Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by Trevorm on Dec 12, 2010 23:19:17 GMT 1, At least when I get mine through the lottery tomorrow it'll have the tube postmarked etc. So not to worry about the POW stamp and COA. I won't be selling - so who cares

I managed to park my 4x4 next to my place in line and offered shelter to some of the others in the line. (tv heated seats) Very nice.
Nice one!
Queueing in style, bet the tv and warmth was most welcome!

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by curiousgeorge on Dec 12, 2010 23:31:14 GMT 1, CuriousGeorge manage to get to the front of both ques at Berwick and POW (nice to see the nice turquoise) although he rocked up late at both ones, don't know how, charm, bribery, BJโs Any info. on this?
A combination of all three, AND later arriving in time and watching my position fall very quickly (10mins) Sorry
70-100 people being paid to queue and arriving en masse to queue, sorry i didn't spend a lot of hours travelling see that happen.Very far from being alone in this though i won't name 'n shame them as i see no shame in that situation. Queue counters were very frequent and each count was 15 -20 to me.It was do nothing and end up in the 300's,go home or take action
From the people i've heard who did the same and (oddly enough all being hangers rather than sellers) they too are glad they took action

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by love on Dec 12, 2010 23:42:54 GMT 1, Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that we arrived well back home. We'll (better known as german couple) write a longer statement tomorrow, that you'll see a banksy release through the eyes of a "tourist". Big hugs, to all the guys & ladies we met out there in big dark London.

Love! It was a pleasure meeting you in the Berwick Street queue and as chuffed as I am getting a print myself I was very pleased on your outcome. To have gone back to Germany empty handed would have been unfair. Congrats and well done!

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by grafik on Dec 13, 2010 0:03:51 GMT 1, You took the piss big style on both queues, if we all did what you did it would of been a total riot. No excuse for it, your lucky I am an easy going guy and also calmed a few people down who wanted to kick you to the back. Thanks for that, Dave. CuriousGeorge cut in the que. Other members can make of that what they will. Many people didn't cheat and left empty-handed. Some people won't care. Some will.
wonder why they all attacked me as a flipper when I said I would out Q jumpers.

I was 32nd in that queue but my friend collapsed, I had to leave to get him medical help....I still got the 32 written on my hand by sohosteve as a painful reminder

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by wizzy on Dec 13, 2010 0:16:37 GMT 1, This thread is becoming a bit heated now i reckon, It was a queue for a print on posh paper not a queue for a major organ, some people got one and some didnt for one reason or another, its in the past now so nothing that happened is going to change. Christ, whats it going to be like post lottery when some people will possibly end up with two or more prints while others have none?, will people say the lucky ones from the queue shouldnt have registered?,in which case how were they to know they would get one at the queue?. Its a print, you will not croak without one. (can you tell i didnt get one??).

A couple from Germany (who were behind us at the queue in Commercial Street) who had decided to visit London for 24 hours on the off chance of a Banksy release arrived a few minutes later and were numbers 59 and 60. We later found out that 60 prints were available at M&S.
i met these two a few times - didn't see them on commercial street when the tickets were handed out - so glad they got something - really nice and very committed guys.

but, boy am I a sucker for stories of some forum members, who are supposedly fans, winning in a short-timeframe wartime situation like that...but, I know, gotta keep it moral and legal at all times....
