I bet the seller was happy with that. Plus just another original off the market, and now in more stable hands.
Every time an original or long term owner sells a Banksy, the piece will usually be entering a new collection and the price is stabilized as the owner will be holding the piece. It's one less piece on the market and supply is less. So it's positive for the market, don't expect any bargains.

Seller made 900k on an edition canvas, not even a unique canvas, most reasonable people would be happy with that return in 12 years. But you can't please everyone if their not.
