Banksy Welcome Mat, by Daylight Robber on Feb 21, 2020 10:33:51 GMT 1, As far as I can see the only mat that went for auction on the bay scored 2250 GBP... That's one of the more 'rustic' ones I've seen too.
Are you suggesting that some of these are going to be more 'desirable' than others?

Some like the neat look as it's closely linked to the original. Others like the more rugged, personal appearance like this one.
My personal preference would be the tighter finish, so yes if I had the choice I might pay more for the one I find more visually appealing to me.
Isn't all art like that though?

Youโre as believable as me ๐

You must be pretty special then as they haven't answered that question to anyone.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Deleted on Feb 21, 2020 11:34:26 GMT 1, As long as there is people that need support and also people that are willing to support, I don't see a reason why they would stop making these.
Let's check the facts: - Refugees in need of help: data2.unhcr.org/en/situations/mediterranean - Demand for Banksy Welcome Mats: Just take a look around on this thread

Maybe they didn't ask the right questions, I don't know, however this is what they said to me. Happy days as far as I am concerned Nice info Bluebell. If you were to provide a screenshot of that conversation that would be useful for putting the matter to bed.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Gentle Mental on Feb 21, 2020 12:01:11 GMT 1, They will make much money if they up the price and limit the edition. An Ed of 1000 at 3k each. 1.5m in a day or two. No problem.
How many ยฃ500 doormats can you sell if LW declares them to be truly unlimited?
When the majority of those who would already did.
Remember - hundred of thousands of hard core Banksy fans took an hour, to sell out 500 โunlimitedโ.
The longer the add to cart stay up the lesser the demand.

I believe keeping them unlimited would be a better idea in the long run. The concept is strong, it would make a perfect entry level bansky in a collection.
People paying $750 for peckham rock postcard and $1k for a tenner (which is edition of what exactly? 100k?)

Not quite the same detail, but this is a response I had. 100% bullshit free
'Please sign up to our waiting list and all of your questions will be answered. There is no need to buy from secondary sources. Also if you do that - the women and refugee community donโt get the money!!'

Banksy Welcome Mat, by iamzero on Feb 21, 2020 12:52:29 GMT 1, I think the uncomfortable truth is they may not continue to sell out these batches of 500 if they donโt announce the limit they plan to make. Can anyone here honestly say most people can afford to part with ยฃ500 for one of these mats no matter how noble the cause? I have my own reasons for buying one which is I won the chance of buying the Sale Ends and this felt like a great reason to give something back without sounding too wanky about it all. A thousand of these mats sounds reasonable and maybe theyโll be another batch taking it to 1500 but the desire to own own after that to me sounds like a stretch. Just my opinion of course.

Now it seems I wasnt lucky enough to get a print, I would buy a mat if the opportunity arises again. And make a bespoke coffee table to put it in.

Then the edition will limit itself. They are numbered so it won't be a secret how many have been made. But I hope it won't and they sell tons of them.
And congratulations on your Sale Ends!

Welcome to the world of banksy
No one knows, i don't think he even knows
That's the fun of it
when people say, 'I know... this is what's happening... it's been confirmed... I was told.... I heard' It's all just crap, without evidence it's just nothing
I see it a bit like Brexit..... why have facts when you can spout crap, and people take your word for it

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Terry Fuckwitt on Feb 21, 2020 15:40:15 GMT 1, I hate hassling anyone, let alone a charity that is probably being bombarded with requests. But, if it stops people paying secondary prices and buying direct instead, then I say it's worth two minutes of their time. Again, 100% bullshit free.
'Will these mats continue to be made after the next 500 are released while there is demand? Rumours are that there will only be 500 more, but if this is not true, I want to let other Banksy fans and forum members know, so they can wait to buy direct.'
'We have never said these are limited to only another 500.
Thanks'
