[MOPO] FA: New Year's resolution? Buy more inexpensive one-sheets w/ $1 start & NO reserves!

2008-12-30 Thread Bruce Hershenson
Maybe it is because it is just before New Year's but with just 12 hours to go, we still have 557 folded one-sheets at just $7 each or under, as well as 323 folded one-sheets at $3 each or under, and that includes a surprising number of really decent titles (many from the 1960s!)! For those *REALLY*

That's an interesting list. I'll check these out, and see how I concur -- or not. I liked AUSTRALIA, but it took the film 40 minutes to decide what it was exactly. K. On Dec 30, 2008, at 10:20 AM, CK MacLeod wrote: One of the better end of the year lists IMO. Plus there are two or three

Comparing the pictures it looks very much like it is the same poster. Tears at top edge left, and bottom edge right correspond. Bottom vertical tear. The one running down the centre from the top whether masked in original pics, or it's extended since her pics were taken, dunno. Cheers, Rich O

Oh, and if it's as brittle as it looks, and then rolled, wouldn't be surprised if that wouldn't be enough to extend that fold tear. On 30 Dec 2008, at 21:50, Richard Halegua Comic Art wrote: no Patrick it's a pic of a poster she previously sold for $600 - a stock image. she had no packing in

I also think it's the same poster. Like Patrick says, if you look at the chin/neck area of the ebay photo, you see a strange line of discoloration that corresponds to the tear in Rich's photos. I think the seller may have conveniently cropped the photo just at the neck, since I suspect the

It doesn't matter if it's the same poster or not. The poster apparently arrived damaged beyond reason. The seller should return the money to the buyer in the interest of good business. But if you're waiting for three weeks for a refund, this seller is either an A**hole or a crook or both. FRANC --

Well, Franc, kinda have to disagree with you. Sure it arrived damaged, sure the seller should return Rich's money, but to give the seller a pass for the high possibility that they were patently dishonest and doctored or 'massaged' their Ebay images to fraudulently present the poster in a bet

It never surprises me anymore when shady sellers on e-bay list collectibles like posters and even film prints as one's that they found in the proverbial attic. I usually avoid these seller's because of that same "gimmick" line. I think the ONLY one to ever find anything in a REAL ATTIC is Dw

I think some of us disagree that's it's a stock image, and not the poster you were sent because too may details, (tears), match up between the two sets of pics. There's extra damage since the seller's pics, (in the link you gave), but it looks like it's the same poster, (in the link with your

Well, as there was more than one in the same find, it's not unusual for several or even all posters to have the same, or close to, similar defects. There was that batch of MAMMY long daybills all neatly sliced across in the same spot a couple of weeks back. Another showed up a week later, coomp
