Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by spenie on Feb 27, 2012 12:48:58 GMT 1, Would love to see POW keep the details under wraps and for a massive queue to form based on rumor, panic and greed. The queue filled at first with over privileged London fan boys tapping away on their ipads discussing how great it is standing in a street, before being brushed aside by gangsters 10 minutes from the doors opening. The moaning and fury at POW in this 10 minute window will make for some hilarious reading. That said, the fanboys get the last laugh when POW reveal itโs an unsigned open edition for ยฃ200. The gangsters buy dozens. I pick one up from ebay for ยฃ60. White box frame. Nice.
Classic!! :-)

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by Happy Shopper on Feb 27, 2012 15:59:45 GMT 1, POW have been saying for a while that there will be no queue... but then again, they always say that!
Would be good if they have some kind of Spring Fayre and have a raffle... all's fair, they get some hype and no trouble at 3am!!

I have always assumed it's Silky re-emphasizing old threads. Though I could be wrong.
Nothing gets the old page impressions up and traffic driven to your site like google friendly terms containing 'banksy print release'

Big Dave, his wife, his sister, his brother, his two sons, his daughter, his daughters boyfriend, his sons boyfriend, his other sons girlfriend, his mum, his dad, his workmate, his work mate's dad, his work mate's mum, his workmates sister, his work mate's brother and guess what............ they all love banksy.
Am I fuck wasting my time traveling up to London. The last time I did, the two blokes in front of me didn't know anything about art, nor were they interested, in fact my dog knew more about art than them. A little frustrating to say the least.

I'm getting half a doz signs made up for random distribution on or outside assorted vacant looking retail outfits away from Commercial Street
"BANKSY" Ju lutem radhe per shtyp ketu
There are accents over some of the 'e's - but I don't know how to put them up
Might work. Oh yes ........ translates to: 'Please queue here for prints'

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by redfred on Feb 28, 2012 14:14:25 GMT 1, Its about time POW put a stop to this multiple buying, I appreciate it wouldnt be very popular and they will get a lot of flack but if on the day they limited it to one per family or tribe instead of per person it would go a long way to helping those who are genuine. They dont need to advertise the new buying regime and just use a bit of common sense on the day, from those that have qued and reported on here it seems the people doing it are pretty obvious and blatent. Put some decent security on and give those who are able to get there a sporting chance!! Rant Over.

So if 4 people of this forum turn up together that only one of them should be allowed a print? Or because there are two people related that only one is allowed? I don't think that it would be possible to do...

I certainly dont think you will stop them all but for example Mr & Mrs plus 3 kids roll up and try to pay for 5 prints on one credit card then it is pretty obvious they are together! Just that one instance would release 4 prints to hopefully genuine buyers. If the que was monitered it would be pretty obvious who was legit particularly the so called gangsters pushing in at the front of the que, decent security would stop it and have them barred.

They canโt enforce it anymore than that, and why would they want to?
The Banksy sale is nothing but hassle and rude customers for POW.
The sooner they can say SOLD OUT and pull the shutters down the better for them
