To be honest, I wish there was fuck all to buy there except a pint, a pizza and a programme. Too many people buying tickets to get in and buy up what they can then leave without any interest in the art, just to stick it in eBay for a quick buck. People also selling tickets to make a few quid on them, very sad indeed! Get a proper job! Mum?

( I have nothing agians locals at the contrary - I dont speak about the 18% from the UKIP ) , but I think that the ones who are selling these goodies ( that's the word in fact - on ebay , are people unable to come often at Dsiamaldn for 3 quids.. Mauybe there is a secret organisation : " Operation Dismaland " they call them and they stole all the Balloons yo the " imbecile " - but not mine - , crying kids ;-)

Now that you mention it, quite a few of the eBayed legitimately purchased (as well as stolen) items, do seem to be from Bristol and WSM. We all expected money to be going into the local economy because of Dismaland, but I was thinking B&Bs, taxis, chippies, etc.
People make hay while the sun shines, I guess? Then sell that hay on eBay.

I was thinking earlier. The mucky ducks aren't hard to reproduce. And you could easily put a policeman figure from a railway accessory supplier on eBay, claiming it's from the Cauty diorama.
You'd basically be pretending to be a thief, when in actual fact, you wouldn't be a thief, just a fraudster.

Shit. That reminds me of my friends ex-girlfriend. She had a habit of stealing art from the walls of restaurants, as (in her words) they don't appreciate it. You'd be leaving a restaurant and she'd open her bag, showing you a framed picture. FFS. I just can't believe how many people are, not only stealing things, but happily admitting it in eBay listings.

Strangely I did think of taking a duck into there and just giving them a duck. Sort of reverse stealing.
I thought of other things too, I'll let you know how they pan out.

One of the things I really dislike about being a Banksy fan, is the keyword spamming on eBay.
Now, everything has fucking "Dismaland" in its title.
"stainless steel saucepan set *never used* ***look see*** BANKSY DISMALAND"
Edit: And yes, I know that's a first world problem. But you work with what you have and I happen to live in the first world. If I lived in the lost world, I'd be bitchin' about how dinosaurs always attack you when you're trying to take a dump.

Staying over here, not taking our jobs... Lol, upside-down Plip... But nothing about migrants... Yes, it was not funny but derison : " locals go home ! " I just read since two days some articles about Banksy/Dismaland in France ( we are a bit sensitive in my ( its not mine anyway, my old gypsie blood knows that ) because we have a lot of Front National here ) ... So they said , in these serious newspapers, than WSM have 18% UKIP but, also, that everbody is happy because Banksy brings a lot of tourists, money etc... ( It s a bit the same with ebay ) ... Yes, I wrote that on the other forum ( sorry ) : why Banksy ( or his Pr ) has never criticized all the Bristol sales on ebay ( 5 years ago ) with 3 or 5 " Anarchy " posters per persons, and then already sold around 250/280 on ebay ( I konw I bought one ! ) ? And why, now , today ( this modern world running faster and faster about a piece of cheese ) they " condamn " - big word, I mean they want to stop - sales of Balloons or other goodies - because yes, it is goodies, even if an artist creates them ( for me Kaws an Dface sells goodies too ) ... They deserve the humble people who wants to bring back home what they like. ps / But it s true ( I read that too ) , People going to Dismaland should enjoy Dismaland first and not to think first to bring back home, bling/balloons,/redfish etc.. But can we condamn them ? No they do the same in all attractions parks, in Disneyland or European fairs ) ... And people likes hope and souvenirs... and it is art but also an attraction park ! Ps bis : I condamn totally all robberries. And I dont like ebay too. Ebay could help each parties. But Ebay is capitalism disease too. Sorry for my local English migrant

Ps bis : I condamn totally all robberries. And I dont like ebay too. Ebay could help each parties. But Ebay is capitalism disease too. Sorry for my local English migrant That's ok, Roy. I just hate local people. I'm quite racist like that (even though they're not a race). I can't stand them. Anyway, I don't know what Banksy and co. think of the flipping of merchandise. You can look at the flipping in different ways. On the one hand, you have parasites, buying up handfuls of merchandise, depriving the other fans from buying things and making it harder for those that want a balloon to obtain one. On the other hand, you can imagine that there are people facing financial hardship, that might choose to take advantage of this temporary art flipping opportunity. The money they raise from flipping 50 programmes might be put towards food, taxi fares to the local disabled kids group, shoes without holes in them, fags. On another, the artists might be getting a fair split of the merchandise sold, so maybe they want to maximise the money that's raised? If they see programmes selling for £20 online, they might think "Hey, why aren't we selling them for 20 quid? Paint costs money". On yet another hand, Dismaland might have underestimated how many items they were going to shift, so while they are awaiting more stock, they're raising prices in order to slow down the sales of what they still have, but without losing financial income from it. How many hands do we have? There are other hands. Feet too. In a nutshell, I don't know what they're doing. We're all just trying to find our way in this mixed up crazy world. And gosh darn it, artists are just as fallible as the rest of us. I would say they they're probably doing the best they can, but they can't please all of us. I wish they could. It's all just stuff at the end of the day. And you can't eat it. I've tried.
