Banksy Morons Print, by tranceport185 on Mar 8, 2007 18:13:28 GMT 1, Walker is the king of milking images, pulls it off again with a "black" version of mona simpson....(sigh) Interesting even though it is a limited run of "70" that it sells out in seconds while the regular 750 run of Mona is moving sooo slow. Then those Faile prints I swear I saw a while back on the Faile website. I can't wait for the blue version of Che and a rerelease of Applause....

Banksy Morons Print, by finsburyparkranger on Mar 8, 2007 18:17:00 GMT 1, Why would you want a print overprinted with another one of another artist from POW? Its just more 'media on media'. A tired concept often used to sell partner brands. Todays's releases are more than poor in my opinion. They are insulting. Especially at these prices. It feels like its the day POW lost its soul. I'm here for Banksy's stuff, not this tosh.

Banksy Morons Print, by thetongue on Mar 8, 2007 18:25:26 GMT 1, I bought a Faile because I enjoy them. Everything else comes secondary to my Faile collection. The real question is... How many people that are doubting these Faile prints actually own one or have seen one in person? I'd rather buy the ugliest Faile hand-made print than some of the mass runoffs of someone with a more accessible image.
Yep, seen some in person. Still do nothing for me.

Truth is quite a few people missed out and are now pissed off - so are turning their disappointment on the art... Pls remember Faile are bonafide street artists...
As they're in London be sure to look out for some of their installs on the streets...

Banksy Morons Print, by Ripper1331 on Mar 8, 2007 19:38:07 GMT 1, If you look closely at the consistency of the paint it looks like those are stencils that are sprayed onto misprint paper - so they are not printed per se but originals.
Has anyone noticed the faile prints are over printed on whatulookin at, shat-at, and insetct kid big head. POW using up old paper....

When i saw Black Mona i burst out laughing. Folks I work with... came over and laughed too.
So much so I almost missed the chance to buy one.
I think it's a fantastic spin on the original idea. For some folks that makes it worth while - spin it around make people think - and of course make people laugh - hopefully at the same time.

Well that was a stroke of pure genius on my behalf, the day i go away for work something happens. I suppose there's always a chance at a banksy later, unless of course 'Mr carpet bagger software reserve man' buys the lot without even being at his computer the nano-second they are released..
how did faile manage to print wotulookin-at (albeit in the background) before eelus puts it on his site.....or did i miss that too?

just a thought, you could give you're fellow members a heads up with a link or whatever to download this software you refer to. share and share a like, PM me if you want to keep the information private and the lurkers out there won't benefit as they would if posted on a thread.

on the other hand, it also means that thomas won't be able to bag a load for forum members

Banksy Morons Print, by Montubu7 on Mar 8, 2007 23:13:14 GMT 1, Johnas 1 per household rules does apply, BUT if you have a number of mates who are happy to accept stuff thats easy to get round using a specific credit card! Obs im not going to post here but Googling around & a bit of checking will show you that - i Did it on Dolk che when they limited it to 1, me & a mate wanted one when they were down to about 20 or so prints, he was at work so i used my card to buy one for me ( at my address) and one for him ( same card - his address) & both arrived AOK!
What i may do is if a few people want to leave a message with an email address in, if anything pops up i will just fire an auto email out to say theres new stuff up on Pow. I dont really want to share it around yet for a number of reasons, one being its not 100%.
I managed to get a faile in my baskey today but wasnt keen on that print so manually removed it, a short while after another popped up and went in my basket - thats the one i wanted so checked out. Also i need to be near the computer as auto check out after 20 mins would just take anything out the basket anyway, so if its out Friday/saturday im screwed!

not really more of a frustrated comment about the poor state of play when it becomes necessary for people to rely on software to get an honest shot at a print.
Naturally as this type of thing gets better known the unscrupulous players will use it for all the wrong reasons just like ticket scalpers hitting sites like Ticketmaster.
If your motives are honourable though, then you are one of a rare breed and more respect to you
right, i'd better get my sorry ass to the back of the queue

I dont own a single Banksy yet ( Not for lack of trying & i cant really afford ebay prices) so if i need to resort to this ( & if it works?) to grab one i will happily do that, although if its not one of the two im after i will probably just release it from my basket so someone else can grab it ( MAYBE A SCALPER?) With the faile i could have got the 2 prints, but let one go back into the wild to uk art prints!

Can do it with american express platinum- by adding alternative addresses and haveing it force authorised by phoning them. Useless in this case though, as POW don't take AMEX

If these are stencilled, I would not mind get hold of one even if I do not like the idea of buying prints from there.
