Banksy โข Tesco Petrol Bomb Poster, by thehighlife on May 8, 2011 10:51:33 GMT 1, I can relate to how some of you from the US feel. Being from "up north" we hardly get a look in on anything Banksy either. But... Let's put this in perspective, this was a really s**tty image. It would mean absolutely nothing to anyone in the US, and doesn't really mean too much to me. Sounds like a lot of people desperate for something just because it's by Banksy. Is it really not about the art anymore, and now just about the name???
well put! maybe he should do a Wal-mart edition for the US, lol.

Banksy โข Tesco Petrol Bomb Poster, by boaty on May 8, 2011 12:27:26 GMT 1, I would like to add that I DO NOT want this terrible poster! However, I'd like to put in for a favor now, for the UK guys to get me something actually worth owning when the time comes. I can't believe the hype, and how many of us are actually bitter for not getting one. I am not bitter - I am just surprised and disappointed - Imagine if Banksy released this poster in America and no one offered any to our friends in the UK - the comments that would be flying around this place would be plentiful. Remember how many people from America sent Pet Shop business cards overseas and DFACE popcorn boxes and MBW posters.
to be fair - I'm in NY and was offered a poster by a very kind UK based forum member...didn't ask for a thing in return, either...

shouldn't be surprising - that's the thing about proper die-hard fans, they collect small and big things...nothing is too small...

Fair play, would be nice for people to put things into perspective though.

Banksy โข Tesco Petrol Bomb Poster, by mmmike on May 8, 2011 14:06:18 GMT 1, The feeling might pass, who knows but this 5 GBP poster is one of my favorite Banksy pieces. In terms of execution and technique it might not be the strongest. It might even be the weakest (but who am I to say). In terms of message, subject matter, back story, support for a great cause, affordability for the fans I think it is an amazing poster. I really want one. I'm a bit torn because I'm sure prices will come down but I'm also sure there will be thousands of fakes as well. Not sure how much of a difference real or fake would be but I think I want a real one because there might be some quality lost in the fake one.
If anyone wants to sell one cheap, I'd try to hook you up on the next big release here in Toronto lol.

If you are insinuating that I can afford to pay the 100 - 200 pounds for one of these posters on ebay than you are correct - but that was not the point for my post. I was just stating that I was very surprised that more of the Petrol Bomb posters were not being offered at a reasonable price and or trade to forum members that do not live closer to the Book Fair.

No, its nothing about what you can afford. Its more the fuss over a poster.
EDIT: I hope you find one, but I just think its all crazy

Don't stress it
The forum is not as generous as it once was, maybe it's because money is scarce these days?

I was contacted by so many people you wouldn't believe it. I sorted as many people out as I possibly could have and I know a few others that are doing the same. However there weren't that many people i recognised from the forum there. 5 people max. That doesn't mean that there weren't many more. but I've been to a lot of shows in Bristol and London and stood in a lot of queues. It was just full of students, simple as that.
