You're a liar.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Carl Cashman Art on Feb 16, 2020 11:51:48 GMT 1, What was going through your mind during that one hour when the mat was online up for sale? Being all banksy fanatics, I’m sure everyone here saw it. We were all at the frontline. And the had the option to click checkout or no. Everyone would’ve read all the t and c of GDP. Why did or didn’t you spend 500 quid on what was presented as, essentially handmade, unlimited, gift shop merch? Busy changing nappies and completely missed them unfortunately!

Banksy Welcome Mat, by pfffffffffft on Feb 16, 2020 13:04:09 GMT 1, I don’t think that would work well. I think interest would immediately die. It would be smarter if there was some big reveal before. Then their mailing list gets everyone’s info, they crank the price up to market and make 5-10 million in one hit which funds them for a long time and Love Welcomes gets worldwide publicity Box sets have been pumped out 20 a day for 3 years and the interest has not dropped. I think the boxed sets sell in the $100-$150 each range though yes?

Yeah, but there was a time where they would not sit for sale at €450

Banksy Welcome Mat, by pfffffffffft on Feb 16, 2020 14:02:01 GMT 1, i hovered over the payment button for many long minutes. tabbing between that page the gdp page and this forum - like a crack addict scrapping for scraps of crack. And seeing the add to cart still there - unchanged for tens of minutes - an eternity in Banksy drop world - felt like they really mean unlimited when they said unlimited... And folks saying I may be disqualified. Thinking... had I wanted an unlimited Banksy - Maybe i should be going for the spray can, t-shirts or cushions. They were unlimited and far cheaper and more Banksy like. At that time - all the unlimited felt like sure shots. Why should I plunge 500 quid on this? A lot of unknowns and variables. A few facts. One being - whatever happens a good charity gets the money. the dissonance was quite overwhelming - and I felt immediately - right after payment - a mix of buyer’s remorse (a 500 quid doormat??) and consumer dopamine spiked high of online shopping (equals to buying a pricey open ed Kaws toy) worry (disqualification!) ... and how the heck am I going to frame this.. or convince the mrs... The add to cart button remained unchanged for a long while after I paid. f**kit. I got a meaningful piece from my favourite artist and the money did some good. Good enough for me. I’ll make that 500 quid back selling crack or something.. Slept well that night. Ha! I had that dopamine spike too!

So excited to see the final product!

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Easy-Z on Feb 16, 2020 22:30:27 GMT 1, Box sets have been pumped out 20 a day for 3 years and the interest has not dropped. I think the boxed sets sell in the $100-$150 each range though yes? - Both times I was at the hotel seems a few box sets sell a day at most (on weekends, probably less during week). So 20 a day seems a bit zealous, but point taken there a lot of them. They retail at shop for about $180.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by The Italian One on Feb 17, 2020 9:40:15 GMT 1, I have spoken to someone more in the know than most of us. They aren’t planning a COA currently but it isn’t out of the question Another 500 is possible but no guarantee. 1000 max. There is almost certainly a surprise / reward as the people who bought these immediately sought to give £500 a great cause banksy cares greatly about. These people didn’t instantly want the prints or big ticket pieces. Banksy likes this. This could end up being a numbered 500 edition with COA.. maybe even more! Congrats to those who bought for the right reasons.. you might just get lucky. LW sent an email 5 m before the release on GDP to those who donate

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Terry Fuckwitt on Feb 17, 2020 13:13:19 GMT 1, Some people here were saying that there might not be any more mats for sale and that 'love welcomes' might just be collecting data to help promoting the cause, 100% not true. There are more mats coming and this is confirmed. Do NOT buy secondary if you still want one! Give your hard earned money direct to the charity and feel good about yourself for doing so.
