Just out of curiosity, I looked back at the posts to see what the "problem" was with Rick. And I hadn't read the posts about the Beatle posters because I didn't want, or buy one of the posters. And as has been stated by other MOPO'ers, how could Rick be responsible for the shipping methods for another seller? The only logical answer is, he isn't. Any other answer is laughable. I get posters in those lousy tri-boxes every now and again. And thin tubes are just as bad, by the way. Usually these poor containers come from antique shops and the like. Some of them, I think anyway, don't know how bad they are. And some sellers go for cheap and really don't care if a 50 year old poster arrives in one piece or not. It's interesting the older posters, pre 1960's, will take the mashing much better then the newer paper. John W

I have to defend Rick here. I mean it is easy in hindsight to say Rick should have instructed them on how to ship". But Really, when you think about that, it is kind of crazy. Why would you think Rick should have any say in the seller’s professionalism? Rick was just passing on a HOT TIP. If it were me , I would have assumed these sellers had enough brain cells to use a shipping tube other then the cheesy Postal tubes that my 3 year old daughter can crush with her hands. And she only weighs 38 lbs. I for one appreciate Rick letting us know about this “deal of a lifetime”. I mean seriously, How often has anyone seen AUTHENTIC vintage posters like this surface on the market. Heck some dealers on this list are already selling their HELP Tri Folded sheets for $1200 on eBay. So, other then the damaged, these posters are amazing! -----Original Message----- >From: [email protected] >Sent: Feb 10, 2010 7:48 AM >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [MOPO] Anyone received Beatles "HELP" Tri-Folded One Sheet >posters? > > >J.R. > > Hey, I've had tri-folded one sheets shipped to me rolled in a sturdy tube >before.
