Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by Manty on Mar 26, 2014 19:54:47 GMT 1, ....At this point, I don't care about the limited thing, just tell me what I bought. It has changed way too many times. He needs to pick one thing, let us know what it is and then go from there. I don;t care for the limited thing either, but i do want to know how many he sold. In case he sold more than 500 he should donate that difference to charity too. He needs to be clear on the numbers...
is it not fluid with people buying and asking for refunds? will that not be the case for a while longer?
Should he say oh i have sold 700 but refunded 300. then update us us on a weekly or daily or hourly basis on purchase and refunds. is that what you want?
Or should he wait for a while until all has settled, T shirts have been delivered and then update on how many were sold and the total sent to the charity

Just answer the questions and be clear about what's happening. Since the start he is been dodging questions and he never was clear about what was (and is) happening.
And still keep in mind i am a huge fan of BNE.....
I am just baffled...

... I am sure BNE would have paid his homeless friend a few $$ ... now he gets jackshit!

OK, the T shirt debacle started Saturday afternoon.
Its now only 3 working days after that.
Maybe, just maybe, he is himself unclear about the best way to handle this. I wouldn't think he has a small army of advisors and a PR machine helping him, and is possibly just a guy who had good intentions that has blown up big time for him.
He has had quite a bit to be getting on with I would imagine, and it doesn't look like an instant fix. Maybe allowing the guy a week or two to have a bit o breathing space and to think it through maybe a good idea?
Everyone has an option to get a refund, and move on

He's also a great artist so i'll give him the benefit of the doubt. But logic thinking and being fair to his donators would help him out of this mess... Sure people will not agree with him, but being fair and straight up is never wrong. I am just baffled with his prior move(s)...

For me it is absolutely not clear what he means..... I am now wondering what you guys have emailed him about, and what do you guys want?

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by bullysonzx10r on Mar 26, 2014 20:57:16 GMT 1, So... This means we're going to get a T-shirt with a banksy quote on it...? That doesn't really make it special, or worth $80 as opposed to the $40 for the shirts designed by Falies Invader and Shep... What a bunch of s**t. But he's said have a refund if you want. Several times. And the payment is mostly a donation to charity. I would have preferred a banksy t shirt. But in view of the two points above, I can't get angry about this and nor do I want a refund. You're not incorrect.
I've said it before, I bought 4 shirts. I was looking to frame at least one, possibly two if it was a front and back design, and wear the other 2 (one Black, one Grey.)
I personally bought them for the art, not for the cause -- I know, I'm a horrible asshole who should have to travel a desert with no water source -- fitting punishment.
If the shirt is just going to be some bullshit design that comes from a group sourced thought, I still wouldn't mind getting one, but I definitely don't need 4. However, it seems that people who cancel, have their entire purchase (Including other artist shirts) canceled.
on top of that, if the Banksy connection was bullshit -- which is was -- and the design is going to be group thought as opposed to a professional artist, Why the fuck would I pay $80 for it when the shirts by professional artists were half the cost.
I know I'm just rehashing, and he's offering refunds to anyone who wants one, but I guess on Day 4, I'm finally at my frustration point with this project.

add edit: and drymount that blogger dude that outed him on this Banksy release. This wouldn't have been a scam if the guy with a vendetta not point it out to begin with. BNE is smoking some really strong chit for saying that.

This.
Could look good on a tee, and it would showcase that BNE is actually self aware.
At the moment, unsure he'd recognize it's his reflection in a mirror.

This is also why he's not automatically returning everyone's order and starting from scratch in a more upfront fashion. Agreed. He refuses to answer this very simple and straightforward question. The correct answer should be 490 sold + 10 giveaways = 500. But, I'm certain he sold thousands.

He said Banksy even posted it on fb. Don't know about you but I don't know which of my acquaintances have fb accounts. I certainly wouldn't know if someone had a fake one. Not sure why the expectation is that everyone knows Banksy doesn't have one.
Seemed like an innocent statement to me.
I must of missed the part where he said he met him and shook his hand or is that an assumption we are now going to run with?

It is possible that BNE doesn't have the final count with all the Paypal stuff going on. Why don't you raise it with Paypal? I think it is a valid concern. Even if BNE did provide an answer which he probably will, you wouldn't believe it. You have your mind made up so go to Paypal.
