Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by naughtyshorty on Dec 12, 2010 9:55:28 GMT 1, im not convinced not issuing an instant COA does stop instant flipping. if you want to get your hands on the print, and you know none of them have coa's them the fact the one you're buying doesnt have one, doesnt really matter so much. i guess its all relative, but thats just my perspective on it.
are there really 18 different colourways??!!!!1

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by hlarmy on Dec 12, 2010 10:10:25 GMT 1, After 100 pages of speculation and story telling, some good posts now appearing (Lee3, Pez etc)... which after reading make me feel that all the effort, and gamble, was worth it ... and subsequently more proud to own Choose Your Weapon (I also love the fact that it has 25 on the bottom left hand corner, rather than in the hundreds ;D).
I do hope the lottery ones go to those that deserve it.
My mission for the next week or so, is to take Lee's advice and try and get a better understanding of Haring's work, as I think this will only make me appreciate the print more than if I didn't...

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by pcant on Dec 12, 2010 10:10:55 GMT 1, I see your point. I didn't need a COA (just confirmation from Pest Control) when I bought my Banksy because I was hanging it on the wall. And anyone buying it for ยฃ10K is probably going to hang it (I can't imagine they'd be hoping to flip it for more), so you're probably right. Ah well, just some hopeful schandenfreude.

This is one of my favourite banksy prints due to the Haring dog. I have the MBW Chocolate Vandal that has a Haring image on it also and it is one of my favourite prints due to that also.
Getting a better understanding of Harings work will definitely make you appreciate the print more.
Well done on getting one!

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by grafik on Dec 12, 2010 11:03:26 GMT 1, Grafik are you koolchris one of the biggest flippers on the scene? sureley its karma maybe?
what exactly have I flipped? please tell me. or are you just joining a bandwagon?
I sold a dface collage 4 years ago I owned with a mate, but at that point it was like someone offering 15k for your CYW. So I sold it, and bought another original, and so did he. Which also solved the problem of owning half a print.
Because i'm such a big flipper i must just have a flat full of money and no art? I must have sold on those 2 banksy's i got at source? oh and that nick walker i Qued up for, must have flipped that too. They would be great flips, could get loads for them hey!
I must just be sucking all the info from this forum, waiting to pounce on the next release, or maybe i give alot back, get dface tshirts for people who live overseas and send over 75 catalogs around the world.
bit more organised than before! so glad ive got my own place now.

i never had a go at Simon, he hasn't done anything wrong, POW got it wrong true. But i never have a go at anyone in life, if something has gone wrong, whats the point having a go at someone, whats it going to solve? just creates more arguments, I dont ever get angry at people, and i'm not angry at what happened in the Q, i'm just dissapointed and mainly embarrassed for the people who pushed in to get a bit of paper. Its not the way to act.

Right, fair enough - but from where I was standing it looked that way. Simon looked a bit uncomfortable with three guys 'talking' to him and then asked for their email addresses at the end.
Does that not suggest to you that you will be getting one of these at some stage in the near future? I'm just speculating, and it sounds like you deserve one, if for nothing else but because you did what many others wanted to do and speak your mind, so don't rule it out just yet (as I'm sure you haven't!!). I just hope you keep it if you get one...

Lottery is a lottery I've never one the national one either. However a q in my opinion is good with a lottery for one and all after just like NBg. I don't remember to much trouble or abuse after NBg release. We had a date a time ,you got there early, you got a number, you sat down drank some beers and end of story. Yes pow made mistaken security should of been there all night handing out numbers to stop the mass barage at the end, and police the q during the night. Many many forum members thought as they were ahead of the soho q they should be at commercial street and many members were out of order ( true colours perhaps)
However in all my f5s and lotterys I never met any genuine nice forum members sitting behind my laptop The ones i qed with were both friendly and generous ( kennas +1, jasper and the other guy behind me)
it was ashame you couldn't see the prints happy with mine purple is better than I thought pink is brighter and more garish than I thought and the brown one my second fav is not any more. Thanks to those I met I still owe jasper a fiver for taxi.

I take it that dissatisfaction hasn't manifest itself in lines of cars being turned over and someone drawing a giant p***s outside POWs office. Thought not!
