is 'pestcontroloffice' a real e-mail address used by pest control? I thought it was pestcontrol.com, not pestcontroloffice.com. If I'm right, then that means it's a fake address and has nothing to do with pest control, or Banksy either.

Banksy Show • Cut & Run • Glasgow , by leroy77 on Aug 20, 2023 18:56:11 GMT 1, If you reread the flyer, it’s addressed first for people from Glasgow. As he helped Anarchists and the people from Bristol, as he used to make surprises for Weston Super Mare people etc Maybe there are two sets of flyers with different texts? :-) Why include an edition of 300 number? Could there be more than 1 style print as with GDP? Could possibly the members who have the mags find they all have the same ***/300 meaning they all have Saturdays release and there could possibly be further editions of 300 leading up to last day?

Banksy Show • Cut & Run • Glasgow , by Matt 2 ttaM on Aug 20, 2023 21:27:49 GMT 1, I think there’s a lot of overthinking going on, its basically an ad placed in the newspaper just like any other ad or coupon … Banksy can change the life of an individual homeless person by giving them the “gift,” but as a whole, Banksy is trying to generate revenue and attention for an organizer that is trying to help as many as possible, not just one person, who may or may not spend said “gift,” on things to help them live better. A windfall is a one time benefit, but by doing this, it might help give the organizer, “Big Issue,” a much bigger leg up in the long run.

They'll definitely have earnt it after having to deal with thousands of Banksy fans on their case asking if they can have a "flick through" before paying...(don't do that, you'll only crease them all up and then they won't be able to sell them). Best of luck to all the Big Issue sellers out there.

That’s a pretty unreal number tbf. Wonder what factors have caused that. I would suggest the podcast might have spurred some extra traffic. Can you see stats to see when that traffic increased and has it coincided with the podcast release? The exhibition opening? Or just a steady incline?

Banksy Show • Cut & Run • Glasgow , by drip on Aug 21, 2023 8:33:46 GMT 1, I've always believed that humour works best when it's explained in writing. In the original version of that rat illustration, the tray of papers has the word "in" on it, it's an inbox, and the rat is going to burn the paperwork. I imagine Banksy and the PC staff are huge fans of admin, and that probably also explains why it takes them so long to respond to queries and/or legal threats.

Banksy Show • Cut & Run • Glasgow , by SFBM on Aug 21, 2023 8:51:12 GMT 1, I was in town today, didn’t see a single big issue seller and was looking out for them. Me too - wasn’t actively searching but in a lot of areas you’d expect to see them and there were none.
TBH it was a relief that I wasn’t faced with the dilemma of what to do if I did (panic buy all available stock etc) and could just enjoy the show (which is fantastic). Got my Polaroids, tote and tee so happily heading home now.

Banksy Show • Cut & Run • Glasgow , by churchwood on Aug 21, 2023 8:54:07 GMT 1, I thought I has seen the rat and in-tray before.
This is an interesting one and I am not sure which way to go on this.
Logistically, if it isn't genuine, someone has been pretty clever with regards to getting them distributed in this manner. Has anyone who has been to Cut and Run over the last few days asked any of the staff at the GoMA if they had heard about it?
I am usually wrong though so wait for it to become and official PC publication :-)

The lack of a denial, confirmation, admission, or anything, is strange.
The missing Big Issue sellers is strange.
This whole thing is strange.
Hold me.

A "challenging wank", as we'd call it in the trade.
If it's real, well - Banksy can do whatever he likes. You know what men in their 50s are like, they love a project.

Could it be possible that ‘winners’ have been asked not to fuel the fire any more and out of fear of losing their prizes they are complying?

Banksy Show • Cut & Run • Glasgow , by drip on Aug 21, 2023 9:36:32 GMT 1, I have to say (I don't, but I will), if I'd been one of the "winners", I probably wouldn't have mentioned it for quite some time. I can understand folk not wanting to risk losing out on something potentially cool, and/or ridicule if a badge turns up.
I imagine a scenario where there are far more coupons in hands, but folk just don't want to risk sharing that information at this stage.
Also - might only be a few of these coupons out there. Might only be a few coupons out there at this point. These could be drip-fed over some time. That would keep folk encouraged to continue to buy the Big Issue, and to volunteer in soup kitchens, food banks, and to give money and blankets to the homeless, because you never know when compassion, genuine human compassion, will be rewarded.
