Harry.. you mix apples and oranges
you think that everyone is supposed to be
accepting of anything someone she does not know says to her
maybe she thinks that authentication site is a
load of crap and Mel is just trying to get the poster cheaply.
here's a real good example of the issue in a different form
Birthers..
we all know they are crazy. the information has
been shown to them time and time again. many
Republicans say Obama was born in Hawaii. But
still some 10-20% of the population thinks he was
born in Kenya and keep saying so.
are these people just stupid and ignorant, or are they POS?
you need to be a little more pragmatic and less accusatory
she's a dumb cluck which I know from personal
experience. that doesn't make her a POS. she
doesn't believe Mel and does believe her
consignor. She knows nothing about movie posters
and probably is selling the stuff because she has
an ebay account and the person she's selling for doesn't
everything that is wrong in the world is not
necessarily a nefarious conspiracy. some things
are just stupid results of a lack of education. Like birthers

Mel sent her a link to a authentication website
which is highly critical of a poster she is
claiming to be an âoriginalâ. Whether that
was definitive proof or not, she knew there were
questions about this posters authenticity and
sold it to some poor SOB anyway -- and for a
boat load of money to boot. You may not think
that makes her a POS, but I do. Do you think
it is ok for people to sell hairy-belt SW
posters as originals even after they have been
pointed to evidence to the contrary? What is your opinion of TLoce? ;-)

does it occur to you Harry that maybe she didn't believe him??
maybe she asked her consignor who said "oh yeah,
it's original" and she believes him rather than an ebay bidder??
she may be a dope, but that doesn't make her a POS

Well, she canât claim im ignorance/idiocy on
this one Rich
Mel over at APF sent her a
message 4 days ago letting her know it was a
repro and linked to the MPA entry on that
poster.Ã She sold it anyway.Ã What a POS.

this seller really is authentically dumb and
probably doesn't know it's a repro
I bought some lobby cards from her not too long ago.. they never arrived.
she didn't send them with a tracking # even
though she charged for Priority Mail
and so, I demanded a refund (for obvious reasons)
she didn't feel it was her fault because she said she sent them
but I didn't receive them, so I must get a refund
she refunded my money.. and then banned me from bidding!!
total idiocy..
she sold an item I tried to snipe (how I found I
was banned) and lost beaucoup $$ in bids.. much
more than the original disagreement
I had a snipe for $225 on an item that wound up selling for $36
if that isn't the definition of dumb, I don't know what is

though these were never folded). Someone just got hosed.

I thought the poster in this auction was a
reproduction when I saw it. Mainly because I
bought a frame at a sale for $10 and it had the
same Pulp Fiction poster in it. The poster is
set up different than the authentic one, at least the one I'm familiar with.
This one listed on Ebay sold for $654. Ebay item 200594465296
