Banksy 2010, by idris on Jul 25, 2011 17:32:10 GMT 1, Well it will be interesting to see if queuing is allowed at all next time - why not an entire release via lottery? I've only ever done an over nighter at BRP a long time ago and that was fun.

**Now at cost, UK only, payment by bank transfer**
Was reluctantly put on ebay which just sold for ยฃ355 after ebay fees of ยฃ35 it's a no brainer.
If the sale falls thru and you want it RSVP & you will have first refusal on the print.
TY
Offering up for sale is a friends Dran Exhibit; I didn't bag one and can't afford one.
He wants ยฃ450 but will listen to offers.
Please PM me your abuse &/or offers.

Banksy ... SA on Ebay with PC - not mine, by idris on Jan 5, 2011 0:01:12 GMT 1, WOW - check this
cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310273587605#ht_16939wt_1358
Wow .. read the below
Original Banksy Safe - Rare and Unique piece of Urban Art with Pest Control COA.
An extremely scarce piece of Banksy street art which has nevertheless been fully certified by Banksy's Gallery, Pictures on Walls (included is a Pest Control Certificate of Authenticity). This safe has an impeccable provenance. Not only does it appear photographed in Banksy's book 'Wall and Piece' on page 102, it was offered for sale by Christies as lot 180 in their sale in London on February 12th 2009. Early 2009 was about the bottom of the Banksy market, at time when UK Banks were nearing a precipice, and a general air of capitalist armageddon gripped the Square Mile. Unsurprisingly in that atmosphere the safe did not sell. The piece itself measures 25 by 18 by 19 inches and is executed as spray paint on an enamel and steel safe. The stencil used is one of Banksy's most distinctive early motifs, the rat with a parachute. The stencil has been arranged around the handle and combination wheel of the safe itself. The safe, dating probably from the 1970s, is currently locked and there is some damage to the outer surface of the safe - a number of scratches and chips. The stencil itself is in very good order. The central plastic covering of the combination wheel is missing, although this has been missing for some time, and was certainly lacking when it was offered at Christies. The combination wheel turns, and perhaps in the hands of the right cracksman might open. The safe comes from a friend of Banksy who writes 'To fill you in on me a bit. I have a tattoo studio in the West Country and prior to that I had a studio on Hackney Road, East London. It was there that I met and tattooed Banksy and he would pay me in prints. I also helped him out with his tattooed Venus sculpture that was in the crude oils show. I think because of this he gave me the safe as a thank you. I think also because of this two years later he must have approved the certificate for me when I tried to get it authenticated. A lot of people have contacted me with similar street pieces that they cannot get the paperwork for and thus not sell them. I was not intending to sell the safe but it is quite heavy and we have moved house twice already and it would make things a lot easier to move without it. Since living in Cornwall, nearly four years it has been on it's side in the spare bedroom. So it would be good for it to go to a good home where it will be appreciated'. Make no mistake this is a rare opportunity to buy a genuine piece of Banksy street art with full authentication. It is unique, so once it's sold, you won't see another. Please note this safe is extremely heavy and takes three people to lift it. Please contact us for estimates for delivery. SquareTrade ยฉ AP6.0

FS:BANKSY SOUPCAN/GIFT PRINT, by idris on Jan 4, 2011 23:57:48 GMT 1, PC refused point blank to authenticate any street piece back in 2008 when some auction house were selling street pieces ... I believe they went to Vermin? I mean WTF ... is a cert of authenticity from Vermin really solid provenance? Dunno what happened in the end but (Drewitts) I think said 'we can't see it being a problem coz these street pieces are legit .. innit'!
It's a touch one to call - great print but do you depart with the readies knowing if and when you come to sell it .... you might have problems.
Good luck with the sale mate -

Real Fans VS Flippers - my rant, by idris on Dec 25, 2010 18:15:25 GMT 1, Dolphins R Us .. there will always be flippers. I was shopping for a 458 Ferrari just yesterday, guess what? ยฃ25k premium on cost .... that's just taking flipping to a more grander scale. Of course I was merely window shopping but flippers are taking advantage in knowing people will pay a premium.
Love it or hate the flippers debate will never end!

Banksy Grin Reaper Print, by idris on Dec 20, 2010 22:08:58 GMT 1, Worse bit is it even if +feedback is left you ie the seller will more often than not need to ring PayPal to ask for the funds to be released and you wil be met by "your funds will be released in X days ..."
Course ... what happens if no fb is left or someone leaves you -fb??
Yeah I think it's cr@p, too. For that reason when using ebay 'prefer' cash on collection coz if you list 'don't accept paypal' you'll find ebay cancel your listing.

Banksy Grin Reaper Print, by idris on Dec 20, 2010 16:17:15 GMT 1, Go way of ebay but list as 'preferred method of payment cash on collection'. I hate paypal and the fact they hold onto payment until the buyer leaves positive feedback worries me.
Of course you may get a buyer here. Good luck any which way.
