I do admit that it has been a while since the last idiot (excuse me....  
confused individual) bought a piece of movie memorabilia thinking it is a dvd 
or video.  The one that really got me was a person who did, then stated they 
just purchased a video from me and when I pointed out what they actually 
purchased told me "why would ANYONE possibly want that?  What a stupid thing to 
sell!".  Actually that was my ploy....  I post hundreds of movie items just to 
sucker in the video and dvd collectors of the world....  aha!  They have caught 
me!

Actually I have another problem very similar to this.  My website is 
ilovefilms.com and I am constantly getting emails through my site asking me to 
stop billing them for movies or wondering where there movies are.  They are 
always out of the UK.  In doing some research I found there is a website called 
Lovefilm.com which is kind of a netflix out of the UK.  You would figure when 
they are on my website and send me an email through the contact link that they 
would see that I am not THAT site.  I always point them in the right direction 
and tell them if they are ever looking for movie paper then come back and check 
out my site.  Those movie watchers are getting me coming and going....

You're 
lucky. I get these ALL THE TIME even though my postings all say in big bold 
print: THIS IS NOT A VIDEO. THIS IS NOT A DVD. Usually the buyer completes and 
pays for the transaction and then sends an e-mail saying, "I just ordered a 
video from you."    This is to ensure additional work on my part, 
cancelling the transaction through Ebay so that I can get my commission fee 
back 
and reversing the PayPal payment. It also means I have to recreate the listing 
for my dbase which automatically deletes listings once a purchase is made. I 
love customers who don't read the listing. 
 
The 
second dumbest question that I get ALL THE TIME and love to death is from 
people 
who see I'm selling a lobby card from let's say The Bride Wore 
Boots who'll write to me and ask where they can find the DVD because 
they've been looking all over for it. FRANC

I know I don’t sell  as many items as many of you all do, but I still have yet 
(knock on wood) to  have a single person complain that they thought they were 
ordering a DVD, or  ask a DVD question while the auction was running.
