The giveaway is that it's shit.
The youtube videos (2) are definitely planted to sell the fivers on ebay.
Are you the seller? New account and two posts, both on this thread, asking what you made wrong? No accusation, just a question.

BANKSY FIVER PARKING FINE STREET ART PRINT (eBay), by micko on Oct 16, 2008 22:09:03 GMT 1, Thanks for the info. For the record, I am not the seller of these items. i signed up just the other day to this forum because after seeing the item on ebay i wanted to learn more about it. bsaically, i googled my way to this forum and had to register yesterday in order to be able to leave a comment to sogr8's initial sounding- of-the-alarm.
i must admit that i was seriously tempted to place a bid. but, this forum has instructed me otherwise. so, thanks for that.
its pretty clear to me now that there's tons of bootleg, bogus stuff out there. but, figuring out what's what quite often comes down to gut checks from forums like these. it sucks because i'd really like to acquire a great print and/or piece of original art. but, that seems harder than i thought - at least thru ebay anyway. i love banksy's stuff. But, who doesn't. I was at the Village Pet Store last night with some friends (in NYC) and loved the fact that his work is becoming so experiential and is clearly evolving.
anyway, thanks for the sharing your opinions on this. i'll not be bidding on that item. i like this forum and the topics. and, i love the fact that i was sort of informally accused of potentially being the seller. i guess its fair. i wish i was that devious and planned, though.
gotta love the passion for protecting his work.
thx,
mike

Sorry for being suspicious and welcome. Stay around and you might learn something. Like "Don't be stupid. Don't be greedy. Don't be stupid and greedy. If it looks too good to be true, it is too good to be true. And read the small print."

BANKSY FIVER PARKING FINE STREET ART PRINT (eBay), by micko on Oct 17, 2008 16:02:24 GMT 1, haha. even when I try and explain myself I'm still accused.
whatev. thanks again for the insight and opinions.
i suppose if throw out any questions about ebay items from now on I will
be deemed the seller and the item in-question will undoubtedly be considered
a fake. that's counterproductive to why i signed up to this forum in the first
place. but, i love the power that some of you have bestowed on me.

BANKSY FIVER PARKING FINE STREET ART PRINT (eBay), by dogant on Oct 19, 2008 21:15:22 GMT 1, f**k - this has just happened on ebay - sold for £1500+!
cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=280276389628
So, the big question....
1. Is it real?
2. Would PC give it the nod?
3. Would it be classed as street work?
What do you think about it then?
EDIT - looks likes this is already being discussed!

More utter shit.
This image wasn't an 'early' piece at all... it was done in October 2007. And never as a stencil... and certainly not looking that fucking retarded.
If people keep buying this shit, people will keep flogging it...

I think individual threads a good - a permanent link would get ignored. More important is the question of when eBay are actually going to crack down on these fake originals and stop letting people get ripped out of thousands.

First I asked when he got it, the age etc...
Then I replied explaining how he should jump off a cliff and that this was done in 07.
Fucken Muppet!

Make of that what you will but I have a hunch they have something worth around the £4.99 mark.
