Identity of Banksy on EBay $US999,999

There's no denying that E-Bay features many interesting items to purchase some of which received worldwide attention. A user under the guise of 'Jaybuysthings' in the states recently offered the true identity of Banksy for sale on the network. What he offered was a piece of paper with the lads true name written or typed onto it.  Although we didn't get to see the bid it apparently reached  $US999,999 with Free Shipping Offered. The American informer said he'd tried selling the idenity before on EBay which was qucikly shutdown 'because I was selling something that was not tangible' he said 'It is now tangible,'

We found some quotes online from 'Jaybuysthings' original Item Desciptions;


"The Identity of 'Banksy'"


'If you win this auction I will mail you a piece of paper revealing the true identity of 'Banksy','


'I have uncovered his identity by matching up the prices of his sold pieces to corresponding tax records. I will reveal no more details.'


'The winner of this auction is the only person I will ever share this information with. The piece of paper will say his name, nothing more.'

'I give you 100% assurance that it is most certainly the full name of the street artist known as 'Banksy'.'

PHILISTINES - Saturday 5th February @ The Junction Rooms, 578 Kingsland Road, Dalston  9pm - 2am, free entry.

Philistines exhibition launched back in September 2010 on a Thursday at The Junction Rooms in Dalston. Word of mouth resulted in its popularity of being 'not just an art exhibition' but also a place to meet like minded characters and listen to groundbreaking music.

This art and music event has since had much support from the local community and it's popularity has seen endless interest and numbers through the door. Many art pieces have been purchased and others commissioned, there's always a handful of artists floating around so come down and say hello personally. Philistines is a hot ticket and one of the coolest places to visit.

LSD Magazine presents Revolve by Hedflux (Music Video)

Chewing through the restraints of cavernous conformity and the liquid bonds of group-think, the mischief, the bursting forms, the awe inspiring colour and the wry, winking subliminal resistance bursts out of the frames and rides the currents of direct action deep into the reshaping of our sensory identity…..
