Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by curiousgeorge on Mar 27, 2014 22:34:04 GMT 1, I have read every post in this thread and the one thing I cannot shake. There is for sure some obvious personal agenda going on here in the background from Bucky. It seems he is a total douche and wanted a scoop rather then alert us fellow collectors that he had some damning eveidence from PC to contradict BNE's x Banksy release. It's sad that one clown held back details to only help himself in the end. Nice community spirit! SMH - f**k YOU BUCKY Bucky Turco has history on this forum.So much so, they felt the need to delete the all the posts and the account. Clearly more to this than meets the eye!

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by randomname on Mar 27, 2014 23:33:35 GMT 1, Any know of any good deals on a TV at the moment ?. I have a 60" Samsung plasma. Great picture. Combined with B&W surround sound, it's better than going to the theater.
As far as deals go, I'd check online. Saved $1,000 over going to a big box store.

Of course pest control would deny it before anyway if it was real though. Was bound sure to be a secretive affair. a lot of people have said this, but I think that misses the mark so completely it boggles me people still ask it. Surely the question should be, why didn't bne release the information he wasn't collaborating with Banksy before the sale of the t-shirt went live? How you can possibly expect a higher standard out of the person who was reporting on a sale than the guy that's selling it is just asinine.
Really, if BNE had done that, and said hey, this may not be happening, i need more time (or whatever) this wouldn't have been an issue at all. To blame anyone other than the guy that deliberately misled people seems like revisionist history.
BNE just needs to put his story out there so this can all go the way of the outis thread.

I'm questioning when he released his information, but do not get that twisted- I 100% put everything about this cluster on bne....No question about that.

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by Broth on Mar 28, 2014 1:13:27 GMT 1, When I finally got thru to Stephany about my refunds, she told me that she thought I was Animal and that he's supposedly creating fake accounts to write to her email as well as thru Instagram.
Clusterfuck.
I'm not holding my breath that something meaningful comes out of this 'message' from BNE tonight. I have a feeling it will be more confusing shit and finger-pointing at Animal for causing the whole scam nonsense.
Oh yeah, Stephany told me that if it wasn't for Animal no one would be saying this is a scam. I corrected her: If it wasn't for Animal we'd still be expecting phantom Banksy shirts.

Of course pest control would deny it before anyway if it was real though. Was bound sure to be a secretive affair. Surely the question should be, why didn't bne release the information he wasn't collaborating with Banksy before the sale of the t-shirt went live? Well my personal opinion is there was in fact a plan for this and probably conversations with Banksy and for whatever reason BNE thought it was good to go and it was not come game time. Once the cat was out of the bag I am sure there was a very quick "wait a minute I never said XYZ" et cetera and the plan fell through. I also think that is why there was so much desperation in the aftermath that something might eventually work out...and who knows it may but the ship has sailed IMO. I think it would be an enormous stretch for anyone to think BNE conjured up this entire scam and promoting the hell out of it all over and it only gets called out that day? ya right. The plan fell through or BNE misinterpreted a conversation but I am going with the former. If it was a scam from day one my guess is you certainly would have heard from PC/Banksy prior. Just to play devils advocate, hell for all we know Banksy could be the one that made a verbal deal and backed out on BNE the last minute. Point is there is no way BNE knew from day one that this was going to be an enormous scam. Certainly not defending BNE, I just refuse to believe a scam of this level could have happened without a peep from anyone prior. Not like PC has much else to do besides answer emails and sift through shady ebay listings

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by Deleted on Mar 28, 2014 2:37:03 GMT 1, FACTS
1. If you bought this shirt because you wanted a Banksy T and you do/don't care about this charity there is nothings wrong with you 2. If you got a refund because of this mess and confusion, you 100% have the right to do so 3. Charity:water is a solid organization and it sucks they have been hurt in any way by this 4. If you have posted 10x in this forum because you are pissed you didn't get a tee that's worth 10x what you paid, you have serious problems and a completely F'd perspective 5. If your name is not BNE or Banksy, you don't actually know what happened here 6. BNE made a mistake, it could be assuming he had his deal in the bag when he actually didn't which perhaps was shortsighted and not malicious, or he completely stole money. He is trying to do damage control either as a result of the situation and his desire to keep his charity in tact, or because he is scamming us, WE DO NOT KNOW. 7. There is no reason to argue, as you have the ability to believe whatever story you want, and also to act accordingly by getting you $$$ back, donating to charity:water, or doing nothing.
The truth may never come out, but making accusations with 100% conviction for any case is ridiculous. We should all just push for BNE or Banksy to give us the truth and get it over with, so that our hard earned money goes where we intended, for whatever reason that may be.

Last time I checked, you don't require the services of a developer to update your social media sites.

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by BKBOI on Mar 28, 2014 3:37:37 GMT 1, Paypal has frozen his account and will not unfreeze it unless he puts out a detailed documentation of the entire event (which by the sound of the paypal representative is a very long time). I really wish him well but I hope he tries to clear things up before moving forward with another sale. If he uses a different paypal account to collect more money, I think that is really the final draw for me.
I have also emailed Bucky that if they wanted to be considered real journalists, they should get a court order for Paypal to release the actual number of orders that went through the BNE account during the hour that the buy buttons were up.
