Banksy Pulp Fiction Print, by kiy on Aug 21, 2007 20:10:34 GMT 1, cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330128340855
ยฃ820 buy it now.....was probably the underbidder in the first auction....and was offered a second chance offer....
Looks a bit suspect to me...
Im no handwriting expert but looks different to other 04 signitures....

Banksy Pulp Fiction Print, by kiy on Aug 21, 2007 20:14:42 GMT 1, The original story behind the sale....
"
This is a signed Pulp Fiction print that was given to me by a friend of the artist that I will not name. I believe there were a few extra prints when they did the run of Pulp Fiction prints and this is one of them. I am a big fan of Banksy and this is definately a reluctant sale as I know it will be worth alot more in only a short space of time. It has been stored flat and is in emaculate condition. This is the real thing and is definately not a fake, it will stand up to any ink, paper, signiture tests that I believe will happen in the future when Banksy's works are worth a considerable amount more. Any questions, please ask. Happy bidding! "

Banksy Pulp Fiction Print, by Pattycakes on Aug 22, 2007 9:12:34 GMT 1, In my opinion the signatures from the one sold in May and this one are identical, I'd say he's certainly trying to pull a fast one!

Banksy Pulp Fiction Print, by jonpud on Aug 22, 2007 11:04:56 GMT 1, Do not like to 'diss' anyones listing unless I am 100% positive they are trying to rip off the buyer, however in this instance I only have the photo's to go by, I feel that someone is going to be robbed here. That signature is bollocks! There are probably 3 different styles of Banksy signature, the early pen WSM type, the harder to copy Rat series and the drawn out LA version, this doesn't match with any of them. 
Would never bid on this unless John Travolta flew it over and delivered it in person together with a Royal with Cheese!!!! ;D

Banksy Pulp Fiction Print, by Pattycakes on Aug 22, 2007 11:15:37 GMT 1, Ok so I have just gone through the feedback left for the print from the seller in May (clearly I have nothing better to do at work today), and would you believe it jonjonjon723, the seller now was the original buyer.
The print was originaly sold from someone in Leicestershire, now I'm not that good at geography but somehow I don't think it's all that close to Los Angeles - where supposedly the print originates from. Anyone buying this is insane!

Sheesh
Everyone knows they filmed Pulp Fiction in Leicestershire.
This is entirely plausible.
You know that scene where Bruce Willis encounters the Gimp?....
.....Filmed in Bradford.
Certainly chimes with all my experiences when I've ventured 'oop North'

Agreed. They are identical and also they line up to be in the exact same spot as each other.
Definite 'fast one' going on here.

Odd thing to me is that one has a yellow border and the other doesn't....maybe it's the frame.

Banksy Pulp Fiction Print, by a4mnt on Aug 23, 2007 10:23:09 GMT 1, I started a thread about this print 4 months ago. I can't seem to track back 500 posts to find the link, but the conclusions were the same then. Its fake.
It still sold for around a grand then.
I'm sure its the same one

I don't suppose Mr. Laz can be bothered.

Banksy Pulp Fiction Print, by artvanderlay on Aug 25, 2007 14:44:27 GMT 1, Has anyone even considered for a moment the possibility that the signed Pulp Fiction print on sale on E-Bay is authentic and the person who has taken the lead on questioning its authenticity (foreman 101) is manipulating the bid for personal financial gain. I thinks it's ironic that the guy who happens to be the current high bidder is the same individual who has been questioning the validity of the print since it's posting. Although I am active member of the Banksy Forum and consider myself a Banksy purest (only listed on E-Bay UK) even though I am from America - I chose to take the high road and not respond to the personal attacks and let the market dictate the price and validity of my posting. But there comes a point when certain individuals have crossed the line and are contacting bidders , threatening E-Bay with legal action , and personally attacking me , that I chose to defend myself and my reputation. The print I am selling in my opinion is 100% authentic , it is not stamped by P.O.W. and it was purchased by me with that knowledge. I purposely took very close up pictures of the signature and clearly stated all the facts about the print in order to avoid any confusion. I am selling it with the understanding that it is authentic and absolutely in mint condition - I hope the buyer who purchases this item loves it as much as I do and gives it a good home - thanks , jon

do you really think for a split second that this signature is genuine? as forum leader people respect your opinion so you should think twice before giving rip-off merchants like this a semblance of credability. it could easily lead to someone losing a small fortune on this junk.

i'm 99% certain that its not real. everyone else whos posted on the subject seems to be of the same opinion. yet you've indictated that it could quite possibly be real because you've seen worse signatures than that, which might place doubts in some peoples minds.
if you can show me a picture of a genuine signature that looks worse than that I'll glady eat my hat.
