Hi Gary,
I use Andale, but during a period when it was down, I gave Auctiva a try for
a couple of weeks. I found it a little less easy to use and maybe a bit
slower than Andale, which I have been using as far back as when it was Honesty
and
free.
I did find Auctiva to be relatively easy to

The grading is irrelevant because the seller has given you a very
clear picture. This is far more important than a poor, fair, good, etc.
rating. Bruce H. gives you extremely fine pictures and tells it like it is
with either frameable "as is" or "lesser", which means restoration
required.
Definitely Fair.
This poster has unfortunate placement of the Heads. If the missing paper in
the center was in a field of green, rather than right in the center of
Laughton's head, it would be considerably less of an issue.

Anyone try and use the Vendio Checkoutsystem this morning? I won an item yesterday and the seller sends me a Vendio link to pay him. I'm trying to pay using PayPal and nothing but headaches. "Order cancelled" over and over. I can't go to PayPal directly and plug in the data, either. PayPal tells

Hi Andy
I meant to say GOOD JOB and GOOD LUCK with your new website when I saw the
fanfare on NSFGE, but I'll say it here instead.
I hope it goes well for you.

As Claude pointed out, with a well-photographed and well-lit
high resolution photo, you don't worry about the words -- unlessthey talk
about something you can't see,like "lots of tape on the back". Otherwise,
you do your own grading based on the photo when that is possible, as it is
Hi all
I've been on my hols so am slowing going through all the MOPO posts in my
in-box (of which there are many!).
What a pleasure to see your exhibition on RKO pieces, John. I really am
very fond of the Australian Daybill and these are very nice indeed.
Great work!

The trouble is that people have not accepted a uniform grading system and
even if they did its still subjective as what one person sees as excellent

Someone mentioned a while ago that it is best to store posters flat
and not in the plastic sleeves. You recommend them. Have you had any
stored a long time either way? I store my posters flat in architect's plan
files without plastic in between. I have also had posters in frames for a
I think you're missing my point. A hi-res photo will never be as good as an
accurate description (you need both)... What are the most common defects on
movie posters? Pin-holes (which can be hard to see on hi-res photos).
Small tears (can be made to look invisible on hi-res photos). And,

No, Bob, you're the one missing our point: A written description is always
going to be *subjective* to the writer (which is the seller), and a good high
resolution photo is not. If a seller writes a description describing every
single pinhole, winkle and minor tear, he makes his C7 poster sound
