A disapointing reply.
However, I should add that I have known this individual for many years and she
is a wonderful person, knowlegeable in the area, and willing to sell on eBay
with very reasonable opening bids, and her listings include decent descriptions.
Items I have purchased in that past were well packaged and arrived promptly.
She has been listing since July 2001 with 0 negative feedbacks -- an indication
that I am not alone in this opinion.
Its unfortunate that a eBay's sales model encourages so much sceptisim in both
sellers and bidders. This is certainly a result of having scads of reprints
available hawked as originals, and irrisponsible (and picky) bidders unwilling
to send a check.

I sent the Seller the following set of questions concerning these posters:
(slightly customized for each poster)
Hi. I'm very interested in this poster as well as the ESB but would like to be
assured of its authenticity as an original theatrical release poster. Will you
please provide exact measurements? Can you provide a closeup picture of the
bottom border of the poster? Can you confirm that it has a Lucas watermark? Are
you able to provide the name of the dealer whom you purchased it from? Your no
Refund/Return policy is troubling, will you guarantee that it is original and
that any information provided is correct? Will you provide return/refund if the
information turns out to not be exactly correct? THANK YOU, Bill
Here�s the Reply:
Hi Bill:
Please do not bid on this poster, you sound as though you do not trust anyone
and quite frankly I don't think I want to do business with you.
Thanks
Notes:
The posters may in fact be legitimate, but why would I buy from a dealer with
this type of response to my questions. Yup I should trust this person,
especially when he has the following Return policy (Not).
Absolutely NO REFUNDS, NO RETURNS. NO EXCEPTIONS. Please bid responsibly.
Yours in Collecting,
Bill
