Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by oldraver on Oct 8, 2017 9:38:11 GMT 1, Looks to me the discussing of negative values, flipping longevity and general moaning about quality and quantity is coming from individuals who either can’t afford to go (which is fine) don’t want to go (also fine) or have serious personal gripe issues that you are struggling to put into words on your computer (also fine in moderation)

Yep sounds about right,
For an unlimited print, eBay isn’t exactly flooded with them, More Shepard fairey prints end up on eBay than these after he drops one of his editions of 450.
Apparently only around 140 box sets have been sold from the hotel already, small numbers in terms of banksy prints.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by tab1 on Oct 9, 2017 3:07:48 GMT 1, Especially the plight of the Palestinians whom the Jews treat much as the Germans treated the Jews in the early years. Normally I don't comment on politics, but in this case I changed my mind. The Palestinians are not treated fairly, but never ever treated as the Jews during Hitlers government. There are no gas chambers, mass execution, labour camps, etc. Maybe visting Auschwitz or Yad Vashem..then comparing again. Thanks
Early years quoted , before the introduction of the gas chambers
Jewish people during the early 30s Initially segregated from their home population and given ID cards which is what’s happening there (westbank ) now with the people being displaced from their homes , ld cards, zones a,b,c ..isreal is making life harder for the palestians , goal is to drive existing people from homelands many have emigrated one family spoke to on trip have family in South Africa , Chile, Peru and England ,
but nothing can change what is happening there , un , America ,no joy
You would think all the suffering and persecution suffered during ww2 by the Jewish community they would understand and not use these nazism traits on humankind.
A few hardliners does not mean a hard approach is needed on all the community.
Interesting that Argentina and South Africa was in the pot for isreal to be formed

"In six polls during the last decade, an average of 59% of Palestinians backed the view that “suicide bombing and other forms of violence against civilian targets are justified in order to defend Islam from its enemies”
"83% of Palestinians asserted — regarding the area from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea — that “this is Palestinian land and Jews have no rights to it”; only 12% agreed that “both Jews and Palestinians have rights to the land.”"
"Palestinians were asked whether it was morally right or wrong to deny that “Jews have a long history in Jerusalem going back thousands of years.” Seventy-two percent said it was right. "
" as 53% of Palestinians declined to call the 9/11 attacks terrorism. "
Not going any deeper than saying that your definition of 'few' is different than mine.

The % of people of the country interviewed for the statistics ?
Could be 10 people or 100000 people interviewed?
Could be a political group was asked their views, so might
Not the whole voice of all
Surely not the whole country , many are illiterate and you have nomadic tribes
Where did you get this source of information?
Stats are manipulated for set agendas occasionally
Those sort of stats can be misleading
Obviously a big problem in this country that unfortunately will never be resolved

Because the hotel has a strict only one print / one item policy per room (and not even per person)
Right now prices are down because there's a few too many on Ebay as ppl need to pay for their trip, but I am convinced price will increase as soon as the hotels closes.
it won't reach the height that the Bethlehem cave editions did, but it will for sure go over the current ebay $2500...

I'd imagine if the lure of boxse's and other goodies dry up, visitor number will drop off a cliff causing early closure of the hotel, which I am sure "Team Banksy" would like to avoid!

So the hotel is closing any minute now?
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen people get multiple items. Can anyone confirm?

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by tab1 on Oct 9, 2017 12:19:18 GMT 1, Im sure the hotel is long term , so many years to come !
Read somewhere this first year is to get initial funds back to set up the hotel as financed through banksy team.
Rooms were easy to pick before the print now they’re booked well in advance .
How many original banksys in the hotel?
They could be the next prints to come to keep the travellers coming ? Cheetah and lamb next ?pillow fight ?
Too much spent on furbishment and all the originals painted on walls , I see the hotel staying , a lot of options left , some people have travelled there on 4 separate occasions!

I heard a change up in April, the artist rooms are supposed to evolve so no reason why the rest wont.
The paintings can be sold, if not already.
The glory of it being his own hotel, is you can paint many a mural... so they are worthless in a sense that they wont dictate the buildings future
Plenty of rooms available for the current sales.
The furbishment is most tat/recycled apart from the bathrooms etc that as as good as you can expect to see anywhere !!
With all that said, im hoping winter continues to be kinda slow so I can go back and stay in the presidential suite

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by tab1 on Oct 9, 2017 13:53:46 GMT 1, Im sure the hotel is long term , so many years to come ! Read somewhere this first year is to get initial funds back to set up the hotel as financed through banksy team. Rooms were easy to pick before the print now they’re booked well in advance . How many original banksys in the hotel? They could be the next prints to come to keep the travellers coming ? Cheetah and lamb next ?pillow fight ? Too much spent on furbishment and all the originals painted on walls , I see the hotel staying , a lot of options left , some people have travelled there on 4 separate occasions! I heard a change up in April, the artist rooms are supposed to evolve so no reason why the rest wont. The paintings can be sold, if not already. The glory of it being his own hotel, is you can paint many a mural... so they are worthless in a sense that they wont dictate the buildings future Plenty of rooms available for the current sales. The furbishment is most tat/recycled apart from the bathrooms etc that as as good as you can expect to see anywhere !! With all that said, im hoping winter continues to be kinda slow so I can go back and stay in the presidential suite
The staff in the hotel say that the building is leased, the supposed owner came in one day whilst staying there

Violence isn't caused by a small group. It's caused by wide, casual support which provides fertile ground for the radicalization of the disaffected and the support needed for violence to be embraced. It's what allows the Palestinian Authority to continue to pay rewards to the families of terrorists who attack Israel and kill Israeli citizens. The greater the crime, the higher the pay-out. ( www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2017/04/28/palestinians-are-rewarding-terrorists-the-u-s-should-stop-enabling-them/?utm_term=.142df952bbf6 )
For source of my comment in the post earlier: www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-polisar-palestinian-public-opinion-20151112-story.html Yes, it is an op-ed. Yes, it is written by an Israeli, but it is based on the review of 350 opinion polls from various international sources. And the author is a respected academic. Take it or leave it as the context dictates for you.
And it's not worth arguing statistics, we're not making policy decisions here. Opinion polls, conducted by international, Palestinian and Israeli agencies, are what they are. Their existence, versus 'I think' or 'I'd like to think' or 'sounds good to me' means the support for 'few hardliners' is outweighed by the recognition that there are far more than a few holding ideas we may find anathema. It's 'evidence' vs. 'no evidence'.
