Banksy's on eBay • Real or Fake?, by Deleted on Jul 24, 2019 10:49:12 GMT 1, What happened Silky? Why are you doing this now? I know it creates more posts, helps with SEO, ebay links and affiliate marketing could help drive revenue but aren't you worried about what you're encouraging posting links to shady eBay auctions where lesser aware members may be taken advantage of? Can you tell us what's happening with the forum - are you looking to sell? Any answer Dan? You haven’t appeared on here for many months and now you posting up constant eBay threads, when it’s worked well for years being strict and not having eBay posts/threads?.
Dan, Dan, Daan, Daaaaan....

Banksy's on eBay • Real or Fake?, by barsukauk on Jul 24, 2019 11:05:44 GMT 1, I would have thought if it was genuine they would have posted a photo of the piece when it was still intact, as proof it was once at least the signature part to a real Banksy Street piece.

I appreciate your answer on the other post Dan - but I think it was a bit disingenuous. If you're looking for other ways to monetise the site just say. partnernetwork.ebay.co.uk/

Banksy's on eBay • Real or Fake?, by k2 on Jul 30, 2019 16:27:47 GMT 1, Dan, why are you posting this crap ? They are affiliate links.
If you click the link to view the crap then buy something else from eBay within 24 hours (it doesn't have to be the item from the original link) then the affiliate will receive a cut.
With respect to the owner of the site who can do what he likes of course, this sort of behaviour cheapens a forum and can rapidly alienate the membership.
Edit: There's nothing wrong with affiliate links per se, and of course there's nothing wrong with tweaking the site to help pay for itself. But perhaps a better tactic would be to automatically rewrite any eBay links that are posted organically by members to include your affiliate code, rather than posting links for the sake of it simply to generate tracked clicks.

Banksy's on eBay • Real or Fake?, by irl1 on Jul 30, 2019 16:35:59 GMT 1, This thread is for you to post about what Banksy Art is For Sale on eBay at the moment - How you spotted a bargain? Have you seen a Fake? Has something sold for a ridiculously high figure? Are you selling a Banksy on ebay? Post the ebay links on this thread so the ebay auction can be discussed. I have to say Daniel if the users on here were to post any fakes we see on ebay there would be thousands of pieces posted here.
I think it would be better to remove the "Have you seen a Fake" part and change it to "Have you seen a real Banksy"
I'm not being a smart arse but ebay is just a wash with fakes of all artists

Banksy's on eBay • Real or Fake?, by morleys on Aug 1, 2019 6:18:16 GMT 1, I love this forum, but I dont understand why you post all these messages. You are not new, and you KNOW if an original banksy item is sold less than 10k$ , you are 100% sure it's a fake. So when the most of them saw an auction like this one, we ALL knows its 100% a Fake
So I'm little afraid, if a new member read this section, saw an auction post by you, the Guardian, about a banksy auction and you have just a doubt about authenticity, the guy can buy it in case of...
Sorry for my bad english, but I suppose you understand what I want explain.
If a new member read me, you NEVER find an original Banksy for less 10k$ (FOR SURE) so if you see aBanksy for less that 10k$, be sure, it's a fake !

Yes I agree with you. Although I like to think it wouldn’t be the case it does almost seem as if Dan Silk wants new or uninformed collectors to buy these items. Strange.

Banksy's on eBay • Real or Fake?, by Daniel Silk on Aug 1, 2019 10:10:44 GMT 1, I can't see how warning people about fake Banksy pieces on eBay is a bad thing. Discouraging posts about fakes 😕 now that sounds like a very dodgy thing to be doing.

When every link to the items start with a question like “what do you think of this real or fake” it looks pretty bad.

Asking a question looks bad? Why's that?

It just comes across like you are endorsing the products because if people think that someone like you, who should be a Banksy expert is not sure about the authenticity then they might think that it’s worth the gamble, and it could cost them an awful lot of money. It’s Just my feedback, it’s your site and you can do whatever you want with it. If you want eBay clicks then you could let people post there own eBay links via the FS thread as a lot of people feel safer purchasing via eBay?

Both counterfeit, with fake POW blindstamps and fabricated backstories.
Deliberately roughed-up paper. The poor condition lends a veneer of credibility in the eyes of gullible and inexperienced Banksy enthusiasts — who desperately want to believe they've landed upon the real thing.
It's a comparable situation to the sketch in your collection, I'm afraid. Also visibly fake:
... for the "non-believers"

That double stamp on the happy chopper looks strange, I mean why has it got that second smaller circle? Can’t understand why that would happen. Has anyone seen a stamp with that before?
