Okay, so now she has a note in red at the bottom of her pics of the
Portal Dracula now stating NOTE;There has been quite a few Emails
regarding this posters origins.We found this Poster in a back room of
a 20s era Movie Theater when We were in there searching for the
theaters audio equiptment and speakers.We showed large,clear images
so You can decide for Yourself.We also accidently used the auction
template from the previous auction which says "No Reserve" The
reserve is 299.50.Thanks,Sharon
Of course, she has also been informed of the poster's pedigree which
she is 'conveniently' not disclosing. So I am now going to let her
know that as the poster IS a reprint and NOT 'ORIGINAL 1931' as
stated in the first word of her auction title, if she doesn't stop
and relist the auction I am going to notify Ebay.
I think Rick's approach was the right one inasmuch as he gave her
enough rope to save or hang herself. She is clearly choosing the
latter so I can't see how it's ethical not to attempt to stop her
from actively harming a potential collector who is about to get burned.
I know I would appreciate it if someone stepped in,
Patrick

As Greg gathered, my first email was extremely polite, thinking
that the seller would stop the auction. When that didn't occur, I
sent a second email that was a quite a bit more firm, letting the
seller know that she was, in fact, committing a fraudulent act by
listing the poster as "original" and requesting that she stop the
auction immediately. I asked her point blank if she felt right
selling a worthless poster to some unsuspecting buyer for at least
$300 and possibly much more. She has yet to reply to my second email.
