[MOPO] The Amazing Transparent Auctioneer Strikes Back

2009-08-24 Thread James Richard

OK... now let me get this straight:

1) Everyone hates E/flea/bay for about a hundred very good reasons, so 
obviously not one of us would ever want to list or buy there again.


2) Bruce does too good a job pushing his auctions on us and gets too 
much money for posters except when he doesn't get enough money for them. 
And he's printed way too many poster books in his life and has to do 
*something* with them, but does that mean all of us should have to 
suffer for his enthusiasm? And to top off this effrontery, Bruce just 
now somehow managed to get someone to pay $780 for an international 
1-sheet for VIEW TO A KILL (I know... I know... almost $800 American 
Dollars for an '80s Roger Moore Bond film poster...):


http://auctions.emovieposter.com/Bidding.taf?_function=detailAuction_uid1=1514641

3) But, wait... even though Rich doesn't do any of the above stuff, he's 
still a feelthy dealer and likes to crack wise and so naturally he is 
attempting to exploit Bruce's success by currently offering a complete 
set of lobby cards from VIEW TO A KILL at auction. Let's see... you cut 
a one sheet into 8 pieces, divide by Bruce's auction result...


Hey! That means that Rich's eight lobby cards are worth $97.50 each! The 
current bid for the whole darn set is only $6.55 right now! So what are 
you people waiting for? Clearly the depressed Buy of the Recession:

This is just basic MOPO math, folks. I don't see why everyone is getting 
all hot and bothered about it.

Re: [MOPO] www.moviepostershop.com

2009-08-24 Thread dsonesheets
Good morning,

I was wondering if anyone knew who runs this site: www.moviepostershop.com.
I have sent a couple emails through their contact form on the site now, and
have yet to hear a single response.  I'm afraid that a third will just
continue to go unnoticed.  Simply trying to find out if some posters are
single- or double-sided.  I suspect that they are simply 27x40 reprints,
single-sided, similar to what moviegoods.com does, but would like to know
for sure.

Thing is, if they're real DS originals, I'm going to buy a lot from them.
You'd think that with this economy, they would be eager to return inquiries.


Thanks for any information anyone can forward along.

Best regards,

Steve Zammar

[MOPO] OT: Graphic film clip spreads virally from the U.K.

2009-08-24 Thread David Kusumoto

In the U.K., a graphic film clip depicting the ravages of using cell phones in 
cars has spread virally on the Internet. Turns out the four-minute sequence is 
part of a larger 30-minute movie drama -- produced and directed by Peter 
Watkins-Hughes -- who got his own students from the Newport School of Art, 
Media and Design in Wales -- to work on the picture, serving as technical crews 
and talent -- in cooperation with the Gwent Police Department, about 150 miles 
west of London. 

 

A longer-version of this drama will be shown at schools this year, with 
negotiations going on with the BBC to have the film, presently entitled COW 
(named after a road), to be broadcast later this year throughout the U.K.  The 
graphic video clip is professionally staged -- but appears very realistic and 
does a fine job hammering its message home.  In my view, it should be seen by 
every parent -- and imported/licensed for broadcast or school use throughout 
the U.S.

all you need for proof of that are 3 passenger train collisions in

I once saw a guy driving a car next to me holding a cell phone 
between his ear and left shoulder, while he was holding a milkshake

[MOPO] FA: 221 Items, Hitchcock, Monsters, Finland and more

2009-08-24 Thread Sean Linkenback
They started a little late tonight because of a computer glitch, but I just
got finished listing 221 items on eBay, including an amazing selection of
rarely seen posters from Finland - most of these have totally different
artwork than their US counterparts, and in some cases they are vastly
superior (like the fantastic IT! Terror From Outer Space poster).  We have
Creature From The Black Lagoon, as well as Revenge, some Hitchcock titles,
the 60s Batman film, Nude Vampire, and lots of other cool pieces to check
out.

 

Naturally we also have our regular assortment of US Lobbies  Posters
highlighted by an unrestored insert from Forbidden Planet and a tough
one-sheet from the Ed Wood classic (?) Orgy of the Dead among some other
great exploitation and monster offerings.

 

Of course I hope that you will take a look at everything I have up this week
by going here: http://shop.ebay.com/platinumposters/m.html

He had the nerve to say I was faking.  I was at  a complete stop.  I could see

Re: [MOPO] Are poster prices depressed?

2009-08-24 Thread Helmut Hamm

Rich,

I mean no offense, but as an international customer you charge me a  
minimum of $19 for shipping. I remember one package I received from  
you with two or three posters,

shipped First Class Mail International, at postage costs of under $12.

Now even with packing materials, handling costs and whatever, I can't  
see that you lost any money here.


Of course, you're no exception, last week I received a rolled window  
card from an eBay seller, postage costs were $3.85 for First Class  
Mail, seller's 'international flatrate'  was $15.99.


Would anybody dare to ask over $12 extra for domestic customers? I  
don't think so.


Frankly, since I'm buying a lot of stuff on eBay, it adds up  
considerably and sometimes I feel like a cash cow here.


Helmut

I'll be replying to another post in this string, but Bruce is  
right. the costs of shipping have approximately doubled from A-Z


cardboard is almost double what it was 2 years ago
plastic bags are almost double
plastic tape (the 2 inch tape) is more than double (in 2007 a 6  
pack was $5.99 , yesterday it was $14.99)

Avery labels are more than double
(for those wanting the math: 2 12x14 sheets of cardbaord = 56c,  
labels are $40 per 200, 11x14 bags are $175 per 1000 shipped)
(so 1 package has approx 94 cents in supplies alone not including  
tape, flyers. If I have to use my own box instead of a Priority  
box, add $1.50)


and those are costs before we even ship it out
the biggest increases are (for me) shipping East of the  
Mississippi. as a matter of fact, I need to create a new shipping  
schedule as it costs me way less to ship to California and Arizona  
than it does to West Virginia
Non-US shipping went up last year and this year and and it is at  
least double what it was in 2007


the bottom line? for Non-US customers, bidding has dropped  
precipitously which reduces competition!
One new buyer in January in a lobby card sets auction bought 14  
lbs of lobby cards.
shipping to Australia was $90. the material cost $360 and many were  
bargains as always, but the buyer - who fully understood that the  
shipping costs were real - has never come back.


Even worse, any package 4lbs or over going overseas must ship by  
Priority Mail, which makes it incredibly costly
I sold a copy of the Reynold Brown book to a customer in the UK.  
the book was $40. shipping of this heavy 4lb'er ws $35


shipping used to actually work in this formula: $7.00 fee to buyers  
(domestic shipping). Cost used to leave maybe $1-2 that went toward  
paying help to make packages. Now with my basic $9.00 cost, we only  
have a $1-2 surplus for customers in a few western states near me  
in Nevada and when shipping to NYC for instance, we lose money  
(actually, any state west of Kansas is a loser for us)


so now, the costs of the employee, tape, cardboard etc are fully  
borne by my bottom line and when you sell stuff under $5-10, it is  
an economic loser if the orders don't get above $40-50 or so


I've been doing mail order business for 30+ years and honestly, the  
climbing costs are absolutely taking money out of my personal  
income, which should never be happening.


but it's going to get worse! a new increase in already in the  
pipeline and to make things even worse than that, in my case, the  
business post office near the Strip (which is 1 block away) is  
slated to be closed in the massive postal closures planned to save  
money and now we'll have to drive 15-20 minutes just to drop off  
packages and to stand in line for Non-US shipping there, and my  
advertised mailing address of the last 17 years is going to  
disappear (my POBox is at that post office)


so I'll have no choice but to raise my shipping rates to get back  
to even and to pay for more gasoline and the 30 minutes or more  
for Anna to drive there  back.


if only the Starship Enterprise had left their transporter units in  
my warehouse.

Great analysis, Evan. I completely agree that the cost of  
selling is an important consideration in looking at results. If  
you consign an item and it sells for $15, but you received 85  
cents for it, then did you sell it for $15, or for 85 cents?


One factor not mentioned to this point is the HUGE postal price  
increases the past few years, especially on international shipments.


There are many items that auction for $2 because the shipping cost  
to the person who loves it is $20 or $30 or $40, so they can't  
justify bidding $3, even though they would gladly pay $10 for the  
item, but they can't because of the cost of shipping to them.

You might get a few folks right now who will bid up that Gran Torino

those same posters will be offered by Bruce again and this time they
won't sell for more than $2.98.  Anyone want to buy a Shakespeare In

Subject: Re: [MOPO] I think many of us here have been collecting the

Bruce,

I think your subject says it all: There are now several generations of
younger movie poster collectors to whom vintage means the late 1980's.
A 22-year old buying the 2008 poster for GRAN TORINO today would not
have even been born yet in 1986. I think some of the prices you showed
us are absolutely astounding for such recent issues.

I mean, a 2008 GRAN TORINO going for $78.00? Huh? This poster was issued
*last year* fer cryin' out loud and they must have printed up hundreds
of thousands of them for the U.S. market alone. This is an extreme
example, being only a year old, but there were others on your list, some
of them less than 6 years old... many less than 12 which went for well
over $100... some over $200. Honestly, I don't get it, since anyone
could have/can buy as many of these as the want brand new mint when they
first come out for $19 to $29 bucks (a lot less if they have a
wholesaler connection in the film distribution business).

Here's what I don't understand: There must be poster sellers out there
who were able to purchase bulk lots of these posters when the film is
first released. They must have store rooms with palettes of these 1 to
15 year old posters. So how can they be so valuable? I mean, yeah,
people liked the film and want to have a poster of it on the wall, same
as always... but you can still buy most of these posters at places like
www.moviegoods.com -- that exact same Gran Tornio is available there
right now for $29 bucks:

http://www.moviegoods.com/movie_product_static.asp?master_movie_id=39936
http://www.moviegoods.com/movie_product_static.asp?master_movie_id=3993
6sku=435705 sku=435705

What, someone says yeah, but that's not an original theatrical
release? How can you tell? How can anyone? They are printed from the
same plates on the same stock by the same printing operation that
printed the theatrical release. Maybe the person who buys it from
moviegoods knows it is not a theatrical release right now, but in 10
years after the poster from moviegoods has changed hands a couple of
times, who will be able to tell if it was purchased new the day the film
was released or new from moviegoods.com one or two years later?

Am I missing something here? Is there a way to tell the $29 poster from
moviegoods from one which was printed up specifically to be used in a
theater (but probably never saw the inside of theater's lightbox)? If
not, why are people paying so much money for these recent posters? Or is
$100 to $200 not much money for this younger generation of collectors?

[MOPO] packaging----REPACKAGED MATERIALS

2009-08-24 Thread Michael B
ever feel insulted when your flat poster or lobby card arrives in dirty,  
food-stained or grease-stained, old, bent cardboard?
 
especially with sellers charging high shipping costs... 
 
i just saw this of a (non-poster) listing:  
 
All items are packaged  in recycled materials where possible.

 
as i said yesterday in discussions about packaging material  
costs...soon you will see your 250 insert arrive with staples at the edges, 
 a couple

Re: [MOPO] packaging----REPACKAGED MATERIALS

2009-08-24 Thread MotionPictureArt.com
Hi Michael,
Not everyone uses dirty, smelly, stained or greased packaging materials. It is 
actually foolish to do so.
We sometimes recycle packaging materials, but only if they are in a like-new 
state and are in no way able to damage the product.
The main difference is that we never charge our customers for new or recycled 
packaging materials and handling. We only charge the actual shipping cost.
But I understand what you mean, I've also had many bad experiences when it 
comes down to shipping, packing etc.
Recently someone shipped me a poster in a tube of which he stapled the end caps 
to secure them.
The staples however did not bend and because of shifting one side of the poster 
looked like it was nibbled on by rats.
But on the other hand I was able to buy some very nice posters from Bruce last 
night, so I'm still happy.
Ron

I mean a lot. I did it, so did most others who were around back  
then. Ebay finally started actively campaigning against off-site  
transactions in 2000 and by 2003 had made it much more difficult for  
bidders and buyers to get together outside of the Ebay system. But  
you can still do it today: All you have to do is send the seller a  
question using the Ebay mail system -- and don't check the hide my  
address from the seller box -- and indicate in the message that you  
want to talk about something and  that the seller is welcome to  
reply to you personally. If seller is so inclined he will get what  
you mean and send you a reply to your private address with his  
private address and then you reply to him -- viola, you're both  
doing business off the Ebay site.

I USED to think having a dotcom user ID (emovieposter.com) meant

time before they take those away too.

Did you notice, that at some point eBay has made it completely  
impossible to contact a seller directly after you won an item? No  
more seller's email address, and even retracking
contact data from eBay will give you the address and (sometimes) a  
phone number, but no email contact.

Nowadays, Big Brother eBay wants to monitor ANYTHING.

Maybe it's just me, but I find this extremely annoying.

all you need for proof of that are 3 passenger train collisions in the past year

I once saw a guy driving a car next to me holding a cell phone between his ear

I'll bet he could drive better than someone who is texting

I very much support the notion of using recycled materials whenever  
possible. I see no harm whatever in saving  money on package materials

few years ago I had small deal with a Lady from Australia. She wanted one of my
posters and offered another one, Polish poster, as trade. It was good for me,
nice poster which i really wanted arrived to me, packaged as i suggested with
some soft packaging material around the wrapped poster to avoid movements
inside the tube  and I got it wrapped in paper and tube was filled with these
small foam peanut shape fillers but they were greasy the paper around
the paper was greasy and the peanut shape foam fillers were actually peanut
shape CORN CHIPS...  at the first look they looked like these packaging fillers
but i realized very fast that they were actual corn chips. Never tried
them, they smelled like outdated chips..

Re: [MOPO] Are poster prices depressed?

2009-08-24 Thread Jeff Potokar
Thanks for clarifying this, Helmut,  as it is oh so true. many  
sellers charge so much more than the actual shipping cost.


as an example: we have all ordered items on line, from private  
sellers-- and have been charged, let's say, 20.00, for postage.


the only problem is, when the package arrives -- the printed USPS  
label with the ACTUAL cost  (example: 8.75) to mail is staring us in  
the face.


 an additional 11.25 of pure profit? for what?  (and i'm not talking  
the cost of materials--JUST the mailing cost).







On Aug 24, 2009, at 4:57 AM, Helmut Hamm wrote:

I mean no offense, but as an international customer you charge me a  
minimum of $19 for shipping. I remember one package I received from  
you with two or three posters,

shipped First Class Mail International, at postage costs of under $12.

Now even with packing materials, handling costs and whatever, I  
can't see that you lost any money here.

Re: [MOPO] packaging----REPACKAGED MATERIALS

2009-08-24 Thread James Richard
Everyone seems to be so reactionary these days... is it just the hot 
summer weather, the recession or what? Sure, every once in a while you 
run across someone who is making an unacceptable profit on the 
handling side of the shipping and handling charge, or packaging 
really badly, but it is hardly all that prevalent. In fact, one of the 
few things Ebay does that is a good policy is allow you to report any 
auction where the shipping charge is way too high -- you don't even have 
to have placed a bid on the item.


Besides, who buys something without nailing down the shipping charge 
first? I don't. If the auction/retail offer doesn't specifically state 
the shipping cost, then I *ask* the seller *before* I buy. If the 
shipping cost is what I consider way too high I simply won't buy from 
that seller because I figure any seller trying to rip me on shipping 
costs is likely to rip me on the product itself, usually by describing 
it as far better than it is.


But people who don't sell a lot of stuff online often don't realize that 
a reasonable handling charge is a very valid part of the total 
shipping cost. It takes time to package something -- and some money 
unless you're going all-recycled all the way, which isn't always 
practical -- and then more time to create the labels and get it to the 
Post Office/freight terminal. Time is money. Since minimum wage is $7.00 
an hour in my state, if I only make $2.00 on a handling charge and it 
takes me 20 minutes per package from start to finish (including getting 
it to the Post Office), then I'm not even making minimum wage for my 
time. Now, if I were getting a premium price for the item, then I might 
be willing to absorb the $2 bucks as the cost of doing business but 
with today's scavenger hunt mentality among most buyers, I figure I 
should be paid at least minimum wage for my time.

Re: [MOPO] OT: Graphic film clip spreads virally from the U.K.

2009-08-24 Thread Andrea Kanter

Hi Joe,

Where I live, people in rotten cars do that all the time so they can  
sue.  It's practically a way of life for them.  While you're driving,  
you have to look out not to drive behind those types because they'll  
jam on their brakes to get you to slam into them!  So we have texters,  
who should be ticketed imo, and evil drivers who just want anyone to  
sue for free bucks (for all those who do that on purpose, may their  
neck/back/whatever never stop throbbing) and road ragers who are just  
p.o.s.'s who should never have been born to begin with.


Andrea, who just returned from a road trip, btw.

Re: [MOPO] Are poster prices depressed?

2009-08-24 Thread Bruce Hershenson
I defy anyone (even the members of the BHHC) to find anytime WE charge more
than the actual shipping, plus $2 for packaging materials. In fact, whenever
this does happen, we refund the difference back to the buyer, even if it is
just a couple of dollars!

 Thanks for clarifying this, Helmut,  as it is oh so true. many sellers
 charge so much more than the actual shipping cost.
 as an example: we have all ordered items on line, from private sellers--
 and have been charged, let's say, 20.00, for postage.
 the only problem is, when the package arrives -- the printed USPS label
 with the ACTUAL cost  (example: 8.75) to mail is staring us in the face.

  an additional 11.25 of pure profit? for what?  (and i'm not talking the
 cost of materials--JUST the mailing cost).

  I mean no offense, but as an international customer you charge me a
 minimum of $19 for shipping. I remember one package I received from you with
 two or three posters,
 shipped First Class Mail International, at postage costs of under $12.

 Now even with packing materials, handling costs and whatever, I can't see
 that you lost any money here.

Re: [MOPO] packaging----REPACKAGED MATERIALS

2009-08-24 Thread Bruce Hershenson
We never recycle in the conventional sense, but we pre-recycle. We use
such great packing materials that those who receive them are able to re-send
them to others. I would bet that people like Rich Halegua and Marty Davis
(who order from us regularly) are able to mostly only re-use our packaging,
thus saving them lots of money and saving lots of trees as well.

[MOPO] packaging----REPACKAGED MATERIALS

2009-08-24 Thread David Lieberman
 
 
We recycle if the packaging is good enough.
 
All cardboard received we re use. We even re use a lot of the  cushioning 
material. No cheetos though.
 
If a tube we receive is strong enough (if we can stand on it without  it 
buckling), we will re use it.
 
We actually like to use tubes that have been beat up (if they are  strong 
enough) because my theory is that if a package looks crappy on the  outside 
people will leave it alone and not mess with it. No one would  think a 
$1000.00 poster is in a tube that looks like hell!!

i have to ask, when looking at this poster... what am i missing, in terms of 
its $15K price tag?

Is it exceedingly rare? even the photography and layout only look marginal, IMO.

Waste Not, Want Not - RECYCLE
