Forum stands strong though - it is hard to post a FS on here and really succeed in getting away with anything. I buy on here with a ton of confidence. Kinda hard to get swindled if you've been around the block on the UAA... and I haven't even been here that long!     Agreed, ive bought plenty on here and all have been excellent transactions. Buy the seller first then have a look at whatever they are selling.
That's a good way of doing business here I think.
Lots of trusted sellers on here.

Not so happy for those not as savvy as you and there will always be one or two unfortunately. I didnt mean to come across as being savvy or smart arsed, more advising its best to research the seller before you procure owt. That said, if anyone purchases this print from this seller then i can give them the contact details of an African prince offering oilfield shares and all you need do is provide your bank details.  . (Don't worry sense of humour is intact)!

No it did not come across like that to me - I was trying to emphasise that you are lucky and obviously savvy enough - not everybody is, as you can tell from the questions being asked. Continue being lucky . Being of African origin (we are all prince's by the way) I will ignore that last comment . (Don't worry sense of humour is intact)! |

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by djparasite on Feb 16, 2016 22:02:18 GMT 1, Seriously..its Poster Bog who is the scam!! He said he wanted to buy the print, decided to cancel then demanded his deposit back within the hour! I actually agreed but said it would take a couple of days to pay back the full deposit, at which he went thru a plethora of fake lies to PayPal in order to get them to refund the deposit...which they did!! he moaned that he hadn't had it, then that it didn't match the description...?
So what if he had seen the item for sale elsewhere...it was for sale elsewhere!! we had clearly not accepted any other offers!!??
His last flaming ran out as he was told to stop harping on!?
He then went onto ebay, with a couple of mates...bid on it under a false name then refused to reply to any of our messages.
This person is a bitter, vindictive troll who has nothing better to do than tell lies and lurk maliciously!! This is not a scam!! The only person who is a scammer is PB and his sad little friends who, cos they can't have it don't want anyone else to have it!!
If he doesn't stop his outrageous accusations it is me who will be seeking legal redress. Just cos he changed his mind, cancelled his order and I agreed!? he is completely unjustified in this outrageous string of accusations!! Ignore him and his lies..he is a sad old git who has nothing better to do than haunt art forums slagging off anyone who crosses his path...

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by .dappy on Feb 16, 2016 22:03:53 GMT 1, This is the piece on ebay that was apparently sold for £11.3k
m.ebay.co.uk/itm/131723628654?roken=cUgayN&_mwBanner=1
Username: kis_an8(29) from Bristol as stated above
100.0 % Positive Feedback
... and ebay description, which others have said isacopy of what was put on here:
I have an original Banksy 'Love is in the air' print, unsigned, limited edition of 500, 70cm x 50cm and in excellent condition (only 1 owner - me . COA from Pest Control applied for and imminent! :-)
This is one of the most well-known and sought after of Banksy's works. It was produced at the beginning of his career, and sold as a limited edition screen print in 2003 as part of a fund-raiser for Greenleaf bookshop in Bristol.
Will sell immediately for £10Kono. I will send the COA as soon as it is received (or with print if it arrives before sale). I am so confident of the authenticity that I will refund in full any payment should any problem arise with this authentication process.

Looks like the 50 post rule is no longer in place, soon as its removed we get a prominent crook posting on here. Well done!!! I would say that it's just coincidence as people post ignorant of the rules and this chap/chapess only has a few posts hopefully we'll hear his/her version of the story. However, to a cynical third party observer it might look anything but coincidental |

As you are trying to sell a piece on the forum and think you've been harshly judged, by all means it is only right that you try and set the record straight, otherwise it would be unfair on you as there might be some potential buyers out there. If it gets out of hand, the "guardians" can always step in and do what they do .... |

Banksy • Flower Thrower • Love is in the Air, by djparasite on Feb 16, 2016 23:36:58 GMT 1, Could be the same as the Ebay listing. Interestingly the winner has 0 feedback score.
Worth pointing out that the 'winner' of the eBay auction was in fact Posterbob...no surprise really...if anyone is trying to pull a fast one here, its him!
He's been trolling me ever since he panicked and demanded a refund (which he got). So now he's all bitter and jaded that he didn't get a quality print for a really good price. Sad really...
I'm new to the art forum and don't mingle in these circles. I'm just a fan trying to pass on a classic piece for a decent price...no harm in that!? It was a present from a friend for babysitting, when Banksy was a little known local graff artist. I honestly didn't realise I needed the print authenticating...or how long it would take or how unpleasant people would be about it!
Buy it, or don't....get a life Poster Bob

I don't think they're stock photos. The seller appears to have decided to relist under a different account. There is no real reason why not to.
I think I might have just become the 'someone is wrong on the internet' person .. 'quietly tiptoes off'

Money back guarantee if COA doesnt turn up, cant ask for any more than that after you've parted with your £10k.

Price bands apply here , not every one can afford signed prints and as unsigned have been constantly rising , guys are willing to take the risk and buy
Just need two big collectors like the ones who bought up lots of Warhol prints in the late 90s to fuel the next big increase

And as a buyer, don't even think of parting with your money without the above, no matter how convincing the seller is in how genuine they think it is. Personally, if a banksy was advertised on gumtree as this was, I would also stay well away and also the immediacy of sale without COA is another alarm bell, but that's just my opinion.

Some people panic with out a coa
But you can sometimes get a bargain !
I bought a banksy with out coa or paper trail £1000 cheaper at the time than the market value from eBay
, immediately applied to pest control , dropped the print off in person and two weeks later had coa!
I should of booked in really!
The way listing was described if it was a fake I could claim back through eBay and PayPal.
Without documents should be lower than market value to cover the hassle of chasing up documents
