original intention -- I'm happy to help.
In the meantime -- everyone who is asking for refunds... At the very least you should have waited a few weeks to see how this all pans out. You've just jumped the gun and might end up really regretting your decision.
