Wow, it's good to read al this info abour mr. Loce.
We traded once with him and at the time his explanations seemed plausible,
but after reading all these horror stories we will definately stay away from
him.
We did not trade inserts with him, but a few one sheets, French posters, and

Great post, Phil. And I just enjoyed reading Ron's qualified and revised
opinion. Of course it's easy for some of us -- to come off holier than thou,

problems and run-ins with the hobby over the years. I myself
Hi Bruce,
As always great info.
Can you give us some titles of the suspicious sets you received from Europe?
Since I'm from Europe I'm very curious to find out.
Another disturbing trend is that some companies are producing promo/commercial
lobby cards.
A recent example is Dark Knight. There's an

This website was mentioned previously on group but I thought I'd remind people
about it again as it's obviously something that can be of some help in these
times of uncertainty and downright chicanery.

I'm glad we did not trade anything special with this guy. Based on our one time
experience we did have our doubts, but he sounded reasonable.
We also asked him about the NSS statement in almost all auctions and this was

Our plan is to combine all the scattered info and not only limit it to US
posters but also foreign posters and lobby card sets.

i have never really understood MILKY WHITE, but i knew it is bad, synonymous
with FAKE. In fact, bruce sent out a warning to his consignors on Sunday
about this subject. I was tempted to ask him to put
Describing the differences of a 'milky white' ... may be somewhat amenable due
to the nature of subtle understanding of different audiences. However, if

Hello everyone.
Just thought I'd chime in.
First of all.its MINTY WHITE.not milky white.
We blocked loce and the other well known fake sellers (toler-rokmodataol,
richter, and a few others) from bidding on our auctions a long time ago.
I can only hope that others here have done
Michael, I'm curious, were you not around when all the numerous discussions and

With just 12 hours to go, we still have 319 complete lobby card sets and
Argentineans at just $10 each or under, as well as 166 complete lobby card
sets and Argentineans at $3 each or under, and that includes a surprising
number of really nice ones! For those *REALLY* looking for deals, there are

It's been years since I've held one (I don't collect inserts or lobbies), but
as far as I remember:
The so-called 'minty whites' are printed on what I can only describe as a very
modern stock of paper (completely different from what NSS was using in the
