Banksy โข Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Viking Surfer on Apr 24, 2017 23:18:50 GMT 1, The COAs are generally signed I think by Simon or Holly. That looks pretty similar to Simon's signature on some COAs I have here... I'd suggest checking with Pest Control. i agree. do you have me a fast contact to Pest Control? i have to let doublecheck it as soon as possible.
Pest control will usually contact the auction house and have the listing removed too if its fake.
I've alerted them a few times.

I'm not sure what the paper is like on genuine prints but it seems quite an odd location to have creases

I'm not sure what the paper is like on genuine prints but it seems quite an odd location to have creases On the subject of paper, the paper seems very white. This can be a trick of the flash photography or the light in the room but, in reality, the paper for GWRB is more a cream rather than pure white. |

If your names not Bob you join the back of the queue, for everything....
In my experience PC are rapid at confirming authenticity of a print or registered owner if you are about to buy. If you want change of ownership chances are you will wait a while, ive never applied for COA but seems you wait a while for that too, unless your called Bob.

But Im sure forum members would be curious (and would appreciate) to hear if the auction house is just offering this up to the next person or is taking serious action.

yesterday and this morning i wrote both (auction house and gallery) what they will do now? because it is also in their interests and reputation, i also recommended to contact PC, to go for sure. so i want wait a few days if they will make a statement or so, or if they just ignore the issue.
i just can say, they both are based in france (and it is not artspace as mentioned :-)
thank you for your patience.

Banksy โข Girl With Red Balloon Print, by geminii on Jun 12, 2017 20:48:39 GMT 1, Taking a deep breath as I post this. I've owned it since the middle of last decade, when I bought it because I loved it. It's been framed and on my wall since purchase, and although it was done professionally, over the years the mount has stained the edges of the print all round. The good news is that this is just the very edge, below the stamp,and does not show once framed. It has Pest Control COA in my name and which I guarantee is authentic, as I took the print up person because they needed it in hand to check before issuing. It is currently unframed but attached to the mount at the back of the print, at the top, like a hinge by two small pieces of tape. I've left these in place along with the mount for protection and will sell like this. Other than the edge discolouration it appears fine otherwise and is perfectly flat having been framed. Please look carefully at all photos for condition. It's the right time for me to part with it as there are things I now need to do more than look at my art. I would want to meet the buyer in person and receive a bank transfer directly to my account, as I've done with other fairly recent sales. I'm located on the Surrey/Hants border. I will not ship by any method for protection of both me and purchaser. The difficult bit is that I'm not 100% certain of the value in this condition (and am fully prepared to deal with time wasters!) and would be grateful for advice. Please PM me if interested.

I hope this finds a good home, plenty of people will accept the condition , however I can add nothing on price other than out of my reach ......
