its looks pretty good ie doesnt look like it was done yesterday. but I think Columbo might find a few holes in the ' I found it in the garage' story!

If you can't get it authenticated then buy for a sensible price (money you can afford to 'lose') to have at home. Looks fun though.

Even if they were happy to do it, you'd need to own the piece. They would need to actually see piece to say for sure, especially in the event that they thought something was legit. If it's not yours you can't send it in anyway, so waste of time. Anyway it's bl00dy hideous!!!

just see on Ebay, by bullet on Apr 16, 2008 23:49:01 GMT 1, Three things:
1. I don't believe this 'i think it may be by a guy called banksy' s**t that i keep seeing on auctions. Most people have heard of banksy.
2. That is definately from a member on here as they would not mention the line 'i have been asked by a few members to end the auction early'. This not only makes me think there has been f**k all people asking about it so they are making out they have had interest, it also leads me to believe they are referring to members of this forum as so many people do now days as this lot are the targets for most of this stuff.
3. I think its jezabells. 2 posts, the second posting a link to a piece which is rubbish trying to get interest.
case closed.
Did a bull just take a s**t.

Actually this one doesn't look too bad to me but the story and tone of the listing makes me suspicious. It may be real but even if it is Pest Control will not offer provenance so you're pretty much stuck. I'd give it a miss.

just see on Ebay, by icky on Apr 21, 2008 20:16:09 GMT 1, I really liked this one when I saw it and thought that; yes this might be real.
So I looked around on the internet and on my hard drive to see if I could find it or one like it, but had no luck. So there wasn't any real thought of me bidding on it.
The auction ended at ยฃ698.59. A lot for a fake, but really cheap for an original Banksy.
Today I had my Wall and Piece out looking for something else and *BAM*. On page 108. There it is!
Ok, the bolts aren't there, but I guess they could have been filled in. After all the auction pics aren't very detailed and it's a small picture. But even the details in the white background and the scratches match!
I thought: "Shit! I just missed an original Banksy on Ebay that is in Wall & Peace!"
Then I checked a bit more. I put them over each other in Photoshop and realized that some things weren't quite right:
They don't line up 100% when superimposed with each other.
Some detail is missing.
So someone has researched and spent some time to fake this and I think they've done a good job. I guess that you would realize it was a fake when seen in real life, but the auction pics almost had me fooled.
Be careful out there!
