Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by Rouen Cathedral on Sept 10, 2017 19:32:02 GMT 1, Still waiting for a good reason as to why these were posted on the site before actually being available. Lol! Try stomping your feet a bit harder or shaking your fist in an annoyed manner.
Sure. Will it get me an answer?
Or will the fanboys just turn their heads like they do for the greatest artist of all time? Lol

Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by Dungle on Sept 10, 2017 19:49:22 GMT 1, This thread acts as a perfect summary as to what is wrong with the 'scene', and also why no Banksy print will be released again.
Greed and ego's galore.

But I want more on the real art that's great... that actually is virtual art that is great.... no that is actually real art that's great!
So which one is great? Please enlighten me with some thinking and the idea of a concept!

Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by nobokov on Sept 10, 2017 20:03:34 GMT 1, Still waiting for a good reason why the mug hasn't shipped yet. I mean seriously, don't put it on your website if you aren't going to ship on the same day! I just left a one star review and I urge everyone to do the same. Preposterous!! Does it advertise one days shipping? Nope Does it advertise items in store only? Yup Your comparison is quite lame. Try again maybe. You're right, Banksy is a turd. Sorry, didn't see the light before.
Neither state the time of availability in store or shipping. Hence the comparison.

Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by highflyer on Sept 10, 2017 20:09:19 GMT 1, Hate to burst his bubble but nowhere does it mention that this is a Banksy...
It's just the Banksy items state they are Banksy designs:
"A Banksy art print housed in a cheap Ikea frame with an actual chiseled off piece of wall. NIS 575 each, available in store only"
But the sculptures...well, don't.
"A mini stretch of separation wall decorated with recreations of well-loved graffiti. Lovingly hand painted by local craftspeople. Available in store only, prices starting from NIS 450."
"A miniature reproduction of the hotel’s iconic electronic key fobs. Made from enhanced polymer resin. Available in store only. NIS 90 / hand painted with figure NIS 230"
So, something tells me, they are not Banksy pieces at all. Only the print is...

But it's okay cause I'm banksy and my fans will support me no matter what. Not really. I don't count myself as a "fan." I get a chuckle out of his work and have a WCP version of heart balloon girl and one of those unauthorized Bombhugger sculptures, but wouldn't hang most of his prints if I could afford them. So really you're barking up the wrong tree and trying to apply your tired argument in too many directions.
I'm just tired of seeing you on every Banksy related thread. I'd imagine most are, not because they're fans of banksy, but simply because of your nonsensical arguments.
I'm slowly learning though that maybe one shouldn't engage with such individuals, like you wouldn't engage in a discussion with one of those on the street holding a megaphone, ranting about life and theories. It just wouldn't end well, and likely just wouldn't end.

You know what would be great art. If he took everyone's money that bought mugs and t shirts and such and donated it to a good cause. And then didn't send any of the merchandise out. Now that would be a great concept!!!
I'm sure that would be met with praise right? And all who got duped would chalk it up to great conceptual art!

Doesn't NIS stand for New Israeli shekil? Could be wrong but thought that was the Palestinian currency. If I am wrong thanks for putting me right.

Banksy, Walled Off Hotel, GIFT SHOP, by GMA on Sept 11, 2017 9:34:32 GMT 1, If anyone was still awaiting confirmation that this was the case, the Walled Off website now says the print is unsigned and an open edition Amazing, I'm pleased with that. It gives everyone a chance to pick one up/order one when they visit the hotel. Obviously, one day the hotel will probably shut, I don't expect it to be open for years but I'm sure it'll be around for a couple yet.

I know they said it sold out, but haven't heard of anyone seeing one in real life. It was a preorder... probably because they knew these would be hard to get back in your luggage. No time given for shipping, so could be a few months before anyone gets one. I also assume it's a very small edition... maybe 10-25? Hopefully someone got one and can let us know... or one will appear at auction within a few months with details!

They were collection only and the hotel cannot arrange shipping of any kind - apparently very difficult to take anything out of Palestine - therefore collection in person only - How you get over the border through scanners is another question as could constitute a weapon.

Considered the trip purely as an experience and not via the gift shop. Reading the craziness in this thread I'm going to order another gin and tonic and may be have a swim. For those who are there I hope you take something away from your trip and not necessarily something by Banksy.
