Pest Control COA • Banksy Print Authentication, by Richard on Nov 24, 2008 22:22:30 GMT 1, Dora can tell if its her hand writing I sent about 6 photos of a Banksy and she let me know within hours that it was genuine They see so many and you know what it's like you can always tell your own hand writing I would send a load of photos to her direct. she sorted out prov for me realy quickly
With all due respect - it wouldn't be hard for someone to fake Dora's hand writing. Let alone an expert forger.

Pest Control COA • Banksy Print Authentication, by Heavyconsumer on Nov 25, 2008 1:11:59 GMT 1, Either you want the prov' for a nifty, or you don't. I can't see much point in getting into a debate over its' validity on here. We've all seen that this has become the respected and expected standard for those older prints which change hands. I'd suggest that if there's no original proof of purchase available for the print you may have a tough time as the seller getting a fair price, without having a POW/PC certificate. It would seem that rip off or not, it's most probably in your best interests. If you have genuine suspicion that the print is not originally from the numbered run, then it may make sense to try and avoid prov', but otherwise all the arguments are pro imo.

Pest Control COA • Banksy Print Authentication, by rosstierney on Nov 25, 2008 2:03:06 GMT 1, i think this is a case of penny pinching
if it's an olden day banksy that you bought ages ago i'm presuming it contains profit?
for the sake of £50, get a certificate & you'll be able to sell it for more than you would have without it

Pest Control COA • Banksy Print Authentication, by slacker on Dec 1, 2008 18:01:32 GMT 1, has anybody received a coa from pest control lately? if so then how long did the process take from the time you submitted it?
i put in a couple a while back, three days apart, and there were about 30 submitted (based on the numbers given) during that time so i'd imagine that it isn't going to be quick.
i just wondered how long it is taking at the moment.

If you dont intend to sell the prints now then chill they'll get round to them I guess, if you need it to sell then drop her a line and ask nicely??

i have no plans whatsoever to sell, i just wanted some piece of mind over prints that i have bought on the secondary market. happy to sit back and chill but i'll need to keep some money in the piggy bank for authentication just in case they get in touch.

You can probably I think still get an email from Dora saying a print is kosher.
If you want a certificate saying so £50+vat

Pest Control COA • Banksy Print Authentication, by Andy'77 on Apr 29, 2009 12:57:33 GMT 1, Just wondering how long have people had to wait for a COA after submission to Pest Control? I submitted a request at the beginning of January. I know they have a mountain to deal with but I'm wondering if this is normal.

quick in getting back with "yes it's cool" or "give us more
info ?" - turnAround ~ couple of days.
