Re: [MOPO] Heritage charges

as we all know what happened at some point was internet spreading all over .before that there were lesser sellers who artificially kept all prices high with stores and catalogues/auctions only sales .i think for collectors this has been an amazing evolution to grow their collections , as for

Re: [MOPO] stolen cabin in the sky 6 sheet

It is easier to sell something stolen like this than one might think. When my posters were stolen several years back, they were given as collateral for a loan to a collector than is very much involved in our hobby. I mean nobody leaves over $30,000 worth of posters with someone for a $2500

Re: [MOPO] stolen cabin in the sky 6 sheet

I truly hate thieves; nothing lower than taking things that do not belong to you. I hope he's caught and punished accordingly. (I must say that this is also either a very selective thief or someone who's on crack if they think it'll be an easy, anonymous sell/fence.) One question, though: how

[MOPO] WTB or Wanting to Scan following 20s and 30s MGM (mostly) press books...

Hey there, This is a list of pressbooks in which I would love to own to scan, or just trade or remit to scan (as they are so rare, or at least I’ve had trouble finding them the past five years or so.) They are mainly MGM pressbooks ranging in the 1927 to 1934 timeframe. I would add one for

Re: [MOPO] stolen cabin in the sky 6 sheet

Poster Man Big Dan, You know I’ll look out for it since that little house in the upper left-hand corner (with the horns protruding from it) is by Hirschfeld. Heritage last sold one in 2008 for just under 10K, so for California law it is ten times the grand theft larceny lower limit. I feel

[MOPO] stolen cabin in the sky 6 sheet

If anyone out there, especially in the greater Los Angeles area, is offered an original 6 sheet from "Cabin in the Sky" it is almost certainly the one recently stolen from collector Ron Finley's exhibit at the African-American Museum in Los Angeles. It was removed from the exhibit in a frame,

I agree with Rich entirely here. We all resent rising prices, but Heritage is just one of millions of business experiecing rising costs. Kirby McDaniel www.movieart.com > On Jun 16, 2016, at 1:37 PM, Richard Halegua Posters + Comic Art >

Re: [MOPO] Heritage charges

I largely agree with Ira and disagree with Simon in some ways for the most part, I win very little under $100, and so the $19 min bp means nothing as I'm already paying 19.5% if you only bid in the signature auctions, then the $19 min has no effect as nothing sells under $100 in those, so

Re: [MOPO] Heritage charges

I guess I come at this from a collector view. And I have never sold anything that I have bought before. So I am probably a little naïve about it all. And if I was selling a lot of items, then of course I would want a maximum of options to sell through. To me the relationship between

Re: [MOPO] Heritage charges

Yes I think Wim pointed out by what you wrote Ira..”dominant” by definition that means, control or power over others and when that happens a market becomes stale and unexciting, the business of collecting and dealing did seem all more exciting a few years back. It also seems to me that allot

Re: [MOPO] Heritage charges

I think you will see that through this move, Heritage will eliminate people listing lower priced items. As a business if they can focus on higher ticket items there is a higher return per item.There is a fixed labor cost per item you list, and as a business obviously you want to

Agree..I think it was good to start with now, it seems the film poster business has lost allot because of them‎ and their patrons.

Re: [MOPO] Heritage charges

I'm sure they justified it to their shareholders in the normal way...growth must come at a cost...to the users. And I imagine they were pleased with this news. The non-stop greed in this world is really intense these days! Thankfully this hobby has other venues and less grabby sellers. M

Just noticed that from this weekend Heritage Auctions is charging a minimum buyer's commission of $19, an increase of 36%. I just wonder how they justify that? Tommy Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com
