No rest for the clever
After purchasing Banksy's newest compendium for my young (and hopefully impressionable) cousin a few weeks ago, my appreciation of his work deepened significantly. Since then, he's punk'd Paris and now Disneyland. More power to him.
In a bit of irony one should have seen coming a mile away, the alternative Paris CD's he distributed, in a hip ltd. ed. run of 500, started hitting eBay almost immediately. There's currently one going for $400 with four days left. I saw another one last week listed for a flat price of $2,200. You can fool some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool the market!
