LAZ apology shocker?, by spaschariot on Sept 21, 2007 15:31:18 GMT 1, Having gone home, slept, calmed down, got sh*tfaced, calmed down again I have just read some of the threads on here about the bullshit on wednesday and reignited some dull embers.
Everyone must have read the great thread about the day from Manty, fight club tryout included. I was the t**t with the pushbike in the queue by the way. I got to within 7 of the door when the doorman said its books only now folks....still standing there like some rare breed mutton I figured I'll go and get a book at least, in the bullseye spirit just to see what I could have won. Then he says we're done with credit cards (having had enough of that for today apparently poor lambs) so its cash only, by the time I'd opened me wallet to find only £15 quid there the rest of the queue had bundled past me into the shop so no book either..
When you realise that all any of us had to do was stomp on some poor cu*t's head or be Rhys Ifans to get a full set without queueing, I wish I'd got pissed and acted like an arsehole instead, that would have been easier than getting up when I did and waiting 10 hours to be treated like a cu*t.
So many of us got there early enough and with enough people in front of us to at least walk away with one of the prints we liked. 126th in the queue at 5.30 am turned into 133rd then 146th then fuck knows how many more people piled up the front.
I'm disgusted that people took sickies and put their jobs at risk, or took time off, drove up from the arse end of nowhere to queue up, pay parking, just to get misinformed, and we're talking santas ghetto on crack for misinformation. It couldn't have been a calculated act as they'd all be working for MI6 not shifting prints if it were.
I've bought stuff in Laz before and the people aren't unpleasant just infu*kingcompetent. It's nothing personal guys but you should work in fu*king primark if you're going to shaft people like that. I would wish a pox uponyee but which one small cow or chicken? perhaps there's a poll there....you decide
I don't have a problem with queueing, so much so that I might be a soviet housewife reincarnated, but that wasn't even taking the piss that was being rude cun*s who had the power and opportunity to do it differently but in the end behaved as if they didn't give a fu*k.
I met some lovely people queuing and hope you all managed to reconcile the experience somehow, especially the girl who had to leave for Bristol at 4 to go back to the kids home, hopefully you feel better that you wouldn't have got one anyway because you were neither famous or a cu*t.
and will there be a statement from the queen?
will there fuckerslike.
And will we all do it again next time.....baaa

LAZ apology shocker?, by steve on Sept 21, 2007 15:50:34 GMT 1, a mate got this back from Holly at Laz when she mailed her to complain about what went on, kids buying , misinformation, crowd issues, people walking straight in without queuing etc...(turns out she was in LA and had this to say)
"Mr Lazarides is also here with me and had no involvement in the arrangements of selling the prints in the UK. It seems insane to me that people would bother to queue all night for a print!!! That's absolute madness to me, I guess in life there are stars and fans, why would you spend and entire night queuing in the cold, I wouldn't queue for anything unless it involved my child's life. Sorry that everyone is upset I have no knowledge of what went on or how they arranged it sounds like insanity all over a piece of artwork - the world has gone absolutely mad! "
She failed to acknowledge any of the issues brought up apparently. She's asked holly who was responsible for selling the prints in the UK......and no reply since then.

Do you know the ONE thing Laz will be gutted about, It will be the fat t**t and his family walking with 20 prints, and not because the t**t stopped loads in the Q getting their prints, it will be because he HATES with a passion someone else making a quick buck when it aint him!!!!!
AMEN.

LAZ apology shocker?, by corblimeylimey on Sept 21, 2007 15:51:50 GMT 1, I've only been to Laz once and it was to look round an exhibition on a day other than preview night, so all was cool, I only asked for pemission to take photo's which was granted. But two tourists came in asking about Banksy and I thought they were treated shoddily and fobbed off.
Haveing heard a lot of Laz stories, if I was wealthy enough to buy from Laz, I'd not want to give him the business, if at all possible I'd go somewhere else.

LAZ apology shocker?, by Cocteau 101 on Sept 21, 2007 15:52:39 GMT 1, The gallery don't give a fuck I phoned today and basically got told we are there to sell art to people in the shop not sort out crowd control. It's a real shame because the person I spoke too I've always been told was sound and all I wanted to do was possibly suggest that next time things could be organised a little less chaotically.

That's a wee bit dramatic isn't it?
What does she do in the Supermarket?...oh I see.....she's a star! not a fan, she' doesn't queue.
edited to add - I agree with Carlito in the post below - WTF? completely out of touch.

Then there could be NO pushing in as fat boys family could'nt have joined him later after their lie in .
Laz is a tosser plain and simple - i'm actually pleased the secondary market pisses him off too . But i think the whole affair is a disgrace and that loads of us missed out . I'm gutted so i can't imagine how others feel that have followed AM for longer.
OK in perspective , we are lucky we don't live in Zimbabwe and have to Q all day for a chance of a loaf of bread but this is all in perspective. This is the UK and we Q for different things.
Supermarkets and Argos issue tickets for christ with shopping bags' sake so why can't Laz !!!!!!!!!

Got told the same! Also got told they didn't expect the crowds and the amount of interest! If that's true why did they arrange 3 security guards? Utter Bollocks.
At 8am they should have handed out promisory notes, up to 4 per person, as people joined the Q at the right end they could also be issued with notes. This would have stopped ANY Q jumping by the fat twats extended family and when the notes ran out it would have allowed people to go home without waiting hours for nothing, it would also have stopped the rich and famous getting anything as the staff would have been able to deny them without losing 'face'!
So fucking easy, so fucking organised, so fucking obvious!!
Nuff said!!!!!!

Yeah, the reply sounds flippant and aloof, who do these people think they are? it's the old bit of power they like, bit like Traffic Wardens etc, basically she's just a shop assistant (not that there's anything wrong with shop assistants) but they act like prima donnas.

What does she do in the Supermarket?...oh I see.....she's a star! not a fan, she' doesn't queue. edited to add - I agree with Carlito in the post below - WTF? completely out of touch. Yeah, the reply sounds flippant and aloof, who do these people think they are? it's the old bit of power they like, bit like Traffic Wardens etc, basically she's just a shop assistant (not that there's anything wrong with shop assistants) but they act like prima donnas.
stars and fans or customers and shop...hmmmmm

LAZ apology shocker?, by pw on Sept 21, 2007 16:09:29 GMT 1, i used to just think it was laz that was a t**t. now i hate the fucking lot of them. she sounds like a right pretentious bitch. 18 months ago they were glad to see any customers in that gallery when it first opened. now cos they deal with z list celebrities they think the "common" people dont matter. pricks

LAZ apology shocker?, by danvnuk on Sept 21, 2007 16:11:22 GMT 1, LOL - Reminds me of whenever I've been in any of the shops in Bond Street (not that I can really afford it - but like to spread myself around)
The shop assistants look you up and down, appraising you and your worth - it's bloody awful - and the worse thing is - you probably earn 3x what they earn!
In any case - that response is hilarious - A PR disaster - A lesson in how to pour petrol on the flames.

LAZ apology shocker?, by menace2sobriety on Sept 21, 2007 16:11:49 GMT 1, I've only been to Laz once and it was to look round an exhibition on a day other than preview night, so all was cool, I only asked for pemission to take photo's which was granted. But two tourists came in asking about Banksy and I thought they were treated shoddily and fobbed off. Haveing heard a lot of Laz stories, if I was wealthy enough to buy from Laz, I'd not want to give him the business, if at all possible I'd go somewhere else.
Have to agree with you their CBL. I've never been to LAZ but Mr Lazarides sounds like a total wanker who doesnt give a shit about his customers. Just my opinion from what i have heard on here and from talking to people at other shows
As for that e-mail reply.... what a load of shit! - no apology - just "well its your fault for queing"
