Re: [MOPO] POSTER SALES
You know Irvin, your email has so many incorrect statements I can't hardly point them out, but I'll try first of all, I'm not sure what you mean when you say invited us to join I don't believe I sent you any special invitation to do anything, though I did in 2006 and again in 2007 and again earlier this year advertise that I am open for dealers who wished to get away from fleabay and sell on MPB. Unfortunately, no one wanted to, no matter how much griping they were going to do about fleabay and at some point I decided that having MPB open to sellers I did not know personally may not be the right direction for me to take the site. As such, there is no link to request seller status on MoviePosterBid. I will of course happily look at requests from people on a one-on-one basis But because the fees are so low at MPB, I realized that even if other dealers sell the lofty goal of $1,000,000 in sales.. I only get $35,000, which begged the question do I really want sellers at all? after all, I might have to hire someone to deal with all the problems for dealers buyers which would wipe out any value - if $35,000 was much of a value to begin with - and to have competitors for my own auctions is probably also a negative. Phil Edwards said There is, however, little doubt that MPB is now presented with its greatest opportunity to function as a specialist poster (and comics/pulps etc) site and build its functionality to allow professional and full time dealers to utilize its interface to a fuller advantage and for professional, full time dealers the site is still open, on the one-on-one basis. There are definitely dealers who have no chance of ever listing anything on my website because I may not trust them, because their reputation stinks, or even because I just don't care for them.The Phil Edwards's, Channing Thompsons, Bruce Hershensons, Moe Everetts and Grey Smiths will always be allowed to sell on MoviePosterBid I have a feeling, because of your rude behavior.. that Irvin Gelb will never be allowed to sell But there's more.. You sent me the link to your poster listings at fleabay.. Hey, if you think your prices are some kind of bargains.. then you better start looking at people's results again, and then come to the conclusion that your prices are way over the top for anyone concerning your belief that I am jealous of your sales at Profiles in History... LMMFAO You have to be kidding.. I could care less what you or any other gets for anything. Big effin deal what you got. My question was more along the lines of what could this schmuck have been unhappy about with Profiles that he wants to sell the stuff himself?

Re: [MOPO] POSTER SALES
I have no dog in this race, but I think I can easily address one small part of this. I, and I am sure many others, have seen some of the sky-high results at Profiles in History (last year and others) and have wondered if all of those sales were consummated, and if so, if it was at the listed prices. Given that you were a known consignor of some of those pieces that had reported sky-high results, can you confirm for us that in all cases you received those amounts (less their commissions)? And if so, I think the question on everyone's lips is, why would you then consign anywhere else? And if not, I think the question on everyone's lips is, why don't they set the record straight and reveal what did sell, and at what prices? I am sorry for all the ill feelings this topic has generated, but I would love to know the answer to the above questions, and if they are answered, some good will have come out of it.

Re: [MOPO] POSTER SALES
Hi Bruce, Nice to hear from you. Yes, I did realize the prices that were published and they paid me promptly for everything less a very reasonable/negotiated commission. It was a pleasure to work with them. As a matter of my standard business practice, I like to work with different companies so that I don't put all my eggs in one basket. When I received Richard's invitation to join his auction site I saw it as a potential alternative to Ebay so I attempted to contact him for more information. That's it - very simple. I've purchased from you Bruce with excellent results and would, of course, consider to work with you one day.

Re: [MOPO] POSTER SALES
Hey All, Yes, to make a long story short (and not quite so excruciatingly boring), say you have a URL of www.xyz.com. That means that you're connecting to the computer at xyz.com and then looking in the www folder. So, www.xyz.com is a different location/folder than xyz.com. Most hosts automatically add a redirect from one to the other, so they both lead to the same place. Other hosts do not, so you end up with two different home pages. That's how you end up with a site that appears offline, depending on which version you type in. There are a few poster dealers with sites that do this. It's a simple fix. I believe all it is is adding one line of code to your .htaccess file, telling the server to add or remove any www's of incoming connections. Just google 'www redirect' and I'm sure the fix will come up without too much searching. Dealers should all check your sites, as half you customers might think you're closed.

[MOPO] POSTER SALES
Hi Richard, When you invited us to join your new poster auction site you never responded.

I have more posters in my collection and just wanted to help you out by bringing some high end titles and see how we could do together. I was also going to refer other big collectors to you.
