Banksy Welcome Mat, by Deleted on Feb 27, 2020 9:57:55 GMT 1, I received the email but have decided I don’t want it myself. I’m happy to purchase and sell for cost to a fellow forum member. I will give preference to anyone who has demonstrated charitable behaviour on the forum previously.
Great gesture

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Graham H on Feb 27, 2020 10:01:00 GMT 1, Hardly high stakes.. there is no way these will ever sell for less than they cost..
i bet flippers are sweating right now - with multiple "winning" emails from their multiple email addresses....
what if they're truly unlimited?? they would have to sell way below cost to get rid of them... because most folks would rather buy from source to support the charity.
then again - if they give up this opportunity... the next batch might be the last!
At £500 a pop - these are high stakes, doormat shaped, casino chips!!

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Happy Shopper on Feb 27, 2020 10:10:03 GMT 1, funny that when "welcome mat" was released were available for more than 2 h. Now everyone want one, and say how lucky they are to have this "rare" possibility... off course just after seeing ebay prices...
The only reason they were there for 2 hours was because people didn’t realise it was the one item on GDP you could just buy. And then there was the worry it would be your 1 item.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Jaydog on Feb 27, 2020 10:13:20 GMT 1, If you don’t mind my asking, did the people who received the email sign up to the wait list recently or earlier? Perhaps number of weeks ago would give us an indication if they preferenced older signups. Thanks! I registered a couple of weeks ago ,I also purchased a cushion when I signed up so maybe that helped ?

Funny thing is that Kaws drops 1000s of “Open Editions” every other week, and they still rise in value!

I signed up to the waiting list after the first run sold out in October and received an email this morning.

i bought the door mat, on the first release, because i really like the all meaning around it; always thought it was the strongest piece on the GDP show.
but now 90% of the people that are buying it are flipper, they want the door mat just because of the GDP label. if they really care about the meaning they would have bought it on the first run.
i just hate hypocrisy
but happy that love welcome are raising founds for refugees.

There was no release time on the first batch, they just popped up. So a lot of people wouldn't have seen them until they had sold out.

Yeah, but not everyone would have checked their emails. Also, there has been a load sold/selling already on ebay, so I say more flippers bought the first time around than this round.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by purpleandred on Feb 27, 2020 11:08:39 GMT 1, Let them flip. at least we know £500 went to a good cause. If punters are dumb enough to pay inflated prices then so be it. I'm holding out hope that I'll get a crack at the next round or the next or the next or the next. What would be too much to ask is if LW checked against the same postal and billing addresses for future random draws. Must say this is absolutely brilliant from Banksy, keeps people employed and they can churn out these mats until the inquiries run dry. lovely stuff.
PS: if anyone wants to sell me theirs at cost I'm up for it! lol

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Gentle Mental on Feb 27, 2020 11:37:38 GMT 1, If it’s truly unlimited - and it’s looking like it will be - would flipper still buy to flip?
I’m staring to see these as the deluxe permanent collection section of the store. They will always be there selling at 10 times more than other mats.
They will always be there for anyone who wants a Banksy.
As per Banksy’s Art for the People credo.

An open edition? Hopefully, the first of many OK, first of a few

I emailed LW about 5:30 on day of launch to ask to be added to the waiting list for the next batch, this was before they had made a form for the list. Seems they haven't used request time as a factor in the new allocation which is disappointing. Oh well hope I'm lucky at some point.

£500 For a banksy with money going to an amazing cause what’s not to like

I would like to have seen them run a purchase window of a few days or a week and then spend a year making them... You would know you were getting one and the secondary market would have been mostly put to bed.

I will give preference to anyone who has demonstrated charitable behaviour on the forum previously. For the sake of full transparency I shall be selling my mat to Hubble Bubble . Apologies to those who I could not help out. Many thanks to Balboa for this. It is really appreciated.
My commiserations to my fellow forumites who missed out. I can only promise you (and those of you who know me will back me up on this) that the mat will be displayed and loved and not sold on. I have a reputation for many things but flipping, hopefully, isn't one of them. I hope this might be some small consolation.
I missed the first drop and went onto the waiting list on October 22nd so was hopeful of a mat this time around.
Following the Boat Raffle I have continued to donate to Choose Love, the refugee charity that benefited from the raffle. In particular, I have supported their Women's Support (Safe Spaces) initiative - my eldest daughter works for a charity that supports and fights for the rights of young girls around the world - and, to 'share the love' on this particular product, intend to make a further (in addition, obviously, to the price of the mat from Love Welcomes) donation as a 'thank you' for this lovely gesture from Balboa
Cheers all.
