Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by Nuno on Mar 21, 2018 21:46:48 GMT 1, In this case don't listen to irl1 as he obviously hasn't seen this kind of receipt and stone and therefore thinks it's fake. I'll post my receipt in a couple of minutes. I don't remember how the hanger looked. Sorry i have seen these. I have a few of them. I also have an Ikea box set. I am 100% sure the receipt is fake, not 99% 100%. On another note, there is two box sets on this receipt, do you think the seller gave him the original? Look i am not trying to sell anything, these items are fake and i can tell this by looking at them. Look at the paper receipt and look at the postcards (the back of them) no chance are they real not in a million years. I have seen fakes before but these are the worst fakes yet!
The postcards are definitely from the souvenir shop next to the hotel.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by Pysgod on Mar 21, 2018 21:53:40 GMT 1, You're accusing someone of selling fake items so I hope you're 100% sure of what you're saying? Someone else has said it looks legit. Ill bet by the end of the night you will have loads saying there fake. I will put up real ones in a few mins. Also i will put up the postcards. I have noting to gain and could have just passed this thread. I have had crap thrown at me here for ages, but water off a ducks back. I am telling you 100% sure these are fakes !!!! and if not you should be banned, you are nothing but a flipper, shill bidding, dishonest, scare mongering parasite that has been nothing but stupid since you found this forum.

To say the receipt is fake is bs. It may be a copy, but of an original receipt. Here is my receipt. The barcode and number are pixelated, but the number is about 75 before op's, which seems ok as it's one day before his.
And as I said, the postcards are not the official ones, but from the souvenir shop next doors.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by hnkpnk on Mar 21, 2018 22:10:42 GMT 1, I've now seen a photo of the box set I bought and gave away and I imagined it a lot whiter than it was. So I take back my comments about the stone. Sorry about that.
The receipt looks good, but probably is a copy of an original. The print looks good. No guarantee, though But the stone I'm not so sure about any longer. Sorry about that. It looks a bit strange with the almost polished bits. And the hanger on the back is different too on mine.
"It also came with the plastic cover I assume the frame came with in addition to the glass that is in the frame." What do you mean by "plastic cover"?

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by Aubrey 245 on Mar 21, 2018 22:32:09 GMT 1, Hard to say.. No need to talk about the Post Cards, they are clearly not from the WOH. The rest looks quite fine (hard to say from your photos), only thing strange is the stone. Those "polished" parts on top of it as well as the "curvy" bottom edge, which I think was always rather totally flat. The coloring also looks a bit unusual I think.
Ask the seller for some more evidence like residence ID, flight bookings, hotel bookings, ....
The receipt says "Payment Visa", so there should be a WOH Visa receipt or any Visa receipt from his bank.
All over it is hard to say, as they changed this item so many times.. (stone coloring, bright/dark stone, frame, receipt, ...)

The first Ikea print stone had v very grey type of rough stone look off it. (i have one but no photos, will do it tomorrow) There was some with a lot of white but that was much later on. I have never seen that type of stone, but i'm not saying it was never like that as i don't know. It looks a bit like another type of stone but well hidden with the white. Yes some of the Ikea prints had no glass just the plastic which i will show tomorrow.

I have one of the earliest box sets and a much more recent one . The stone on this one in this discussion seems odd to me ...

Someone else has said it looks legit. That receipt is a copy for sure. This guy could have been there and sold his two box sets and now he (Looks) like he's selling a fake one using his old receipt (copied) If the seller goes back looking for hotel invoice border cards etc, the seller will still have them but will use them for this one. So really what this buyer needs to do is claim the fake paypal rule and get his dough back. No point in saying what if this or that, we can all see the receipt is a copy. Another point which i already said, who in there right mind would buy two box sets on one receipt, then sell one and give away the original receipt? Never in a million years would this happen.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by Pysgod on Mar 21, 2018 23:07:07 GMT 1, Freerange mentions the light pomice stone like this one in another post
Someone posted a comparison a while back, i dont have it to hand.
The print is much darker, pomace stone mix is darker and contains stones (noticeably heavier to the touch) and the frame is ikea, but most of them were. These changed around week 2-3 to the lighter pomace stone.
maybe hit him up and see if he can shed some light on it ?
looks legit to me and cyril needs stringing up fors**t stirring but knowing f**kall.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by oldraver on Mar 21, 2018 23:40:05 GMT 1, As mentioned the postcards are from somewhere else,
First impression is:
Defiantly a weak looking receipt in terms of colour, doesn't look sharp.
the stone looks to far away from the glass, in addition to the smoothed off edges, and again the spray paint colour is not one I've seen from this time period (if ever)
For agreements sake, forget what I've or anyone else has said, you think its a fake (enough to raise it) and you do nothing you have to spend everyday looking at it and wondering!!?
Or you do the right thing that makes YOU feel better and get yourself a refund.

This user is being sold fake items, you know what i mean don't you..... Leading by example indeed... Have your little poke at me if it makes you feel better, i'm just not bothered anymore

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by Cookiemonster on Mar 21, 2018 23:57:37 GMT 1, Well another thread thats turned into the Irl1 show. Seriously bored of your "im the victim" bullshit, you come across as a very argumentative and unpleasant person. Turn it off or fuck off, this place used to be better then what it is now, but seriously enough is enough. Time for Silky or the moderators to take action.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by Pysgod on Mar 22, 2018 0:07:07 GMT 1, I received this box set from ebay. Any help anyone could offer would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. My concerns started with the chunk of wall. It seems a lot lighter than others i've seen (like a plaster) and not really chiseled it looks sanded in spots. Also the paint is not like others i've seen. This is supposed to be from the edition released in October when they were still using ikea frames The resolution on the print itself looks fine compared to anything i've seen. That defo is Pomace, The vesicles are actually gas bubbles that were trapped in the rock during the rapid cooling of a gas-rich frothy magma. The material cools so quickly that atoms in the melt are not able to arrange themselves into a crystalline structure. Thus, pumice is an amorphous volcanic glass known as a "mineraloid."
where you would get pomace stone like that in the UK to make a fake is beyond me.

Banksy • Box Set, Walled Off Hotel, by JW on Mar 22, 2018 0:20:30 GMT 1, I bought from the source a couple of days around this period and a couple from other periods (and haven't sold any - hooray for me).
My thoughts - stating up front that I don't have a firm view on yours (Edit - I'm more worried the more I look at it... but I'm only one person): - The smoothed over stone does not appear on any version from what I've seen in person. There's a curved part at the base of the front that worries me. Mine are are straight at the base, and closer to the glass. I do have a green/black version from this period that I've not seen elsewhere, so the paint is irrelevant to me. Perhaps you could post a photo of the back of the stone? - The hanger on the back is not consistent with what I have seen on any version I have. - The receipt is inconclusive. How strong are the dots in the Item Name field? If they are consistent, then it's either real or they have a great scanner/printer combo.
Some photos:
Ikea / Plexi
Ikea / Glass
Ikea / Plexi receipt - within a couple of days of OP's receipt.

Turn it off or f**koff, this place used to be better then what it is now, but seriously enough is enough. Time for Silky or the moderators to take action. I'm not the victim here, looks like the guy got stung, and i was just giving answers to his questions. Where's the harm in that? Do you see me coming into any of your threads coming on the heavy. No i mind my own business and enjoy reading about "Art", that's what this site is all about. Not my fault some come in slagging me off. How is that going to help the chap? Go through the thread from post to post then come back and say that.

Maybe because it's not an easy trip from the west coast of the US and we or I don't want to pay for a rip off?
This thread is bound to become the "what about my box set aurthenticiy thread" followed by complaining about the feed always having this thread near the top.
