When shipping a bunch of poster I always make an inventory and send along a copy of the inventory as well. So when Grey or Bruce compares the list and there is a discrepancy there is at least a record. What would have happened if the parcel was lost in the mail, then try to stake a claim with the insurance? >> >>The X-files said it best –  ˜Trust no one.â€� >> >> >> >>From: MoPo List [mailto:mopo-l@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU] On Behalf Of Richard Halegua Posters + Comic Art >>Sent: Monday, June 04, 2012 3:31 PM >>To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU >>Subject: Re: [MOPO] Rudy Franchi, Heritage, no Inventory >> >>Geraldine >> >>reading your posts as a outsider makes me wonder about some of the things you mention in your emails. >>Are you trying to get a resolution, or are you just trying to disparage Rudy Franchi and Heritage? >>Also, do you or do you not think that your own actions are a partial contributor to your angst?? >> >>Don't get me wrong.. I'm not attempting to disparage or attack you. I understand you have a dispute, it was not to date settled in your favor and that makes you angry. >> >>But some thing that you wrote puzzles me. Your own lack of an inventory specifically. >> >>2 weeks ago, I consigned a large collection of my own to Profiles in History for their July auction. I have a book collection or hardcover Photoplay editions in dust jackets dating from 1913 to the 1940s with additional items up to the 1990s. >> >>I have known Joe Maddalena for a reasonably long time and we have done deals on both a personal level and via his auction house. However, regardless of my relationship with Joe, when I consigned this collection to them of 800 books and related items, there is no way I would have let these items leave my possession without an inventory. >> >>For 2 weeks prior to them leaving my warehouse, I photographed each and every item in this collection. Yes it was done in part so I could have file images of these items for my image archive, but it was also done so that in case of any disputes, I could prove to Profiles what I gave them. This is not for the protection of myself and for the protection of Profiles. How could I dispute any issues without having such an inventory in my hands?? >> >>Did I do this time consuming job for my own pleasure?? >>No Ma'am >>I had plenty of other work to do, and such a task only added to my weekly work schedule right at a time when I was actually busier than I had been in months, and anyone who knows me knows that my work schedule is always completely full and that I haven't been having lots of playtime in my wonderful city of Las Vegas. It actually left me with just one day to get ready for Cinevent, and that one day wasn't nearly enough. >> >>Joe may be my good friend and I trust him 100%, but I do not leave it up to other people to protect my own interests, as much as I would like to when I don't have any time. If I leave it up to someone else to protect my interests, I really don't feel I can blame the other party no matter how many assurances I have that I can. Furthermore, if such a situation were to land me in a lawsuit attempting to claim some sort of duress, what portion of such duress is my own fault for not protecting myself?? >> >>I do remember the days when a handshake deal was a bond, but I have also felt the betrayal of a handshake deal not being honored, making me wish I had done what was necessary to protect myself before any issues arose. Not completing such an action is no one's fault but my own. >> >>So the question becomes, "IF" your claims are true, what responsibility do you think you have in not having done what was necessary to protect yourself? Do you think this was a failure on your behalf, or do you think that you have any responsibility at all? >> >>If you were to sue Heritage, what proof would you use to prove your case? Admittedly, you made no inventory, Charlie is 82 and you are also at an age where things become less clear to the mind - through no fault of your own.. It just happens as people get older. It will happen to me as well probably. >> >>I have thought at times that something is missing and believed I had given it to someone, only to later find said item in my inventory, generally somewhere that it doesn't belong, at which point I was forced to apologize to that person who I thought screwed me. >> >>You did not do what was necessary to protect yourself, how can that be the fault of Heritage? >> >>Rich >> >> >>At 06:15 AM 6/4/2012, Geraldine Kudaka wrote: >> >>Rudy, this list is not just for dealers. >> >>There are a lot of people who lurk here who are interested in movie posters. They are not professional dealers in the business. Some may be non-poster business people interested in selling off collections acquired from either a lifetime of working in the industry, or inherited them from dad, who passed on. >> >>This is also a public list which non-subscribers go to for archived information on how to sell their posters.. >> >>As a noted movie poster expert, these uninformed sellers need to know that you will encourage them to send their collections "post vite" to Heritage. >> >>You will not tell them that they need to protect themselves by doing a photographic inventory and log of their posters before sending to Heritage. >> >>You will not warn them that Heritage's inventory process is suspect and their software probably some home-user Access-like database program. (Here, I'm referring to security differences between programs like Quicken and true business accounting software which do not allow you to change entries without leaving a trail.) >> >>You will not tell them that heritage will not return posters they do not sell. >> >>You will simply funnel them to Heritage -- for your commission. >> >>For this reason - among others - an esteemed seller on this list posted a wish that you were dead... >> >>Need I remind you I defended you? This was before I sat down and went though our Heritage file and discovered what was really going on. This was before I went online and found that Heritage has been accused by others for stealing items submitted for consignment. >> >>Last -- if you think you have spent "a huge amount of time" on this issue, get real. Suggesting we comply with Heritage's offer of selling without commission fees is certainly not an email that takes a lot of time to write. After Grey threatened us with legal action, we have spent far more money on attorney's fees than you have... That's a hard financial cost on top of the value of posters sent to Heritage. >> >>While I appreciate your suggestion we go bankrupt "sueing everybody involved", I will decline your advice. >> >>In the start, I said this list is not just for dealers.
