Pest Control COA โข Banksy Print Authentication, by Poster Bob on Jun 22, 2014 16:21:58 GMT 1, I just paid for a COA. It took eleven days to authenticate. That's not bad at all in my opinion.

Pest Control COA โข Banksy Print Authentication, by Warm Gun on Jun 22, 2014 16:34:29 GMT 1, 11 days?...that's bloody brilliant for those rude buggers. I didn't hear back after three months of filling out the forms and sending millions of photos with lots of relevant info. I sold the piece in the end and the new buyer got a coa within three weeks (which is still shite)

Pest Control COA โข Banksy Print Authentication, by Ruggs on Jun 22, 2014 16:41:36 GMT 1, What's the obsession with re registering in own name ? I've got a few banksy's with COA's but registered in og purchasers names. Never thought of the need to change them ! Is this such a bad thing ? Don't think there's an obsession over changing a name. If POW have your prints registered in the previous owners name on their database then in their eyes your prints still belong to him/her and not you. Just a wise thing to do to ensure they recognise that you're the rightful owner.

Pest Control COA โข Banksy Print Authentication, by dbnetherleigh on Jun 22, 2014 17:33:02 GMT 1, Coincidentally - just got my change of ownership confirmation back this afternoon - submitted early May, returned late June, so guessing that's the current timescale - although as Silky points out PC May need to check out ownership details for some, so this is more a guide than the rule. Good to get it sorted though.....

Pest Control COA โข Banksy Print Authentication, by Philippe on Jun 26, 2014 12:29:48 GMT 1, My mate and I wrote them the same week, I purchased mine directly from POW and he on the secondary market, from someone who purchased it from a gallery that no longer exists. We both got responses the day after we wrote. He recieved his COA over in LA within a week and I recieved mine in NYC within 2-3 weeks. Not much rhyme or reason I gather. Patience is a virtue.

I have also payed for the COA after they confirmed that the pictures and documentation I sent was good enough to issue an COA. And months has passed.
It`s just bizarre that they can`t give an response.

They are normally pretty responsive to emails, dumb question, but you have checked the email address you are sending to is the right one and there isn't a reply sitting in your junk mail? If you drop me the details I can try to help

An email was first sent in 1971 for god sake and was made more commercial in the early 1990s - 20 years ago. I find it hard to fathom why people still have problems.
Do these people still own black and white tv licenses?

If they are providing a paid service what difference does it make if the person is a flipper or a keeper?

Naughty? Even if I had flipped something, they would be pretty unprofessional and immature doing such a thing. Go get educated.

Pest Control COA โข Banksy Print Authentication, by Ponyboy Curtis on Jul 2, 2014 15:58:04 GMT 1, So how do you?!
I've bought a couple of Banksy's over the years and as long is it was in the correct envelope with the same numbers and the half tenner attached and looked legit I didn't bat an eyelid!
A seller has just asked me if I knew how to check before I committed to the deal which has alarmed me slightly.
Any advice gratefully appreciated or direct me to the thread where this has been covered also works.

I'm not sure of a way without having the full details of the coa and most sellers wont share that until the moneys paid in case its used fraudulently. If everyone reregistered their Banksys in their name when they buy them then that could be checked but I'm not sure many do reregister or even know to. I guess to reduce the risks the buyer could pay a 10% deposit to prove sincerity and the seller may then be willing to share the coa info for checking before the balance is paid.

I'm sure PC will love me for that solution but it would help in the prevention of fakes on the market.

1) Submitted info, providence and pictures on 20th June in the morning 2) Received a response from Pest Control less than two hours later confirming authenticity and asking me to pay for the COAs. I sent payment immediately by paypal 3) Received the COAs by recorded delivery to Turkey on 1st July
Pest Control even issued a partial refund as I had overpaid slightly on the delivery. Overall an extremely efficient and pleasant experience.

Pest Control COA โข Banksy Print Authentication, by Deleted on Jul 9, 2014 7:23:28 GMT 1, The first time applying for a coa took one week and after payment it took less than a week for the coa to arrive. Second time it was just a name change in the registry. That took about 3 months. (Right after Boti) Last time it took them 3weeks (i had applied for a coa). There was something 'wrong' so i stayed in contact with Pest for another 10days and they gave me updates every day. All worked out fine and they were a great help sorting stuff out. Then they issued the Coa and told me it will be with me in 2 weeks.
Pest did a great job on all 3 applications!
