That is the huge advantage of having 26 people working here, compared to just a handful (or just two) at many other places. And of course it is not just your consignment, but all the ones we receive (which can be very daunting, since we receive thousands of items per week, of all sizes, from all countries, and from all years). This past Sunday we even added TOYS to our Sunday lineup! > > >Our job is to make it EASY for collectors to dispose of unwanted items, and to help them get more than they could if they sold them to a dealer. If they need to have notarized lists of what they sent (complete with videos of them placing the items into packages and taking them to the Post Office!) then we no longer serve that function, and our consignors will go elsewhere. > > >Bruce > > >On Wed, Jun 6, 2012 at 12:12 AM, Geraldine Kudaka <[email protected] > wrote: > >One point, which Sean inspired me to put into my email rebuttal -- is actually a very important point which I didn't bring up earlier because it wasn't relevant. > > >The same day we shipped out this 2nd batch of 30-40 un-inventoried posters to Heritage, we also shipped a batch of the same 30-40 batch size to Bruce. > > >We packed them at the same time, and took them both to be shipped, insured... of course. > > >Bruce immediately responded by email, and we started getting sales reports & payments to our Paypal account. > > >In fact, it was Bruce's regular payments that caused us to start questioning why we hadn't heard from Heritage. > > >So here's to Bruce, for handling out 30-40 un-inventoried posters in a responsible, professional way. > > > > > >Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com > >___________________________________________________________________ > >How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List > >Send a message addressed to: [email protected] > >In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L > >The author of this message is solely responsible for its content. > -- Bruce Hershenson and the other 26 members of the eMoviePoster.com team P.O.
