Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by LoveRat on May 21, 2006 0:10:42 GMT 1, just realised, shouldn't signed Toxic Mary have the older POW stamp on it ? I think signed ones were sold out before the introduction of POW Printmaking stamp . Can anyone confirm this ? Mine has the older stamp and is signed on the grey, same as yours Police Aware

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by dill on May 21, 2006 0:49:30 GMT 1,
the bogus rat sketch has sold..the bidders were
leom9259 (i believe he was the winning bidder) mattmauction paulcackett peterjg99 samwize6969 schriber- 1
obviously that sale has ended but it might be worth warning Leom not to pay (or any of the others as i can't be absolutely sure which of them is the winner)
Virgin mary (FAKE) has the following bidder 4121louise (i think she is the top bidder ...but not positive) chappkp johnpud3731 rottenbidder
it's not that i want to be troublesome but if the were friends or relatives of mine i would like to warn them ...i don't know what anyone else thinks but i think that is what i should do ...and now the ripoffa rtist is selling a shark sketch.....lets get him guys! please advise

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by stencilope on May 21, 2006 3:11:58 GMT 1, This oughta scare 'im! Hee hee.
Ebay Question for Seller:
I see you have yet another print for sale. One might think you would have been smart enough not to try that more than a few times. Ebay is very helpful in these matters, and previous high bidders of your Banksy auctions have been notified and given your personal information.
Be aware as well, that if any other falsified Banksy pieces come up under any account controlled by you, one of our people WILL be the winning bidder of one or more of them, as legal counsel informs us that then a much broader assortment of legal and criminal prosecution options exist to use against you. Have a nice day you pathetic wanker.
Hmmm. Wonder if he'll end this auction early now.....

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by wezzley on May 21, 2006 4:28:28 GMT 1, yeah this guy is taking the piss bigtime. Its not on at all misleading in that way. Sell as a replica, fine, but sell as an original.. that crosses the line. Id be suprised if ebay do anything, they are quite useless. What about sabotaging his auctions, although that could be counterproductive and draw more attention to them..?

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by dill on May 21, 2006 4:40:48 GMT 1, I think I know what the toxic mary scam is ...he bought an unsigned one from print republic faked a signature on it and tried to sell it..
a few people pointed out that there was something wrong because signed virgin marys were not numbered out of 600.
He then ended the sale. took out a rubber changed the number on it and then put it back up for sale. that would explain how he has a bill from art republic. and why the same print has had two different numbers.
there must also be a connection between this t**t and the fake love rat /barcode shark ripp off merchant because they share the same photocopied signature,
actually gaining pecunary advantage by deception is a criminal offence...technically theft.
i think e bay must be informed ...because having a rip off artist selling fake banksies in our midst affects us all.
So we need to all start coplaining to ebay....that's what i reckon

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by policeaware on May 21, 2006 8:09:43 GMT 1, Funnily enough I have a print exactly the same as the shark but due to a recent spate of flying elephant attacks I've been forced to list it as well !!

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by policeaware on May 21, 2006 8:32:14 GMT 1, I've posted the original/ revised post again so it doesn't get missed, due to the seller removing the pictures from previous listings I have inserted screen captures so they don't disappear.
I know its been touched on before but the Toxic Mary has appeared and with the feeling that the rat is fake and now a shark as well it appears that it's the same signature on all items even though they are from 2 different sellers.
I'm very suspicious of these listings, from different IDs, both with bidders identity hidden and all with what looks to me like the same signature picture !!?
Toxic Mary signature
The seller has listed a Toxic Mary before with a number of 99 / 600 and guess what ? ..... yep it had the same signature !!
Notice how the signature has moved on the print !!
Item number 6630078333
Rat sketch signature
Item numbers 6631237201 & 6630650788
The latest addition to the collection is the fake signed shark print item number 6631520077: and yes you guessed it the same signature again !!
[glow=red,2,300]Given that both sellers have listed and sold exactly the same 'UNIQUE' item before and choose to keep bidding ids private I wouldn't touch their stuff with a bargepole.[/glow]

Policeaware , could you tell me if this is the rarer edition with "FAKE" hand sprayed on the front or is it printed?

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by policeaware on May 21, 2006 9:35:27 GMT 1, This is the rarer version with fake hand written in crayon.
Interestingly I can also supply this on a roll with perforated sheets for use in that Banksy inspired bog !!

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by thekevster on May 21, 2006 10:07:17 GMT 1, How how strange, as soon as banksy.co.uk is updated with some sketches they are suddenly appearing on ebay as signed prints
That is strange....
expect to see custardised oil painting or 'most things look better when you put them in a circle' prints
Hang on, 'Most things look better when they are real!'

the only problem with that Wezzley ,is that Ebay tend to come down on you rather than the seller. Also I have had a couple of warnings for sending unsolicited emails to bidders

Banksy Toxic Mary, Virgin Mary Print, by numusic on May 21, 2006 11:44:22 GMT 1, Hi guys, Im confused, previously only bought through POW but recently discovered ebay..maybe someone should list the original signiture, POW stamp types (new and old), and previous histories of where they could be bought. The poor guy in Australia has no way of knowing this. There's a Victoria and Love is in the air on ebay.. are they real ? unsigned, and the vixctoria unnumbered.. ! was gonna bid but they came across this debate, now not too sure.

seller has dropped the reserve on the toxic mary, I bet the auction is ended and sold to the current bidder once reserve is met before the opportunity to fleece someone has gone !!!
Loverat: make me a rediculously unreasonable fake offer and get it endorsed by Lord Lucan and we might have a deal on my cheap, nasty worthless rubbish print
