Not all LN's have a blind stamp (including signed ones). Just compared numbering to mine, but find it hard to call on this as other than the 600 the other numbers are different so hard to compare.

Thats the problem, i've never sold anything on ebay and only bought a couple of things so my rating would be awful. Doesn't mean that i would be selling fakes though does it?.

why is it a classic warning? You have individuals like Tinternetdon, who has over 1000 in feedback and sells questionable works by Banksy and other artists all day long. Just because someone doesnt sell many pieces via ebay, doesnt make them dodgy. Easy solution would be arrange to meet at POW or have sellers details verified via POW before paying.
Back in the early days, there were no set rules on how the prints were signed, numbered or blindstamped.

I meant the unsigned print that gooooglemale mentioned. Not that big lump of plastic

my signed LN doesnt have a blindstamp. some were numbered on the left and some on the right......mine's signed on the right and numbered on the left......POWs print numbering was pretty random in the old days

Banksy's on eBay โข Real or Fake?, by craigf on May 8, 2011 7:46:39 GMT 1, I got a good reply from the seller of the LN. He bought it from Santa's Ghetto and has applied for COA from POW. I can't see the yellowing CG is referring to, but that might just be my bad eyesight  . It has jumped in price since yesterday, but is still looking cheap
