yeah, the Morons came on POW around midday last year. That was my first Banksy purchase, it was a smooth sale. No F5'n or anything. A mate of mine 'Phat Planet' contacted me and said 'there on'. I jumped on the site and made a purchase. I grabbed a unsigned stupidly, I could of got a signed, but I had heard all the hype, so I clicked the first 'add to basket' button I saw.
Trolley was a different story... A month of F5'n...Day and night. Bloody hell. When they dropped, I bagged a signed colour edition. Bloody beauty.
Stop & Search was another month of F5'n day and night. The night I fell asleep early was the night they hit the Santa Ghetto site... They came up about 5mintues after I had fallen asleep. Bugger. I love the print, mostly because its Banksy, but to be honest I'm not overally disappointed I missed out on this one.
I'm still looking for a reasonably priced Applause though. I no GBH has this one. Thats my favorite.
Also ffrom last years Santa Ghetto, I wish I bought Paul Insects release. I had it in my basket and I was talked out of it by a mate. I'm still kicking myself over that.
I wish Banksy would release the 'First Aid' image as a print. I love the message.

Firefox didn't work? Your on a mac?
Don't scare me Waxology, I use Fireofox on a Mac. I'd hate to think I could have the problem on a Banksy release. I haven't had trouble before though.
Glad you got one Waxology. Shame you missed the SPQR.

haha nah Firefox on a PC. it went to the detaisl screen but when i hit next to go to payment it just went to a blank screen with "1 item in basket"
So over to IE and it worked fine.
But i could be wrong it could be my name... my surname has an apostrophe which i removed for the IE attempt.. so didn't try that in FF... the apostrophe is forever causing problems with online forms.

Interesting issues with the payment... luckily it knew by your IP address who you were so you could collect the same basket in a different Browser.
I just got one as well... I already had the Bunny prinbt - had it for years - so it seemed best I had the pair. Whilst I was there I had a look round and noticed all the cheaper stuff has gone... real shame as art is now less acessible from the big sites. I guess those starting out will buy more from the likes of the new artists starting out showing their stuff on Banky.info from the £50 thread etc...

I guess Sold Out is final with POW - They seem to just not show 'add to basket' when theyre printing more...
Glad a few of us got one. Its funny how them getting low on stuff focuses the mind to buy one... Ive know about these for years and not bothered as I knew I could get one later... LOL

POW NEWS
New Release later today...
Vhils walks the streets of his native Portugal and takes pictures of homeless people, he turns these into oversize silkscreens and prints the images onto thick art paper with a concoction of household bleaches and then dribbles ink over them. This is simply what he does.
