[MOPO] Profiles in History Morrie Everett auction delivery
I read mopo online so not sure how to post to an existing thread, but yes I got my Profiles package on Monday and I bought post auction. I purchased sight unseen so was very pleased with the condition of what I bought.Dan the Man did an excellent job of describing condition. Somewhere on their site, I remember seeing the prices realized. It might have been on the actual auction software site on the day after the auction. That might not be up anymore.

[MOPO] Question re Priority package rates
Hi, I've been selling exclusively photos lately, but sold a lobby yesterday. Went to the PO this am and larger Priority package rates have gone up again. The medium flat rate box will no longer hold an 11x14 object. The large one will and is 16.85. Regional rate is a little more to NYC. I may try to sneak it thru sandwiched between two med flat rate boxes. I was told by my clerk friend that they would charge me the regional rate if I did that, but if they let it go it would be 12.35. Is there any more economical way to mail lobby cards Priority? First class?

[MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?
A little help? Bought one this weekend which might be authentic and it might be signed by Larry Olivier. The poster is 14x19.75, but the reserve (top?) might be trimmed. Imprime en Belgique in lower left corner. Bruxelles address, phone and text in lower right. Paper on front is kind of semi-glossy, it has a slight sheen. On back browning and not coated. My friend who has many Belgian noir posters thinks it it right. How do you tell?

[MOPO] Question about photos glued in a scrapbook
Hi all, I have a scrapbook of mid 30's photos that are glued at the corners to scrapbook pages of heavyweight, porous black paper. Leslie Howard Scarlet Pimpernal, Noel Coward, Private Lives of Henry VIII, Things to Come, Transatlantic Tunnel, etc. Anyone have any luck getting photos off of such a page. The scrapbook likely dates to the 30's and is probably originally from the UK. Before I acquired the book, it looks like someone was able to get some photos off the pages. There was a dollop of glue in each corner.

Re: [MOPO] Fun MOPO Thread
Hi all, In the SF Bay Area, I remember The Premiere Movie on Channel 2. It showed the same movie on weekend nights and maybe Friday and Monday too. I remember watching the same movie on multiple nights. I especially remember watching Billy Budd several times. We were lucky. In the early 60's the Big Show played every weekday afternoon on Channel 7(?). On 2 days a week I saw just about every 50's sci fi/horror film. There was also a Sword and Sandal Day (Remember the Sons of Hercules). Then we had Dialing For Dollars on Channel 2 at 1 during the week. I swear I saw both Shock Corridor and Naked Kiss there. Last but certainly not least Gil Hile's All Night Movies. I saw everything from Max Ophuls' Letter to an Unknown Woman to John Derek football movies. Sigh, Michael, Cinecityposters P.S.

Re: [MOPO] off topic: I'm selling my Nikon N90s
Hi Kirby, Thanks, but your memory is faulty. I rescued your camera at that little hotel in Beverly Hills where we stayed for the Gunnar Nelson Butterfield's auction. You were lucky to have a quiet room in the back. In mine up front, I could hear everything at the front desk and I had a little TV mounted to the top of the wall like in a jail. I remember watching the X-Files episode in which Mulder and Scully search for a lake monster. I came away with 2 minor lots. Hope you did better than I did!

Re: [MOPO] Tracking an insured Priority package
PJ, There must be some tracking capability. How else would they know to pay off on the insurance if someone claims that an insured package wasn't delivered. They might charge you a fee to do it, but there must be some way. My policy is to self insure all packages under $50 and send with DC. I guess I'm going to have to use DC for all packages now. Maybe I'm being too suspicious, but the buyer didn't report the possible non-delivery until over a month after I mailed and informed him. He didn't even say that it hadn't been delivered. He said he thought that it hadn't arrived. He wasn't sure? I think/hope he is legit but his ebay id is hollyworld.

Hi again, How does this work? Do I have to file a non-paying bidders complaint against the original winner before making the 2nd chance offer? Do I set the price of the 2nd chance offer or must it be the amount that would have been the highest bid if the original winner had not bid? This item was bid up significantly by the last 2 bidders.

[MOPO] Ebay fee question
Hi, Has anyone else had any problems with higher ebay fees in the last 2 weeks? I post my auctions using Andale and for the past 2 weekends, auctions starting below 10 cost .75 instead of .40 and those starting 10-25 cost .95 instead of .60. I'm wondering if that is because of the free gallery promotion that ebay is having. I also noticed a charge of .35 when I made a normally free revision to an ebay auction until I went back and removed the gallery selection. Or did I miss a new round of ebay increases?

Re: [MOPO] 99 Cent Opening Bids--- A Help or a Hinderance?
Hi MOPO, It would be a mistake to say that the value of a poster is what is sells for at ebay auctions. There are still multiple markets for posters. I have sold items in my ebay store that went begging for less in my ebay auctions. There are many occasional ebay buyers who don't follow ebay that closely, but do logon from time to time to make a purchase. Recently, I sold items at a show for more than I had asked at ebay auction. Sometimes the right buyer just comes along. Ask dealers like Kirby who does a thriving off-ebay business. Bruce operates under a unique business model. He can offer everything for .99 because 1. Most of his auctions are consignments. He takes no risk. In fact, it's better for him that an item sell cheap than not at all. 2. He generates so much more traffic than anyone else. 3. Because of his volume of sales, the items that sell low are more than made up for by the items that high.

[MOPO] Ebay Second Chance Offer
Hi, I have a occasional repeat bidder who is inexplicably not paying for her last 2 items. If I make a second chance offer to the underbidder, must I file non-paying bidder complaint on the winning bidder? Since she is a repeat bidder, I don't really want to do that, but I don't really want to pay the fees either, if she is defaulting. Can I make a 2nd chance offer and still hold the winning bidder responsible if the underbidder declines. Anyone have any experience with second chance offers? tia Michael, Cinecityposters btw The amount of money involved is relatively small, $40. /HTML Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.

Ira Stirring Up the Cubicles at eBay – The New York Times?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office / By http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/s/brad_stone/index.html?inline=nyt-perBRAD STONE SAN JOSE, Calif.  By the end of February, most of the employees at http://www.nytimes.com/mem/MWredirect.html?MW=http://custom.marketwatch.com/custom/nyt-com/html-companyprofile.aspsymb=EBAYeBay’s San Jose headquarters will collect their possessions, wave a final goodbye to their landline telephones and change cubicles. But what John Donahoe, president of one of eBay’s most important divisions, really wants is for his colleagues to change the way they work. “I’m a big fan of breaking patterns,” he said. Mr. Donahoe, 46, is a deputy to eBay’s chief executive, Meg Whitman, 50, and, many people in the industry say, her likely successor when she ultimately steps down. In his two years as head of eBay Marketplaces  a division responsible for 70 percent of the company’s revenues and an even greater percentage of its profits  he has set out to change the company’s colors substantially. Mr. Donahoe has led the acquisition of companies like the ticket exchange StubHub, helping eBay morph from a single auction-oriented marketplace into a portfolio of retail sites. This year, revenue-sharing deals brokered by Mr. Donahoe with http://www.nytimes.com/mem/MWredirect.html?MW=http://custom.marketwatch.com/custom/nyt-com/html-companyprofile.aspsymb=YHOOYahoo and http://www.nytimes.com/mem/MWredirect.html?MW=http://custom.marketwatch.com/custom/nyt-com/html-companyprofile.aspsymb=GOOGGoogle will bring online advertisements to the auction site on a large scale for the first time. His newest move, the cubicle swap, is intended to bring together the engineers and the businesspeople who work on specific projects, while weaning employees off their landline telephones and getting them to use the Internet calling service Skype, which eBay acquired for $2.6 billion in 2005. Whether or not these initiatives work may determine whether eBay can build on a healthy holiday season and combat competitive threats like Google’s recent inroads into e-commerce. “All our businesses need to do well, but John’s success and the success of Marketplaces is absolutely essential to the company,” said Ms. Whitman, who met Mr. Donahoe when they were consultants working in the ?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags /San Francisco office of Bain Company in the early 1980s. Mr. Donahoe joined eBay at the end of 2004 from Bain, where he had risen through the ranks over two decades to become its chief executive. At 6 feet 5 inches, he towers over colleagues while wooing them with a friendly, accessible demeanor. Thomas Tierney, an eBay director who is also a Bain alumnus, said Mr. Donahoe had “an uncanny ability to connect with everyone from receptionists to chief executives.” Mr. Donahoe, the father of four, is known at eBay for his boundless energy, waking every morning at 4:30 a.m., often appearing in the eBay gym before 7 and working 70-hour weeks. But he will need more than energy to reinflate eBay’s stagnant stock price. Despite a recent boost
[MOPO] MOPO] Limits of insurance, reissues, back button on ebay
Hi MOPO, A few miscellaneous questions: 1. I mail priority with delivery confirmation and self insure cheaper packages. Does insurance cover a package from the po to the recipient's address only? After the package is delivered to the specified address and so confirmed by the po, do I have any more responsibility? 2. Does anyone know the years of release of the recent reissues of Peeping Tom and Plan 9 from Outer Space? 3. Has anyone noticed that when you have searched for a list of items on ebay, click on one of the ads and then click further on that ad (say to look at an image or see the bidders), you can't use the back button to get back to the original list?

Hi MOPO, Just picked up a rolled Taxi Driver insert at a local flea market. As I recall, this is one of the questionable titles, but this one is showing some wear and the seller had about 20 inserts from 1976 titles. The only other one I thought worth buying was an Outlaw Josey Wales, also rolled. Other titles were One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Godfather 2. My question is about the coloring on the Taxi Driver. There seems to be a bit of fading at the bottom right, but the blue backround is lighter at the bottom in the credits area than in the upper Boulevard of Broken Dreams image of DeNiro. All printing is in black except that the On every street in every city in this country... text is in medium yellow.

Hi, Resending this because I forgot to change the original subject line and then when I did mopo rejected it because the text was the same. Go figure? I'm going to Denver and Colorado Springs on business next month. Are there any movie memorabilia dealers, antique shows, flea markets worth checking out in Colorado. I'll be there the week of June 19 and could come in the previous weekend or stay over the following one.

[MOPO] James Bond Tomorrow Never Dies Bollinger Champagne poster
Where are all you Bond experts? Help! Hi, I picked up this poster from a box of obvious repros along with one real one-sheet. I have no idea if it's right or not. It pictures Brosnan with his Beretta pointed up flanked by a champagne bottle and flute. What is the correct size of this poster? This one is roughly 23.5x31 and printed on heavy stock. Were their any reproductions of it?

[MOPO] Fwd: [MOPO] Off Topic -- New Movie Actors and Actresses
Hey Channing, You never return my calls :) In answer to your question, I want to mention Jena Malone, who isn't big yet, but starred in 2004's teen religion comedy Saved! and might be familiar to you as the barge pilot in Cold Mountain and as one of the March sisters in last year's Pride and Prejudice . I rist became aware of her as the near starving daughter of an unemployed Beau Bridges in Hidden in America. She broke your heart. She also played Bone in Bastard Out of Carolina and the daughter in Stepmom and the co-conspirator in Donnie Darko. She has appeared with such heavyweights as Jodie Foster, Susan Sarandon and Ed Harris and more than held her own. She is an unusually intuitive and sensitive actor for her age.

I was watching JERRY MAGUIRE on cable and remembered how great and refreshing it was to see a new actress on the screen when it first came out. Renee Zellwegger was smart, pretty, sweet, and and a brand new face on the Hollywood scene. She held her own with Tom Cruise and really made the movie work in ways that another more familiar actress wouldn't have been able to achieve. This is one of the few times when a new personality came along recently that really lit up the screen. For those of you who yawn at the thought of another vehicle with Ben Affleck or Tom Cruise or Charlize Theron or Julia Roberts or Cameron Diaz -- can you think of other times when a new face has come along and really improved a film or the movie industry in general -- out of the blue?

[MOPO] MOPO Re: Paypal problem
Hi all, As a reluctant seller using paypal, I ask my customers to logon directly to paypal and to enter my id. I don't allow them to pay directly from ebay, as I want them to wait for my own billing and don't want ebay's hooks in my business any more than necessary. Recently, I had 2 reports of problems doing the above after an uneventful year of accepting paypal payments. One had to pay separately for the item and the mailing fee. Today a buyer of three items, had to pay separately for each item and again for the mailing fee. I believe that the problem stems from identifying the payment as an ebay sale. If they Identify it as a non-ebay sale, I think they can make one lump sum payment. Can anyone shed any light on this problem?

Hi all, What is the current status of bidpay? An English customer just asked me if I took it. I was under the impression it was kaput. On another note, did all you haters of Hostel have any objections to History of Violence, which I saw last weekend which I thoroughly enjoyed. Not as dark as Spider or Existenz, but with some Cronenberg touches. A heartfelt, steamy performance by Maria Bello and a clever turn by almost unrecognizable William Hurt.

Hi again, My very first posters were a Casablanca R49 lobby set and an Enforcer os that my sister bought me around 1970 from Cinemabilia? when she moved to New York to pursue a dance career. I gave one of the cards to my best friend in college (with whom I was having a contest to see who could see the most Bogart films). Still have all the rest of the cards.

Re: [MOPO] Karloff film festival at Film Forum In New York City
Hi all, For you Karloff fans, no South of the Border lobbies, but I do have vintage 8x10 bw British stills from 5 of the titles showing at the Film Forum: Bride of Frankenstein, The Raven, The Black Cat, The Old Dark House and The Lost Patrol. Wish I was in NYC for these screenings. Aside from a noir festival in San Francisco, which was too far and too hard to park for me more than once, pickin's been slim here in the cities by the bay. I've been attending the Weird America documentary series at Pacific Film Archive. Last week Derailroaded about Wild Man Fischer and his adventures with Zappa and Danger Will Robinson.

Re: [MOPO] vinyl poster pockets
Hi, I've had some experience with posters left on boards inside os sized bags. The Cinema Shop in SF used to have stacks of them lined up against their walls, so many that you couldn't reach the back ones when standing at the front of a stack. I assume that those posters had been in the bags since time immemorial. Channing can confirm all this. Over the years, I did buy some of those posters and never noticed any problem with the posters inside, although the bags were cloudy with dust on the outside. After going thru the stacks, your hands were filthy! I also once bought a Some Like It Hot os home-packaged in some sort of clear plastic covering. After a few years the covering yellowed, but the poster inside was still clean and bright. Unfortunately, I thought the yellowing was on the poster and let it go too cheap, but then I had just picked up a stone mint copy and the one that went had some dart holes in it.

[MOPO] Fwd: Pluto Si, Kong No
Hi all, For those of you jaded by the holidays and King Kong, you might try to see Neil Jordan's Breakfast on Pluto. It mines some of the same territory as The Crying Game, but also brought to mind Velvet Goldmine. It's set in Ireland the year of Last Tango in Paris and features a lot of romantic Brit pop music from that era: Van Morrison, Dusty Springfield, Harry Nilsson and wonderful star turns from Jordan regulars Stephen Rea, Liam Neeson and Brendan Gleason. Brian Ferry and Ian Hart are in there somewhere too. If a film with transsexuals, pop music and IRA bombings is to your taste, then go Breakfast should be your cup of tea.

Hi MOPO, My sister made a movie (Bustin' Loose) with Richard Pryor and after he hit on her and was turned down, they became friends.

For years he used to call her at Christmas and leave funny messages on her machine. Somewhere I have an autograph inscribe to me from him. He was a personal favorite of mine and probably my all time favorite comedian. First Warren Zevon and now Richard Pryor. Sigh.

Hi MOPO, Technically speaking, I believe foxing refers only to spotting on paper.
