I've emailed the guy selling the Portal Repro Casablanca----in fact I
initially emailed him BEFORE it was even brought up on MoPo--telling him it
was
a REPRO not an original poster. I explained to him that I'd been dealing
and collecting movie posters for almost 30 years, etc, etc. He TOTALLY
IGNORED my advice to revise his description--remember, this was BEFORE there
were any bids--when he COULD revise it.
I emailed him today with a stern warning that if he doesn't stop the
auction IMMEDIATELY and explain the situation to the duped bidders, a
contingent
of a dozen or more movie poster collectors and dealers will inform eBay
that he has knowingly committed a fraudulent act by selling a worthless piece
of garbage as an "original" poster. I know some other MoPoers will take
action in this regard. Hey, I just don't want to see some poor, unsuspecting
buyer spend his hard-earned money on a $5 repro (being trimmed, it
probably wouldn't even bring in five bucks!) I'll let you know if he responds.
