Banksy • Choose Your Weapon Print, by anbesivam1 on Sept 1, 2013 15:19:44 GMT 1, In Keith Haring iconography the very popular "three-eyed" imagery is used to represent "Greed". 3 out of 4 White CYW's I have seen have had three-eyes (red dots on the head). I can only guess that Banksy has used a similar meaning for his CYW specials as Haring used for his pieces. Other numbers signify other human traits...perhaps some more knowledgeable members can help out here? Quote from Haring Foundation: "The three-eyed Face, another of Haring’s figures which appears repeatedly, and was on the cover of the catalogue for Keith Haring’s first one-man exhibition, which took place in 1982 in Tony Shafrazi’s New York gallery, in some way first establishes the uncompromising positive element, and carries it straight through to the unmentioned dark side" What about the 4th? How did that differ Sri.....more or less dots?
More dots mate...seen in a photo only...shown to me by a friend's friend!!

He's correct, one edition of 25 with varying amounts of red dots and a separate plain white edition numbered to 20.

Banksy • Choose Your Weapon Print, by Happy Shopper on Sept 2, 2013 11:17:46 GMT 1, Would be interesting to see what price this can get. In my opinion CYW is overpriced anyway, so what can a hand finished, "rare" (not anymore rare than the rest in reality) sell for? Am I right in thinking you can still get a small editioned canvas for around £22K? If so, then this should be arounf 12-15K? This certainly can't be worth more that a sprayed Radar Rat or Rude Copper !!?? Does that make sense?

Banksy • Choose Your Weapon Print, by Ruggs on Sept 2, 2013 12:44:40 GMT 1, In recent years the cheapest and easiest editioned Banksy canvas to always come up was the 'Lenin on Skates', ed.25. I seem to remember prices of around the £15k-20k mark, but that has become much rarer to find and the price I suspect has gone up somewhat too.

Obviously that isn't sufficient. it's not super secret. you have to have bought some stuff from them, developed a relationship and not broken their trust. It's not about how much you've spent, or when you spent it, but just like any industry about working with the people there. The nice thing with them having COAs is it's quite easy to see who is flipping prints just after release when the COAs change hands.
Someone flipping a VIP print is quite unlikely to get another one.
