Banksy Donuts Print, by snausages on Aug 3, 2009 2:34:18 GMT 1, Isn't it sad that a print release has created 59 pages of discussion while the 'banksy summer show' thread + the 'banksy summer show -photos' thread have only got 48 when added together. 50(ish) new works by the man, and more people seem to care about one print. sad sad sad
Several people have moaned over how little talk about the print has occurred opposed to all the talk about flippers, ebay, lotteries and other stupid stuff. I'm not surprised. 99% of the communication on this planet is people saying meaningless things, like would you please pass the jelly, that woman has a nice arse, isn't the turtle hen good, you've just been punk'd, etc. It's amazing mankind has been able to do things like go to the moon and split atoms with as much mindless chatter that happens...

I believe it is not over.
We still have people out there who received an email for payment until today (at 12).
Also, POW can cancel an order at any time if they think you are buying the print to flip (and you can see heaps on ebay already).
The chances of getting something right now are very low, but who knows.
I would say, just relax and enjoy Banksy's work. Go to Bristol and enjoy the show. That is something that you can't miss... amazing show... very very very cool art. You can even see the original donnuts there and take a photo with it and hang on your wall.
Cheers
Ric
PS: I didn't receive "the email" aswell

Banksy Donuts Print, by nex on Aug 3, 2009 9:53:41 GMT 1, as with most Banksy images i'd say it's as simple or as complex as you want to make it
- a simple gag about american cops loving their donuts?
- a dig at western consumer society valuing their sweet high fat food hugely?
- differing colour editions to represent mccain and obama - but still they're just donuts i.e. all politicians are the same
there's a few to get you started

Read this, do it, and get a brand spanking new iPhone, so you can surf for porn on the tube and complain to POW on the move with increased functionality. oi oi

Banksy Donuts Print, by grantb on Aug 3, 2009 10:56:04 GMT 1, We have dealt with orders of prints listed for sale on eBay by drawing further winners from the original list of registration, this is the fairest way to deal with it. They have all sold and so won't be put on the site...

Someone tell me why is this so difficult to clock?

Banksy Donuts Print, by schlomo on Aug 3, 2009 11:56:46 GMT 1, not sure on that one grant, whatever dora says. I know at least one person who isn't taking his second chance offer, so they'll be at least one still available after today. Annoyingly he wont pay and let me pay him back for it as he doesnt have the cash anymore apparently..... (although i think he's just being a bugger as wouldnt sell him something he really wanted a while back....)
so, sorry to say there is still a chance, apologies to all who thought it was over, but i dont think it is........

Well done POW for intercepting these Ebay sellers.
As these auctions are still running I figure those selling won't know yet.
