Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by raiden on Dec 13, 2010 11:08:53 GMT 1, sorry but i cant let this go, This chap is saying it was right for him to push in! Just because he had come from far away and he is going to keep ths print. He also mentioned earlier he punched a guy a few times, I don't care in what situation you were in, Q jumping and violence isn't right YOU SHOULD HANG YOUR HEAD VERY LOW. I don't recall CG being of a violent disposition, quite the reverse, I was under the impression that he (along with Slammer) broke up one fight where one bloke was getting set upon by four??? People who've been around might also recall when CG sold a Banksy at cost (I can't remember who to) who then turned it around on ebay the following week. Of course he's too modest to post this so I'll do it on his behalf. This was probably around the time that you were a serial flipper Grafik under different monikers - if Webby would give his print to you then he's nuts or your mate or both..... Greed, envy and jealousy coming through in abundance now and not exactly in keeping with the season...
God I love the institutional memory of some forum members. Cheers to you. Keep em honest.

I never said he was violent, he said he punched a chap a few times, in any circumstances, breaking up a fight or not, its pretty wrong.
its ok to push in depending on how good a chap you are seems to be the jist, if you have good intentions its ok to punch a guy.
its double standards.
Im not fussed if i get this print or not, its got beyond that stage, just want to wait to the results are out and then retire myself from this place, its so political, the higher, more worthy members grouping together to protect their reputation.

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by ABC on Dec 13, 2010 11:14:43 GMT 1, fair play to Banksy for giving loads more cash away. Not sure what Voina is but will find out. So did POW release some instore? ebay is flooded with the new print. I missed what happened!
Nothing new, as stated the majority bought were destined for the bay. With such a big profit margin and in this climate, every man and his dog want some action, they couldn't give a shit about art and I don't blame them. Criminals will exploit any avenue to make money and don't care who they hurt in the process, with the flip prices it's a no brainer.
Don't get me wrong, it winds me up as much as most, I've been collecting/interested in art for 20 years+ and its not a pretty scene.

wasnt a fight really,
a local tried to push in,
then some guys started on him for pushing in
then CG who had pushed in himself (ironic) stopped the fight against the pusher inner, whilst throwing a few punches to the guys who tried to eject the pusher inner

Banksy โข Choose Your Weapon Print, by Deleted on Dec 13, 2010 11:18:25 GMT 1, You'd imagine that POW are doing some due dilligence on the list....I'd think you would be excluded if you already have bought one? One would imagine that they would take a considered view and not just send right to buy solely from what the 'computer' spits out?
Then you'd maybe get excluded if you are on their apparent shit list?
Then maybe you'd get excluded if you've won a 'lottery' previously???
Maybe???
I wish all genuine forum members all the very best and if I don't win one then you do!!

computer picks 175 names...quick crossreference against a blacklist, repeat addresses or those names who bought in store...then press send...

They don't usually take an email addy when buying in person so how would they know if you already own one. With the amount of requests I'd doubt they would check in depth. 5 emails from the same IP is an easy check for them. Ebay do it all of the time to avoid shill bidders.
Does someone who originally bought an RC from POW have any more rights than someone buying for the first time, I'd say POW have a difficult job. The amount of posts on this thread will prove that in the next few days.

To all those of us that will be unlucky, go and spend your money on work by artists that are producing some excellent work at a fraction of the cost. Treat yourself.

Ok, let me put this then, what if someone who got one at the queue today discovers he/she has also won one in the lottery and decides out of the kindness of their heart to let it go to someone else?, do they simply click on "No i dont want this piggin print cheers" and let it go back into the pot at POW?, just asking.

I wouldnt say there will be an option for that. But if you leave it, it will go back in the pot after 48 hrs.
