Buying Banksy Prints

The authenticity problem

The first rule for buying any work of art is buy it because you love it. If you’re buying a Banksy artwork as an investment there are no guarantees its value will keep rising – be thrilled to own it and let the market do what it wants. The main issue with buying Banksy prints online is determining authenticity. Are you buying a legit Banksy or making a very expensive mistake? The absolute safest way is to only buy from official Banksy outlets. From 2003 to 2017 that meant Pictures on Walls who, sadly, are no longer making prints. With everything long sold out on Banksy’s Gross Domestic Product and no movement on BBay “your first choice destination to trade in secondhand work by a third-rate artist” – we’ll have to go elsewhere…

Pest Control Banksy

Enter Pest Control

Pest Control are the sole point of contact for Banksy. Their Keeping it Real service gives buyers the opportunity to check authenticity before parting with their cash. If the seller already has a certificate of authenticity (COA) Pest Control will run it against their database – if the seller doesn’t have a COA they can apply to have it verified for a fee (screenprints are £50 +VAT). MyArtBroker has a great write up of Pest Control’s ingenious verification system.

Pest Control only authenticates commercial work. Only when the work of art was sold to be owned and not created for all they will do their magic. If your collection happens to include a neat street sign or Di-Faced Tenner, you’re all out of luck. Pest Control won’t help you authenticate it. This is due to the simple reason that Banksy has said that his non-commercial work should not be owned by anyone.

— Read the article on Up & Coming Art

So steer clear of any ‘original’ Banksy screenprints without a Pest Control COA. If the seller’s not prepared to have the work verified that’s all you need to know.

Where to buy Banksy prints online?

For initial research Banksy Unofficial do a nice job of cataloguing Banksy’s print releases by year, with 50 motives in total.

Also in London Lazarides Gallery, run by Steve Lazarides – Banksy’s de facto agent for 11 years – is worth contacting for prices of available prints.

727 Gallery would be my next stop for a large range of authenticated signed and unsigned Banksy screenprints. Finally I’d hop over to Amsterdam’s Lionel Gallery for an equally wide selection of verified Banksy prints for sale.

Banksy auctions and valuations

Steve Lazarides started out selling Banksy screen prints for just £25. Many of those prints are now worth hundreds of thousands of pounds. Small change compared to the £9.9 million “Devolved Parliament” or “Game Changer” which sold earlier this year raising £16.7 million for the NHS.

£16.7m Sold

Donated to Southampton General Hospital in May 2020.

So how do you begin to work out what to pay for a Banksy screenprint?

Banksy Print Value is a good place to start. Collating data from over 2,000 Banksy auction prices into their Banksy Print Index (BPI!) with separate charts for prints, originals, upcoming auctions and completed auctions. MyArtBroker’s free valuations service is another excellent resource, and they keep records for all his most in-demand screen prints in their Print by Print Guide. Let’s use Banksy’s 2007 screen print Stop & Search to illustrate historic prices…

Selling Banksy Prints


Watch this two minute Antiques Roadshow clip for a primer on what not to do…

Sell a Banksy print at a major auction house and wave goodbye to 25% of your sale price. See our art auction recommendations for alternatives, top of which is The Saleroom with just 5% fees. Alternatively, sell for free – by using a conduit who specialise in the market and can connect you with the largest dedicated network. MyArtBroker are the dominant player when it comes to Banksy. Their fees are 0% and they have a wide range of wanted Banksy prints posted by their audience of print collectors. Their Banksy Seller’s Guide is a good resource for digging deeper too. Still not sure? Check out MyArtBroker’s Google reviews – rated 4.9 out of 5 from over 100 Banksy sellers and buyers. In an art market rarely celebrated for integrity you can sense the relief over how smoothly everything went, the ease of communication and attention to detail followed by a satisfying selling or buying price. Kudos to MyArtBroker for setting the standard by going above and beyond.

Selling your Banksy on eBay

It’s a riskier business than MyARtBroker but if you’re comfortable with eBay you’ll get the most bang for your buck by waiting for a weekend eBay seller promotion paying only £1 in fees no matter the final sale price. eBay lands you a global audience, seller protection and the option to set a reserve price you’re comfortable with. Be stringent in setting buyer requirements to mitigate chances of fraudulent buyers.

Banksy eBay Tips


Banksy - Soup Cans

Banksy – Soup Cans (Unsigned)

Offset lithograph from 2004 printed by POW in edition of 1,000. 83 x 59cm.

eBay’s elephant in the room

Fraudulent listings, seller disputes, poor packaging, items ‘getting lost in the post’… we all know the eBay list of doom. Following the rules below will limit your doom list.

eBay ground rules

1. Dig in to the seller’s feedback. Anything less than 100% positive rating and delighted customers from similar art sales leaves you vulnerable. 2. Look for detailed descriptions, Pest Control verification and high quality photos. A good seller will provide more photos and answer follow up questions. 3. Pay with a credit card (via Paypal for extra protection) for Section 75 coverage up to £30,000. eBay’s money back guarantee covers you further.

Searching the haystack

From knock off Banksy ‘originals’ to passable reproductions masquerading as limited editions eBay can be a minefield for buying Banksy prints. Add to that the sheer number of results and sellers piggybacking on Banksy’s name whether relevant or not and your headache is complete. A regular search for ‘Banksy’ has over 150,000 results! Advanced search is your friend in navigating a way through the jungle. This advanced eBay search narrows it down to a few dozen results searching both title and description for “Banksy – Pest Control” along with a bunch of negative keywords and a minimum price of £150. Click ‘Save this search’ to receive an email whenever a new artwork is added. It’s the best way I’ve found of grabbing a ‘Buy it Now’ bargain before anyone else.

Banksy posters


Original Banksy screen prints for less than five or six figure sums are largely a thing of the past so many collectors have turned to Banksy posters from exhibitions and events. Prices are more in the three to four figure range making them a more affordable way to own a Banksy themed artwork you love. When it comes to buying Banksy posters eBay is king. Posters usually aren’t verified by Pest Control so determining authenticity can be trickier so don’t be afraid to eek out as much information as possible on its provenance. The following selection link directly to the latest eBay results for each poster.

Banksy - Love is in the Bin, Museum Frieder Burda

Banksy – Love is in the Bin

Offset lithograph. 60cm x 85cm.

Love is in the Bin

We all know what happened to Banksy’s 2006 painting of ‘Girl with Balloon’ right after it was sold at auction for a record £1,042,000 in 2018. Love is in the Bin was born. Its next stop was four weeks at the Frieder Burda Museum in Baden-Baden, Germany where this poster was available.

Banksy Save Or Delete Greenpeace Poster

Banksy – Save Or Delete Greenpeace Poster

2002. A2 size (42 x 59cm)

Save or Delete

Original poster print produced for Greenpeace in 2002. Disney threatened legal action so the posters were never circulated. The original artwork sold for £78,000. Most posters were sent for recycling so remaining prints (and stickers) are rare.

Di-faced tenners


Banksy - Di-Faced Tenner

Banksy – Di-Faced Tenner

2004. Offset lithograph. 7.62 x 14.61cm.

Trust No One

One side has a portrait of Princess Diana accompanied by the motto: “I promise to pay the bearer on demand the ultimate price.” Darwin’s portrait sits above ‘Trust no one’ on the other. It’s pure Banksy, distilled down to an 8 x 15cm bank note. A Di-faced Tenner is now the only Banksy in the British Museum’s collection after being acquired in 2019 via Pest Control donation. Backstory time:

At least 100,000 Di Faced Tenners were printed by Banksy in August 2004 – in total £1,000,000 in fake currency. Banksy created them for a public art stunt which involved dropping a suitcase full of the fake tenners into the crowd at the Notting Hill Carnival and at the Reading Festival. Some of these counterfeit notes were used by festival-goers as actual currency.

Buying Di-faced tenners

‘Trust No One’ could double up as the motto for buying Di-faced tenners. Read Up & Coming Art’s summary of the issues at hand. “Only a small proportion of these bank notes originally produced are in circulation and almost none of them have any sort of authenticity documentation” lamented London based ​Andipa Gallery. So in April 2020 they launched Andipa Editions offering a limited edition of Banksy Di-faced Tenners with official hand-signed letters of provenance from Banksy’s original art agent, Steve Lazarides of Laz Inc. One will set you back £2,000. This search for Di-faced tenners on eBay includes the Laz Inc letter but be careful as they can be falsified too so stick with genuine collectors or galleries.


Peckham Rock


>Banksy - Peckham Rock

Banksy – Peckham Rock

With receipt and bag from the British Museum.

The origin story

Bansky secretly installed his Peckham Rock ‘cave painting’ in the British Museum in 2005. No one noticed anything untoward until three days later when staff were alerted to the artwork via Banksy’s website! Banksy’s work was removed but was to reappear thirteen years later as part of iObject, an exhibition curated by Ian Hislop on objects that challenge authority. Listen to Ian Hisplop talk about Banksy’s Peckham Rock (18 min 55 sec in) or order the accompanying book I object: Ian Hislop’s search for dissent.

Dismaland


Dismaland bemusement park

In Autumn 2015, Banksy transformed a disused lido on Weston-super-Mare’s seaside pier into Dismaland – the “family theme park unsuitable for children.” This Dazed and Confused article, written three years later, does a nice job of reflecting with locals on the impact and legacy of the event that drew the world’s media and over 200,000 visitors in just thirty six days. Many of those visitors left with a Dismaland themed item or two – and some of those end up on eBay. But please be careful, there are lots of items purporting to be Banksy artworks, currency or original prints from Dismaland and they’re just not. None were for sale at Dismaland. The items below were…

The Walled Off Hotel


banksy - The Walled Off Hotel

In the Spring of 2017, a hundred years after the British took control of Palestine, Banksy’s Walled Off Hotel opened to the world as ‘a genuine art hotel with fully functioning ensuite facilities’ in Bethlehem, Palestine.

The Piano Bar reflects this colonial past alongside original Banksy artworks. The aim of the hotel is to put any profits back into local projects – the gallery is the largest permanent space in Palestine for Palestinian artists to show their work.

Buying Walled Off Hotel Artworks

Gross Domestic Product


Banksy - Gross Domestic Product

Gross Domestic Product was set up in 2019 as ‘The homewares brand for Banksy’. A pop-up shop of the same name was set up in Croydon displaying Banksy’s artworks ‘for display purposes only’. The following letter, penned by the artist, explains how we got here…

Banksy - GDP Letter ‘Availability will be limited’ was an epic understatement when the online store went live. Collectors were only allowed to buy one artwork and answer the question ‘why does art matter?’. British comedian Adam Bloom would judge the answers and the funniest, most enlightening, or original would be added to a lottery to ‘win’ their artwork of choice (and pay the listed price). Collectors would receive their Pest Control COA two years after purchase with the aim of restricting wheeler dealers putting their purchase straight on eBay. The good news for Banksy (not so much for after market collectors) is this mostly worked, aside from the Welcome Mats very few GDP items made it on to eBay.

The copyright conundrum

Are reproductions of Banksy art authorised to be sold by third parties? In a word, no. Pest Control want as many people as possible to freely enjoy and interact with Banksy art regardless of status or income, hence the non-commercial caveat. But how does an artist who doesn’t want to reveal his identity claim copyright ownership which demands revealing your identity? It’s complicated if not impossible. This BBC article from 2020 covered Banksy trademark legal wrangling and is still sparking off heated discussion threads in 2021. The bottom line for Pest Control is…

Neither Banksy or Pest Control licence the artist’s images to third parties. Please do not use Banksy’s images for any commercial purpose, including launching a range of merchandise or tricking people into thinking something is made or endorsed by the artist when it isn’t.

The artist would like to make it clear that he continues to encourage the copying, borrowing and uncredited use of his imagery for amusement, activism and education purposes. Feel free to make merch for your own personal entertainment and non-profit activism for good causes.

All those cheap Banksy prints and canvases on Amazon, Etsy and eBay might seem like a great deal but are in no way endorsed by Banksy. RedBubble’s range of Banksy wall art, t-shirts and accessories are equally guilty. Design By Humans clothing and print range show a more creative approach using Banksy artworks as a starting point to create new designs.
