Smart if you ask me. It is a total crap shoot getting prints anymore - I'd save up your money and mentally prepare yourself for buying the one print you really want on Ebay.

POW say they're committed to providing affordable art, so surely (for what must be Banksy's last release through them) they will continue to do so.
Totally agree. 2K is beyond the fund of most people, so it would just make signed copies the preserve of the wealthy.

not exactly what they say but I take your point.........
"Why are they so expensive?
F**k off. Every POW edition print so far has sold out (eventually). They are always on eBay for more money. We genuinely set out to make art available to more than just tossers and gangsters."

Not everyone in the world knows about POW and so art lovers buy work from ebay, I don't see the problem with that. I buy a lot and sell a little to reduce the costs of my addiction.

wrong again....for most people the only time money comes into the equation is when they'd rather pay ยฃ200 on PoW than fork out ยฃ500 to some scalper cvnt on ebay who got there before them & bought the print purely for profit with no interest in the image or it's meaning.
and when others ask who"the next big thing is" they're probably again wanting to get in early so they don't have to fork out on ebay.

seriously. what is your problem? Do you think that you are the only person on this forum who likes art and wants to buy prints to keep? i think you need to chill out. You have no idea why people buy prints, what they do with them, etc. sure some people buy to sell, at the end of the day its not that big a deal, but some people actually enjoy the art too, so dont be so quick to generalise.

If you buggered off there may be one less item on ebay from someone on this forum.

"I have no dates for the release of the next Banksy, sorry."
There you go! I wouldn't get on POW's back, they are just running a business are small scale and are coping with unprecedented demand. It's frustrating and a pisser but that's life. You can't expect a small organisation in a select field to become a massively slick operation overnight.
Having said that some clear explanation of what will be available and when wouldn't seem too difficukt especially if it is not "new" product but merely outstanding Ghetto stock or the LA prints that people know are around.

Knowing how cryptic POW can be does this mean they have no dates (a sweet, dark brown, oval fruit containing a hard stone, often eaten dried.) available for the next Banksy release.

I can now rest my weary eyes and fingers for the foreseeable future.
