    Julian: You don’t sell it first then pull it down, cos how much trouble is it gonna cause when X amount of people know a load of cinder blocks with a bit of stenciling on is worth 100k in a place like that?

    MV: I believe you mean Damien Hirst. But you’re right they should bank now, while they can. Some idiot could tag over it or some shit, and there goes their chances of making it rich. I’m sure Banksy wouldn’t care.

    I think it’s nice that Banksy even if indirectly has been able to contribute significant wealth to their community :)

    bumba clot… push down the bottom! Push down the bottom! Somebody bought that and paid to have it removed. You can remove graffiti from walls. Why the hell they cut the damn wall down if they weren’t planning to keep it. That shit is worth cash. Just Imagine what that piecw would be like in a museum 20 years from now. That’s gonna be something to photograph.
