BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by silvermyn on Nov 11, 2019 0:41:06 GMT 1, I haven't seen much coverage in the mainstream media of any follow-up to GDP store. Isn't that a bit strange? I woulda thought there'd be something as Banksy articles are good clickbait. Anyone found anything? Good point. No articles accompanied by upset forum members with their best compo faces on. I kinda figured the vest winner would deffo get themselves in a couple of papers. Maybe the clutch bag too. If that was aimed at me drip then you can go swivel on it pal.
Otherwise, sweet dreams amigo

Have any long term members on here won editioned originals, or did they all go to friends? It has been accepted that the s**t list published on this thread is more than likely a wind-up, so print winners names appearing on it doesn’t really disprove the theory Again. There are two long time members that have won. I have now sent you a DM to their very public posts proclaiming their wins. Hopefully this puts this conspiracy theory you have to bed.

Right now the oddities are the GWB shirts being XS only, the mat having a yet unseen GDP tag and contradictory edition notations, and the Flower Thrower under legal.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by drip on Nov 11, 2019 1:21:33 GMT 1, I think it's interesting (zzzzzzz) how if GDP isn't making squillions of the unlimited items like many will have ordered, and they're putting out 1 mug, a t-shirt, maybe 1 can etc, Banksy's basically turning down a shedload of money. This is of course based on speculation, the apparent lack of unlimited item winners, and my own insomnia.

I kinda figured the vest winner would deffo get themselves in a couple of papers. Maybe the clutch bag too. Would be quite dull with winners of their winning links to payments , I'm sure will make the main media when they are shipped and in hand ! being in hand and photos make a better cover story plus they can still be cancelled before being shipped, if greedy folks try to sell, this round is for the collectors , average fan , not the wealthy elite that has started investing in banksy Haha! Yeah, good point. Just thought there might be a bit of interest in the mystery surrounding it, but maybe that's because I've been reading 300+ pages about it recently...

I don't think there's as much hysteria as it is those of us who are a little OCD prone trying to piece together some bread crumbs placed assuming Banksy's proclivity of hiding things in plain sight. I went for the total cheeseball Balloon Tee as I thought it'd be a cute gift for my gf's bday in December, it wasn't too expensive, and the production said it was unlimited, so I thought I'd definitely get one. Also, I really liked the Goldfish, but it wasn't available. Then, after placing my order, thinking about it a bit, I thought there must be more to this stunt than meets the eye...
If we didn't deify Banksy would we really give a second look to most of the items? Some of them are intentionally ironic: the mug, the clock, the t-shirts, the Thrower, the cushions, and the cans. The first three are the type of traditional tatty merchandise that he is fighting against in his opposition to Full Colour Black. The choice of his most famous print for the T-shirt and the new edition of the Thrower is a wink to 'cashing in'. The tagged branded T-shirts are a joke. The cushions are kitsch, and the can is another ironic joke about branding. Then, if we look at the limited items, they're either ugly, awkward or inappropriate. Some of them are all three.
Anyway, I think it all must be a big joke, but it has been a fun and wild ride. I only found this forum when I was interested in finding out how this stunt would play out so I did some Googling. My guess is that Lovewelcomes is the main beneficiary, the unlimited items are very, very limited and have some hidden bonus (a print made with the can, for example), and the limited items are played straight.
I think I must have contradicted myself more than a few times there, but actually I probably didn't.

I agree that we’re probably over thinking it all. But someone previously posted an article in like the Daily Star about a woman decorating her flat with Banksy decals. If that made the “news” then i fully expect people actually winning to be reported on too.

Quick look in my special payment chest: A unicorn horn, werewolf paw, ticket of a train that arrived on time, a hair from an honest politician ... no virgin stuff.

To me when someone says fake i see it as they are trying to pass it off as a authentic banksy, however in this listing it states it isn’t a banksy. I don’t think increasing the edition size would stop this either, take West Country Prince is an example.

I do believe there will be at least a moment of excitement when everyone who registered will get an email regarding the 2nd round. Followed by immediate disappointment thinking they’d won something in the first one
