Am I right in thinking no-one has come forward with a red, blue or green one yet?

Banksy • Choose Your Weapon Print, by artcollector on Dec 14, 2010 8:37:49 GMT 1, Congratulations to those who managed to get a print with honour in the queue and also to the lucky few online. To those in the queue behind me who deserved a print and didn't because of cheats, I hope that POW can 'make your Christmas'. The queue was a nightmare at times and great at other times, thank you to all the nice people that I met both on Berwick Street and Commercial Street. I was 14th in the first queue and on arrival at POW was about 105. By morning I was fortunate enough to get ticket 164 when they only gave 170 away. So grateful as this is my first banksy at source and I've been purchasing for years. I spent 8 days in London to get this chance.
People should think themselves lucky if they have received them before, it is not a God given right just because you post on here.
And for all those saying it's a crap image - get over it, so why are you still moaning? If it's that dreadfull why would you want to own it? Profit?
We all like what we like and after missing out on a Haring in auction at Bukowski's Stockholm 10 years ago it's like the next best think for me.
Well thanks again, people in the queue.

Banksy • Choose Your Weapon Print, by I like pictures on Dec 14, 2010 10:08:33 GMT 1, I was prepared to go and queue but given Im an hour from London by the time the info was released I concluded it was far to late to get there and be in the first 200 as it was first told secondly I'd been in the pub for 5 hours so couldn't have driven anyway. If the release had been notified a day in advance I would have made the trip and done the overnight thing. I also missed out on the lottery but hey ho when I finally do get one it will be all the more sweet. Congrats to all that scored and boo to those that made the queue a misery for others.

Banksy • Choose Your Weapon Print, by recycle on Dec 14, 2010 10:23:26 GMT 1, So to summerise.........
POW do not care about their customers. POW cannot even manage something they had previous experience in. Banksy supports groups who are cruel to animals. Banksy is really street as he has special preview nights and seperate releases for the rich and famous. There are people on here who buy Banksy just to flip. There are people on here who will resort to anything including violence for profit.
I love this scene!
No wonder artist like D*Face, Dran are going from strength to strength.............

Is it possible to buy an actual real Keith Haring for the price the CYWs are going for on eBay (3k+)?

That would be very annoying
I think a few people got NBG after the time was up for the original offers. Must have been a few maxed credit cards, forgotten email accounts and probably one or two unchecked junk mails.

Get real
POW do care - some are just sore losers I suspect POW were forced to release the print, given the number of people queuing up at Berwick Street - so blame those for forcing POW's hand. Do you honestly believe POW deliberately made people fight or cheat to get a print? There was no preview night There have always been people on here solely to flip - they just dont do it with Banksy's or art. There are some on here who have resorted to far worst things than violence for profit

Banksy • Choose Your Weapon Print, by ilcania on Dec 14, 2010 12:35:53 GMT 1, this thread is an utter disgrace.
So many of you should be ashamed of yourselves.
POW is a business they manage one of the biggest artists in the world today, no matter how much security they put into place or how well they monitered the queue, they would never have been able to manage a safe and sound queue overnight.
Also the amount of people here rubbishing their business is disgusting, accusing them of being crooked etc.
I take it you don't feel they are crooked when you get a print?
Do you not realise that comments like that are acually damaging to businesses ? I run a business and would take inflamatory remarks like that very seriously.
Silky you should be ashamed of not locking this thread or warning members that post things like that to cease, let's not even get in the casual racism that is being bandied about left right and center. all of you are driven by some form of greed , whether it is monetary gain or the envy of others.
As for the cat stunt , unless you are a straight edge militant vegan don't get all high and mighty over animal cruelty - if you eat meat, wear leather, makeup, you are fueling animal cruelty somewhere down the line, maybe you should do some research - just because you see some animal that you associate with being a household pet being misused it doesn't mean it gives you the right to become moralistic.
I can only think that this place is overrun by children or you have all taken a collective leave of your senses.

My sister won a choc donut, but only after deleting the POW email after thinking it was junk (it didn't have Banksy in the subject title) and then finding the email one hour before the deadline after I asked her to double check account!
So, expect a few more emails to be sent out on Thursday

Whilst i agree with most of you say this paragraph is absolute utter rubbish in my opinion, though Animal cruelty of any description is deplorable and cannot be condoned, the rearing and production practices of meat for human consumption is a whole different topic and nothing to do with throwing live Cats as a performance stunt.

If i lost fair and square i wouldn't be complaining, i'm not moaning about the lottery here am i?? Only the poor managment on the shop release. If they did care about their customers they would do an unsigned open release so whoever wanted one could have one.
I also started a thread about the Gold, silver and white editions to try to find more information but none came forward. If there was no preview night can you clarify who got the white, gold and silver ones. I openly admit this was speculation, but based on posts earlier on.
Yeah i'm bitter, but over the way it was all handled.
