IMPORTANT - Banksy news from Pest Control , by Inknart on May 27, 2019 0:15:51 GMT 1, I reached out, it sounds like they will put you in touch with a reputable resale gallery. They’re not selling pieces direct. Just basically brokering the deal. Thank you. So, would there be anything to stop private sales? Any implication for choosing not to use their proposed service?

So they are basically just directing buyers to higher priced sales.
If this is the full extent that’s just laughable.

IMPORTANT - Banksy news from Pest Control , by jimbofatz on May 27, 2019 3:40:04 GMT 1, Banksy should just set himself up at art fairs and suck everyone off for sales like a real fine artist.
At this point becoming an authorized banksy dealer is going to be like opening an apple store.

IMPORTANT - Banksy news from Pest Control , by Fake on May 27, 2019 7:52:42 GMT 1, Banksy is just trying to make sure his fans don't get ripped off. I think it is great he is now doing this.
The system he has in place also makes sure he knows who are true fans and is not selling his new prints and originals to re-sellers or people who are trying to make a profit.
I think this is the reason you almost don't see any new originals on the market. Once you sell one you will get on the blacklist.

So if you sell a banksy work for a profit you aren’t a true fan?
Unfortunately I believe most on this forum that owned a banksy work at some point would fit that bill.
Like I said just another case of the fans buying the feel good. ‘Make sure his fans don’t get ripped off’. Yeah okay.

I am saying if you buy to sell for a profit they will see that and you will not be able to buy directly from the source anymore. Unless you never registert the COA to your name that is. |

If you contacted them they let you know about authenticity.
Not sure how people can comment they are doing something more now to protect the buyers.
Banksy is a master of PR spin.

IMPORTANT - Banksy news from Pest Control , by Bruggs on May 27, 2019 18:08:39 GMT 1, I purchased an edition of 100 CYW from a local forum member in Chicago. We negotiated the deal and met in a reputable frame shop (many forum members use) for inspection. We used the gallery owner as the middle man as I intended to frame with him. We then met at a large bank and transferred funds in exchange for COA. This entire transaction took place over multiple days and we were able to do this deal in person. We talked for weeks in advance of the sale... All of this was documented with bill of sale signed by both parties.
This was all presented to PC and they transferred ownership to me within a couple of months. They did not seem to have any issue with this type of transaction. I think they are simply trying to help out with more remote transactions where a face to face meetup is not possible. I think we all know finding the "right" piece by Banksy can be difficult and even more difficult to find in your city. My guess (not that I know much) is they are trying to help out when tens of thousands (or more) dollars are being wired between little known acquaintances who have never seen each other's face... Anyone can claim to be a gallery...

I should think Pest Control will eventually post up more information on there site about the sales service, explaining in more detail what it involves and the rules. Just a matter of wait and see I think.

The member I got it from is long gone or under his 6th username... not much I can do nearly a decade after the fact anyway !

Well I've got no intention of selling it, so its pointless ruining it if it turns out to be fake/stolen.

The issue often divides firmly held opinion.
For my own part, I see it now as part of the rich history of Banksy. It forms part of that interesting and exciting story. The passage of time contributes to this opinion, I concede.
They will never be authenticated, as you know zero. As such they will always be relatively cheap compared to authenticated works.

I wonder what percentage of backdoors are fake?
I don't know if I'd be happy buying a fake fake
Or is it a fake fake isn't it more a PP? so it would be a PP fake?
