Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by Johnnyroyale on Apr 28, 2014 13:13:42 GMT 1, you're asking for a refund and have received a tee or no? it seems easy enough to get a refund if a person wanted to return a tee (e.g., the Faile) they've received...[/quote]
I've not recieved anything yet but yes my intention would be to return it if and when it arrives.

I still have 10 to 20 pairs of size 12 Jordans new in the box. What's the best way to turn those into a charitable donation? Not necessarily for charity water though. Sell on ebay and then donate the proceeds? Any other options?

I'd go through ebay charity auctions. That way you don't pay listing fees, you'll probably get more traffic and people are generally willing to bid a bit more knowing it's going to charity.

The worst part is when people make you feel bad that you are just buying it and do not care about the charity. Almost all of your bidders will just want the product... just be fine with that as the money is going where you want it. All this talk in other threads about not caring about the charity or whatever is just silly.

Any other options? ebay is the easiest and most transparent way to make sure the money goes to charity. Pick your charity and then select 100% and it goes to charity. I am not sure how you write it off, if that is your concern, but I would bid on ebay 100% auctions more often than someone saying they are donating XX amount after purchase.

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by A.R.T. on May 2, 2014 22:11:20 GMT 1, The Collaborative T-Shirt Update: We will be announcing the final edition size and total donation amount on Tuesday, May 13. At this point, it looks like we will still be able to donate the original $35,000 that we raised on World Water Day. 30K from tees, 3,500 from the original Rubylith piece that Shepard donated, and an extra 1,500 that we threw in to make an even 35K. $35,000 = clean and safe drinking water for 1,700+ people. This donation to a new NPO will not be made until all tees have been delivered. Shipping should begin around the the last day of May-first week of June. Artwork will not be posted on IG until shipping begins. If you have claimed a refund, you cannot re-order the collaborative tee, so please don't ask. Once again, Banksy has not made any t-shirts for a water charity. Thanks for caring!

I'm so confused. Who is the "charity" he is referring to? I'm assuming it won't be Charity:Water.

... never assume ... but you are correct not charity:water 
still ... sitting on an alleged $35k in your bank account can't be bad, although the orig $35k sum to charity did not include the previous campaigns monies ... but what is a missing few grand between friends (allegedly)
love this bit ... 'and an extra $1,500 that WE THREW IN ...'

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by Broth on May 3, 2014 0:57:28 GMT 1, I'll only believe the final tallies if he shows up the paypal tally. he's saying that he sold roughly 3000 tees at $100 a pop? Even after this debacle? Is that likely? i forget what he jumped the prices to, but there's just no way.
my guess: this money came from the oversell of all the 'limited' shirts he sold. and he's got a lot more of it.

Banksy+BNE for World Water Day, by behaviorist on May 3, 2014 1:23:34 GMT 1, 3000 may be accurate, but I doubt he's saying that, as it would amount to 300k. you likely meant 300 tees, which I agree is highly suspect. Nothing BNE says is to be trusted at this point, and I love that he's refusing to sell tees to people who have cancelled orders in what must clearly be an attempt to stick it to them. What happened to your charitable spirit, BNE? More like you're bein' mean!

"Collaborative T-Shirt Update: Enough of you cared about the cause that we were still able to reach our goal of selling 500 tees! So, we will be able to make a $35,000 donation after tees have been delivered. With your support, we've raised $40,670 for clean water projects in the last two months. Our goal is to reach 50K before the end of summer. Water-related diseases kill more people than all forms of violence, including war. 50K is just a drop in the bucket, but it is enough to help about 2,500 people gain access to clean and safe drinking water. Thanks for supporting! We are hoping to start shipping tees during the first week of June. If you have questions about your order, please email info@bne.org. Caps and more tees coming soon."

Therefore email Paypal and you'll have your money in no time
