Re: Photographing Dolls

2018-10-04 Thread ann sanfedele
another suggestion -since you are going for ebay -- you might want to do 
BIN or best offer instead of auctionformat..


You will still want to note size as part of the item specifics for the 
well known ones because there is always concernabout authenticity , even 
with this kind of thing


Ive got both auction and BINS/BO and most all of my sales over the last 
year have been best offers on fixed price...


ThIngs have changed a lot recently on ebay..mainly in terms of 
tightening up stuff but some of the changes are really annoying.


Good luck with em!

Ann - thanks for the suggestions. I've added a rear view. I used the grey background 
because it is what I have - I don't really have anyplace else without a lot of clutter 
behind the doll. Perhaps the darker gray flip side of the backdrop would work better (I 
have a darker grey drape for the Workmate as well). I don't think I need anything for 
scale for the "Brides of America" dolls as they are a well-known series, and 
the height will go in the listing anyway. There are several other dolls that are less 
well known and for those I think you are right and there should be something to show 
scale. I expect to take some more test shots before I am satisfied, but once I get the 
formula shooting the rest of the dolls should go quickly.

You mentioned condition, and these are excellent. They are single-owner and 
have lived in a closed display case for all of their lives out of the sunlight. 
I know that Mom kept the original boxes, packaging, certificates of 
authenticity and so on, but finding where in the house she stored them will be 
a chore. Both of my parents were pack rats and I inherited those genes.


Auctioning them on ebay?

Yup - it has been a while since I sold anything there, but I need to start 
cleaning out this house. It was fine when my parents were alive (we got this 
house so I could care for them in their old age) but now that they are both 
gone I need to look forward. A four-bedroom three-full-bath house is too much 
house (and too much money) for a mostly retired bachelor. I have to clean it 
out before I can downsize.

Re: Photographing Dolls

The key thing is multiple photosfrom different angles  - I wouldn't use 
a grey background.  It's a nice sharp capture.  The collectors just care 
about details

 of condition and putting something in for scale is important too.

PESO 2018 - one great trip - GDG

2018-10-04 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi
I'm on the last leg, homewards bound, now cruising down the Sierras on the 
train after six weeks of travel to the Isle of Man, Bedfordshire, Oxfordshire, 
London, Cape Cod, Rhode Island, New York, Connecticut, and all the other places 
between there and here. It's a grey, rainy day today but the mountains are 
still the mountains: serene and beautiful, breathtaking to roll through and 
marvel at. 

It has been an amazing journey seeing good friends, old friends, new friends, 
family, and places around a third of the world.

https://flic.kr/p/2bHmbnV

I'll be home tonight by 7pm. True journeys never end, however; this one will 
remain in my memory until Time is no more. 

Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful moments of the past six weeks. I 
cannot express how great it's all been. 'Til next time... :-)

It looks like an interesting system, and it's nice that it talks to

I'm not looking to spend any money on flash gear in the near future, 
but I still like to keep informed.

Re: opion wanted on Star D manual lenses

2018-10-04 Thread ann sanfedele

That -was- helpful, P J - in addition to Bill's comment..

 My friend will be happy for it to get some use and make a smidgen of 
money for each of us..  I think I'll put the lenses withthe body for a 
cheap starterset and less painfully priced shipping per weight.
