Mario Cueva
has done a 24 Sheet recently, and it turned out BEAUTIFULLY.
He can certainly linen-back 6 Sheets as he does them regularly, though he is 
not a framer.
Mario can be reached at Lumiere Poster Restoration:

  I think the more appropriate question is , "Does anyone on the board know of 
anyone who can linen-back a 24 sheet?"

When I moved into my new house a few years ago, I had extreme difficulty 
finding anyone capable of linen-backing a 6 sheet and framing it for me.

Re: [MOPO] Question About Lost items

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Greg & Todd & all Mopoers,
FYI, regarding International Shipping, we at aaavintagemoveposters on Ebay use 
USPS Priority International shipping which has always worked great for us, BUT 
we have recently had two instances in the last month where shipped items show 
ZERO tracking info for well over two weeks.  Shipping from SoCal and no 
movement whatsoever, not as if items were stopped at Customs at their country 
of destination, but no movement at all.  Then suddenly the items show 'accepted 
at USPS' after 2-3 weeks and within a week are at their destination (in this 
case Canada & Paris).  Tried contacting USPS but they could only open a case on 
the lost items.  The good news was once contacted, the items began moving out 
of Los Angeles within a couple of days.  Very odd, but have had great 
communication with understanding Buyers and all arrived albeit very late.

 Greg,

If you sold this through ebay, you should use their Global Shipping Program 
which you would have to check the box when doing your listing.

It's more expensive for the buyer but you're only responsible for shipping the 
item to a central location in Kentucky or somewhere like that.  From that point 
on, you're not responsible for the item getting to it's destination.  

It sounds like you shipped this to the buyer directly, so unfortunately, you're 
responsible as far as I know.  Hopefully, it will still show up.

I've had buyers in Europe contact me asking to sell directly but every time 
I've removed the Global Shipping Program, it usually turns into a major 
headache, like what you're experiencing now.

Do yourself a favor to save yourself a lot of grief.  Next time you list on 
ebay, check that small box for their Global Shipping Program.

Good luck my friend.

Todd

Subject: [MOPO] Question About Lost items

Hey guys,
I have a situation where I shipped a buyer in France two 20 X 30" stills from 
RETURN OF THE JEDI on March 18. This guy is going out of his mind because they 
haven't arrived, despite the fact that I sent him a scan of the original 
receipt from the customs form with the tracking number, date, and amount paid. 
He somehow found that the items made it as far as Paris.
Tracking numbers apparently do not work in France at this time, and I know that 
some items are taking a long time to reach their destinations due to security 
concerns in that country. (Although I sent an item to another buyer in France 
last week, which he received quickly and painlessly.) The USPS has no answers 
for me.
Question: is there any kind of coverage for this kind of situation through 
either Paypal or Ebay? I think I'm sunk as far as the post office goes, but I'm 
hoping that some of the more experienced sellers on this group can give me 
ideas. I'm having trouble convincing this guy that I'm not part of some 
anti-France conspiracy with the US Postal Service. I'm starting to get an idea 
of how this guy's mind works, and I know he's going to file a complaint with 
Ebay, which is the last thing I want.
Any ideas?
Best,
Greg Douglass
PS-I stopped selling on Ebay awhile back. NOW I remember why..

[MOPO] AUCTION TODAY @ 10AM: Autographed Movie Memorabilia, Contracts Photographs From Hollywood's Golden Age

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Hello Fellow Mopo-ers
and thanks!  My name is Patrick Tupy and we may have had contact through Ebay 
as I sell movie posters for Steve Olson through his aaavintagemovieposters Ebay 
Store.
I was entrusted with the sale of the impressive Hollywood memorabilia 
collection of the late Al Morely.  Al had two stores in Hollywood for years, 
became close friends with many Hollywood stars from Ann Rutherford to Lana 
Turner but retired and packed up all his memorabilia into storage where it 
rested since the late 1980's.  There are thousands of items, so due to the 
overwhelming nature of the collection I assigned Al's collection to Ira  Larry 
Goldberg Auctioneers and the auction of these items begins today at 10am 
Pacific Time.
There are some incredibly rare items ranging from gorgeous original Hurrell, 
Clarence Sinclair Bull portraits  rare, stunningly beautiful vintage Carbro 
print photographs, to items signed by everyone from Chaplin, De Mille, Von 
Sternberg  Griffith, Rudolph Valentino, Shirley Temple, Jean Harlow, Brando, 
Clift, Elizabeth Taylor, Judy Garland, Clark Gable, Paul Newman, Mae West, 
William Powell  Myrna Loy, John Wayne, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Fred 
Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Frank Sinatra, Gary Cooper, Marlene Dietrich, as well 
as a GONE WITH THE WIND lot, a WIZARD OF OZ lot, as well as hand-written 
correspondence from Audrey Hepburn and Olivia De Havilland  Katharine Hepburn, 
and the list goes on and on.  It's a veritable who's who of autographs, 
signed/inscribed photos  contracts from the Golden Age of Hollywood
There are some terrific deals to be had here whether for personal collecting or 
for resale as many of these lots have very low opening bids.
If you have the time, please take a look at the lots 766 - 939 and more of Al's 
collection will be featured in future auctions as well.
Here is a link to today's 10am PST auction:

Re: [MOPO] I'm never telling you again

A, so THAT'S why I'm so damned happy!

On the other hand, Andrea, 'gettin' some' regularly also leaves one  
open for all sorts of viruses

UNLESS you properly install a prophylactic 'firewall.'

ps: just heard of a virus attacking Macs.  Who makes these things and  
why don't they just

Re: [MOPO] FROGS 1sheet -- who was asking me for it?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

All right, I am admitting, as I've already contacted Rich, that it  
WAS me who asked about
the FROGS poster a month or so back as I was looking for one with  
the  Today the Pond,

Tomorrow the World line on it.

Re: [MOPO] help

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Surely, Sue,  he meant Beverly Hills and Arkansas.

What I find most interesting is that among his complaints about  
'bullshit' and spam,
he ends his insult including plea for Help by adding his own B.S.  
spam in his post script:


ps. If you would like to join a free membership to
Posterfix and get an exclusive video each month on care and

Yeah, I asked for that.  And after watching him post links to his  
self-agrandizing youtube vids, aren't his complaints a bit like the

horsesh*t calling the bullsh*t crap?

Buh-bye,

Re: [MOPO] help

Now Richard, I'd have to say that he's more of a 'practicing' AH  
rather than a
'complete' AH.  It's not that I disagree with you, but after what  
I've witnessed, I
believe he still has some potential to 'grow' into an even bigger  
version before

he becomes 'complete.'

Umm, Phil, I'M was the English Major.  I don't want to cast  
aspersions on this new
fellow, Mike, from Paramount who may be a fine person and not deserve  
such
a preemptive aspersion.  But I'm sure he appreciates your heartfelt

the same...;-)

ps: and if at all possible, I'd prefer Peter O'Toole to play me  
albeit in his younger days.

Re: [MOPO] KILL BILL 40x60????

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Hey Rich,

I just took some pics of a couple FINDING NEMO Bus Shelters I'm  
selling and these are 48 x 68
so if it is 40x60 that sounds more like the old 'Drive In' size.  If  
you haven't seen them, here's a link

to all my posters for sale including the FINDING NEMO Bus Shelters:

Re: [MOPO] KILL BILL 40x60????

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Hey, CK, just so you know, I have several bus shelter posters for  
sale and while most
are 4'x6' some are an inch or two smaller by width and length which I  
just realized
is because they are British Bus Shelters (note they say In Cinemas  
November 18).  While my U.S.
FINDING NEMO Bus Shelters are true 4'x6' while the HARRY POTTER AND  
THE GOBLET OF FIRE
Set of 4 are approx: 46x 68 (they are here:  http://flickr.com/ 
photos/55172...@n00/
As for shipping, they roll great and you just need a long enough  
tube.  49-50 usually does it.  The cost

of shipping due to their weight is another issue entirely.

As a side note on the bus shelter speculation, US bus shelter  
posters are
typically ca. 4'x6', not 40x60, and no one would confuse them with  
regular
paper, even heavy stock.  Shipping them or any 40x60 First Class,  
as this
seller promises to do, would also be something of a trick.   If for  
some
reason I found myself seized with the desire to purchase one of  
these, I'd

want to know what he really intends to do about shipping.

I think that pretty much solves the mystery, such as it is.

Thanks to all for the thoughts on the subject.

The one thing that eBay doesn't seem to understand is the fact that  
every time they change the view for the buyer, they wonder now  
what and go where they know what they are doing instead of trying  
to figure out the new view.
For a site that seems to want to be a Amazon Wannabe, they should  
learn from Amazon.   When you go to Amazon, the page is still  
basically the same as it has been for years, best I can remember.   
Always know how to buy there.   Don't have to learn another new  
system and how to use it to buy.

thanks for the info.. however.. this poster must exist in
some
quantity, since you said you bought it at Disney World,
where other

regular one
sheet size and is a smaller promotional item, that was
probably
available in gift shops. is this where you bought yours? i

Re: [MOPO] When do YOU think was the moment when eBay jumped the shark?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Whenever they lost the balance between greed or desire for profit and  
practices which actually served their customers' needs.


Lately it appears they're in desperation mode, trying to justify  
their dopey changes by further falling down the proverbial slippery

slope with 'new and improved' stupid moves.

Seems like Ebay is the new AOL (pronounce as you see fit).

in 2002-03 when they went all out with their TV blitz advertising

at that time, the term ebay was being introduced as an internet

But just like the dot-com bust, what the marketing later had  
trouble with was not understanding that just because the internet  
grew 1000% in just a few short years, did not mean and could not  
mean (by simple mathematics) that it could continue such an expansion.


To be more direct on that issue: in 1992 less than 5% of the US  
households had computers. By 2002 close to 75% of all US households  
had computers. What the equation didn't take into account was that  
the remaining 25% were either too poor to own a computer, too old  
to be interested in a computer or just not interested in a computer  
and so growth for the future was therefore severely limited, so the  
belief that the internet  ebay would continue to grow was a  
fallacy as by 2003, they had almost reached the epoch of membership  
which has since 2005 fallen off in direct relation to non- 
participation by millions of buyers


since that point, fleabay has deteriorated steadily

When do YOU think was the moment when eBay jumped the shark?

Bruce

*N.B. According to Wikipedia, the phrase jump the shark refers  
to a scene in a three-part episode of the American TV series,  
Happy Days, first broadcast on September 20, 1977 . In the third  
of the three parts of the Hollywood episode, Fonzie ( Henry  
Winkler), wearing swim trunks and his trademark leather jacket,  
jumps over a penned-in shark while water skiing.


Even before jumping the shark was employed as a pop culture  
term, the episode in question was cited many times as an example  
of what can happen to otherwise high-quality shows when they stay  
on the air too long in the face of waning interest—or when they  
simply cease to maintain quality standards for writing or acting,  
resorting to cheap sensationalism etc. The infamous scene was seen  
by many as betraying Happy Days' 1950s setting (as well as  
reversing its earlier character-developments, as noted above) by  
cashing in on the 1970s fads of Evel Knievel [1] and Jaws.  
Producer Garry Marshall later admitted that he knew the show had  
lost something as the crew prepared to shoot the scene. As  
Marshall pointed out in the reunion special that aired on February  
3, 2005 , however, Happy Days went on to produce approximately 100  
more episodes after the jumping the shark episode. During the  
same special, in response to an audience member's question,  
Marshall introduced the notorious clip and noted how the show had  
inspired the term.


The first public use [2] of the phrase as a direct metaphor is  
reported to have been on December 24, 1997 , when the  
jumptheshark.com website was launched by Jonathan M. Hein.  
According to the site, the phrase was first coined by Hein's  
college roommate, Sean J. Connolly, in 1985. The term first  
appeared in print in the April 9, 1998 , Los Angeles Times  
Calendar Weekend section.


The phrase has been used more recently outside the realm of  
popular culture, representing anything that has reached its peak  
and has declined in quality. If one thinks a stock or a sports  
team or a subcultural phenomenon has reached its peak, for  
example, one can say that it has jumped the shark. The phrase  
can also be specifically, the phrase also refers to a particular  
event that demonstrates this decline beyond all doubt, such as  
whenever an entertainment company or business makes a grave  
mistake, and therefore rapidly loses ratings or fans, becomes  
bankrupt or is sold.

Re: [MOPO] When do YOU think was the moment when eBay jumped the shark?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Wait, you guys convinced me, Ebay's THE BEST!  I won't ever say  
anything bad about the E(mperor)bay because of all the good things

Ebay has done for me.   Give me a break and REREAD THE QUESTION.

Look, Ebay does many things well but Bruce's point is not a bad one.   
There is risk of overshooting in all business enterprises and
clearly many of the reasons Ebay has declined in my experience have  
been self-inflicted policy changes.   What was the tipping point?
If you're not interested, methinks you don't need to read these  
responses or respond to every question if you think the landscape has  
been
played out.   And btw, if Ebay's so integral to the hobby, what's  
wrong with pointing out how and where it could improve?   But to have
participated in said 'bashing' at any point and then to judge those  
voicing their opinions in response to a valid question is  
hypocritical at best.


Not to throw stones, but many of you appear to be installing a wooden  
door on your glass house.


The question was not, let's chat about what Ebay does well and  
overlook their flair for poor 'advances' on their site.  I am in  
agreement
that there are many good things about Ebay, I wouldn't be anywhere  
near the hobby without Ebay, and I've made many friends through my
collecting in the hobby BUT, that was not the question at hand.  In  
fact, any issues I have aremerely because I lament the passing

of the Ebay that used to be and what could have been so much better.

Re: [MOPO] Why do you think Bruce posed this question in the first place?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Rick, oh yee of little faith.

Of course it could be more transparent!

For example, if Bruce were hard-selling he might have added, And  
speaking of 'jumping the shark' how 'bout those JAWS, JAWS 2, JAWS 3,  
JAWS 4 'THE REVENGE,' DEEP BLUE SEA, OPEN WATER, BLUE WATER, WHITE  
DEATH, SHARK ATTACK, SHARK ATTACK 2, SHARK ATTACK 3 'MEGALODON,' 1  
sheets that are all STILL AT ONLY .99!!!  What do I gotta do for you,  
chums?

Just appears to me to be another obvious attempt to promote his own  
auctions.  Kind of funny, actually.

The whole thing couldn't be more transparent...

No, Rich, I just figured it out, there's actually lots of extra room  
since many of the posters are smaller than 27x40!


They probably had to get some repo's to sell to make room for all the

Re: [MOPO] To The Lumis and Claudes and Other Mopoers With Peeves

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

I just overlook those things if I like/want the poster.  Unless it's  
Freeman's description, then I read it for the humor and
creative composition.  Every Seller has their own 'take' on what  
sells best, ultimately it's finding the right buyer and I
don't think any of you would pass on a great poster or deal on a  
decent poster regardless of the fashion by which the
Seller thought best to get you into his 'showroom.'  You all just  
scan them for condition and look at the pics anyway, so

it's really their waste of time.

I'm currently sitting in the sunny patio of my fave coffeehouse in  
Laguna Beach having an iced cappuccino and doing some
writing.  It's about 75 degrees with a really nice warm breeze and  
the Pacific is reflecting the sun like blue steel.  Catalina Island

is 26 miles away, but looks more like 2 miles as it's so clear.

I'd say this is perfect weather to take your pet peeve out for a walk!

Happy Saturday, Mopoers

You may do this but it is a waste of time.   People who buy posters  
of value are fully aware of these facts.  People who buy  
inexpensive posters are buying posters for movies they have seen.


Anything about the movies is a diversion away from the description

should spend the time signifying details of the description and

When adjectives are on occasion inserted in the headings,  or extra  
time is spent explaining why a director is significant,  what make  
a certain, sci-fi film unique over many of the others,  why James  
Whale counts,  or Edgar Ulmer,  or why a film is crime and not  
noir, as a seller,  I try and excite and educate new enthusiasts to  
the fold with information,  along with accurate descriptions of the  
specific piece offered and listed in the proper category.


If we sellers only had to depend on crusty, tired, curmudgeons and

invest in the restoration.  That's right, it's a 'lose/lose'  
proposition since you'll be upside down on the poster if you have it  
restored so
you'll lose some $$ that way, or you'll likely lose $$ selling the  
poster as is.


Happy New Year, Evan

A question.

What do people do with posters which are in dire need of more  
restoration that the poster is worth?  I have serveral nice posters  
worth about $100 which I paid about $100 for which need about $100  
(at least) of work (including backing).  I am not sure what to do  
with them, as they are really not displayable in their current  
state.  I hate to throw them away, but I really don't feel like  
throwing more money at them -- is there some sort of poster rescue?

Re: [MOPO] Original DRACULA Poster or worthless Portal Repro?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Hey, John, I agree that AT LEAST she posted the comments.  However,  
she sent me an email telling me how she was handling it and my  
response was to question why she would not simply cancel the auction  
and contact all bidders.  Then go forward with her new intelligence  
and list the poster properly as a reproduction.  Posting the comments  
was a start but anyone who had bid prior to her posting 'Notes' etc.   
might not bother scrolling down the page.


It is my belief that she was finally contacted by Ebay since several  
of us reported the error in her listing and complained that she knew  
it was a reproduction but continued with the auction title ORIGINAL  
DRACULA MOVIE POSTER, when she knew is wasn't a 1931 original.  I  
hate to sound so cynical but it certainly was convenient that the  
'Portal Press' was torn precisely away from the bottom border but the  
1931 still remained.

So here's the last note she sent to me after I suggested she cancel

Hi,We couldn't change the description after someone bid on it,only  
add to it.We added another large addition below the pictures and now

Okay, so now she has a note in red at the bottom of her pics of the  
Portal Dracula now stating NOTE;There has been quite a few Emails  
regarding this posters origins.We found this Poster in a back room of  
a 20s era Movie Theater when We were in there searching for the

template from the previous auction which says No Reserve The

Of course, she has also been informed of the poster's pedigree which  
she is 'conveniently' not disclosing.  So I am now going to let her  
know that as the poster IS a reprint and NOT 'ORIGINAL 1931' as  
stated in the first word of her auction title, if she doesn't stop  
and relist the auction I am going to notify Ebay.


I think Rick's approach was the right one inasmuch as he gave her  
enough rope to save or hang herself.  She is clearly choosing the  
latter so I can't see how it's ethical not to attempt to stop her  
from actively harming a potential collector who is about to get burned.


I know I would appreciate it if someone stepped in,

selling an obvious 1960's reproduction from Portal Productions as an

 As for the SEC being asleep at the wheel, I think it was way

It tells about what a brilliant man he is, and it concludes  
Several people who know Madoff say his saga reminds them of a  
Greek tragedy. Just like Icarus who tried to fly too close to the

success and respect. Says Madoff's defense attorney, 'this is a  
tragedy.'


This really offends me. He was a crook who has done untold damage  
to tens of thousands of people's lives (counting the many  
charitable groups he ruined) and he did so in the worst possible  
way, by being a confidence man who won their trust and then  
betraying it.


The people who were swindled have some responsibility, because they  
forgot the old adage if something seems too good to be true, it  
probably is, but their doubts were overcome by their basic greed  
in wanting those great returns, and in their belief that no one  
could be dishonest and operate on that scale.


But this crook is the lowest of the low, and deserves no sympathy  
and is not tragic by any measure.


What do YOU think?

Bruce

P.S. If one thinks this has nothing to do with movie posters, it  
seems an absolute certainty there will be one or more movies made  
about this fraud, and that opens the question of what title they  
will choose (maybe The Death of Icarus?) and who will be chosen  
to play the lead role!

Re: [MOPO] WAY OT: What drove Bernie Madoff

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Bruce,

I agree with you about bonuses but also about HOW hey spend the  
bailout money should be regulated.  Banks that didn't need the
bailout are getting hundreds of millions and they aren't using it to  
free up credit practices.  Wall Street companies are giving
bonuses and paying dividends to Stockholders which means the  
Americans who just lost their job will be payingoff those investors'
dividends making it tougher to send their kids to college, etc.  This  
is a bunch of b.s. and these guys are crooks in suits.  I don't care
what 'party' you're for, unless we regulate this tax bailout, the  
'party' is over for the middle class and a Feudal system of Lords and
Serfs and no middle class will be ushered in quickly.  And if History  
serves, revolution follows.


We have targeted tax breaks all throughout our system in order to  
stimulate and encourage development of necessary resources for the
good of our country.  And we regulate so much that it actually has  
become starkly obvious that there's something amiss about the push to
enact this handout before it could be 'conditioned' and Paulson has  
no business in his position unless we want a puppet to distribute as  
this
administration sees fit.  This was at it's heart, a money grab, this  
administration has never been truly a Republican conservative  
administration
but it has had a cynical cronyism which has had nothing to do with  
what's best for our bottom line.  At least we've seen fit to  
mandatorily 'fire' our
President automatically after 2 terms, now it appears as if there  
needs to be term limits at these Wall Street Companies and Detroit as  
well.
So I don't care that there were no strings attached to the first  
'infusion' of the bailout.  It's not like these companies have a lot  
of options so I say
fire the bums who got them into this with poor business practices, we  
can change the 'deal' at any time because it's OUR ball and we can leave

the playground at any time we like and not bail out any of them.

IT'S NOT TOO LATE TO REGULATE!

If, as the saying goes, 'What's best for business is best for  
America' then just how's that workin' out for us?


Happy New Year!

Patrick

ps: as for your 'best and brightest' comment, I suppose you were  
being sarcastic as no one has ever accused Bush or his folks of being  
either, much less

both.

Funny how no one is recommending that anymore. The funny part is  
that it isn't a bad idea right NOW (with the market at the levels  
it is at). They could set up a government fund called Social  
Security Investments and buy chunks of the down and out giant  
companies that have been dragged down by the credit crisis (like  
GE, GM, etc) and negotiate insanely good deals (like the ones  
Warren Buffet always demands and gets) and then they should leave  
those investments alone, and never sell them. Sure, some would work  
out poorly, but overall, they would do quite well, as long as our  
country eventually gets out of this mess. I see this as a win/win,  
because the companies would get much needed cash infusions, and our  
future retirees would have tangible investments instead of an IOU  
from the government.


Incidentally, all government bailouts should come with the proviso  
that no bonuses be paid to executives until and unless the loans  
are repaid in full. If the current execs don't like that, they  
should leave, and be replaced (and it is hard to believe their  
replacements could do a worse job than they did).

Bonuses should be earned like anything else.

Bonuses should be payed BY THOSE who benefit from the superior work  
produced as you suggested, Sue.


HOWEVER! The bailout is being payed by ALL OF US, not just by the  
stockholders so ZEEERO dollars should go to paying ANY bonuses.

Re: [MOPO] WAY OT: What drove Bernie Madoff

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Happy Holidays, Bruce,

I totally agree with you.  Bernie Madoff's 'tragedy' is no more a  
'tragedy' than what we all could possibly be if we didn't wrestle  
with our own demons so as not to visit them upon others.  Underneath  
it all here is a guy with a lot of potential and clearly appearing  
trustworthy but ultimately there is something broken inside him.  And  
now he has broken so many others for he apparently could not break  
the cycle by taking responsibility for his own personal  
shortcomings.   So what if he was such a nice guy and smart?  There  
are plenty of people with decent morals and loads of potential in  
prison right now if only they could reign in their impulses and yes,  
I suppose those stories are tragic on some level.  To revere Madoff  
due to the breadth of his crime is absurd.  End of the day, he is at  
the top of a 'pyramid' of his own making; that of crook, swindler,  
and perhaps comparable to a serial killer, only he used trust as his  
ultimate weapon to destroy the lives of so many out of his personal  
desperation to succeed or be in control or win or prove that he was  
good enough, smart enough and gosh darnit people should really like  
him, or whatthefu*k does it matter?


I suppose there is a tragic component to all our lives but on balance  
does it define us?  Would we be better off, would the world be better  
off had we not been here at all?


Which brings us to your seasonal proposition of casting Bernie Madoff  
in the George Bailey role.  On balance we're looking at a different  
ending.


If you've got money, fine, but I'll stick to being a 'King' in my  
counting house, counting out my blessings,


Patrick

WHY there are so many more male collectors than female. After  
all, I see nothing at all gender based in this hobby, unlike say  
baseball cards, where all the players are men. There are  
certainly a lot of movies that appeal more to women than men,  
and I would think a high percentage of movies are completely  
gender neutral (appeal equally to men and women).


So what do YOU think is the reason there are far more men than  
women in this hobby?


Thanks!

Re: [MOPO] OT: YOUR opinion of the best on-screen romantic pairing ever in one movie?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Hmmm, ROMEO AND JULIET (Zefferelli's w/Whiting  Hussey), TWILIGHT  
and ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD?


Only half-joking with TWILIGHT since the stars do have great  
chemistry if nothing else.  I always liked Zefferelli's R  J (though  
Baz Luhrman's MOULIN ROUGE has a decent romantic pairing).  As for  
Flynn  DeHavilland + romance, well, is it a double-entendre when  
Flynn sez Welcome to Sherwood, M'Lady?!

I need to know the definition of a hack as we are talking silent  
films here.  Is overacting considered being a
hack?  I just figured the presence of overacting/sentimentality was  
the rule of the day in silent films.  I can hear
the directors shouting through their megaphones, Once again, with  
BIGGER feeling!

In consideration of her contributions to American cinema, the

Re: [MOPO] Trial for Mary Pickford's Oscar started today

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Rich, my two cents...

Shatner RULES!

I think he's brilliant in his own way.

I always thought of 'hacks' as those who were unaccomplished due to  
lack of talent.  Now some fail forward in Hollywood
as in any business regardless of their lacking talent, but whether  
you like Shatner or not, I'd use a more specific adjective
to describe him; H-A-M.  But he does have talent and is particularly  
good in many roles.


But a ham unchecked is pathetic and unwatchable, while Shatner is  
supremely watchable as he 'gets' the joke and milks it.

Holy Ghost of The Golden Years!  I thought Channing was just kidding.

And I don't think Fairbanks and Pickford are comparable to Brad Pitt  
and Angelina Jolie.  Fairbanks and Pickford were bigger

than Brangelina.

In sports it would be like comparing Tony Romo to Joe Namath, or  
Kevin Garnett to Wilt Chamberlain...the comparisons
just don't work when you are speaking of those who set a historically  
high standard others benefitted from as they paved

the way with trailblazing boldness.

Dougary (it's trademarked so don't even think about it) was the  
wedding of the King and Queen of the silver screen.  They
were royalty during their days, any effort to sully them says more  
about us than it does them.

Re: [MOPO] Could this replace collecting actual movie posters?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Zeev,

Both points taken, it might or might not hurt the hobby.  As for me,  
I was after 1 Sheets like Glenn.  LC's were a find after I was  
collecting 1Sheets so I don't think it's a
black and white issue.  The advent of digital displays may dilute the  
new collectors but the scarcity may make posters and LC's more  
valuable.  Who knows for sure
what's on the horizon?  I'll still collect and I've turned on others  
who see my posters and LC's so maybe it will be through word of mouth  
and if the prices eventually go
up due to supply and demand, perhaps collecting will benefit as other  
artwork has.


Hope all had a great T-Giving!

Patrick

As for LCs vs OS, its highly personal a choice, and I don't want to  
get into this discussion.  Suffice it to say that in movie  
memorabilia shows, LCs outnumber larger posters, if for no other  
reason than ease of transport and display.
But back to my original point, I think that the elimination of  
lobby cards from the advertizing repertoire, have hurt the hobby in  
two ways:  First, you can't expect new collectors to enter the  
hobby, and collect something thay don't know exists.  And second,  
young people who like the young stars, simply can't get them on  
lobby cards.  Try and collect John Torturro, Coen Brothers, or  
Tarantino on LCs...
Collecting posters requires the space that most young people do not  
have!

Around Los Angeles there have been these huge screen billboards

And I believe there is a moratorium on them.  That would signify  
the end of larger size posters for sure. However, I can definitely  
see their use in movie theatres for one sheets.  It may be just a  
matter of time before someone says no more paper use this instead.


My question to you, were lobby cards really a jumping off point for  
collectors?  I was young enough to collect lobby cards but all I  
ever wanted were the one sheets I saw.  Lobby cards never entered  
into my collecting vision until much, much later. When I saw  
interesting title cards from the 1930's.

If they stop producing posters, I think collecting will definitely  
be affected.


I think one of the reasons that there are few new collectors coming  
into this hobby, is that Lobby Cards have stopped being produced 
(with some exceptions) and displayed in theaters, since 1985.
Young people simply don't know of the existance of Lobby Cards.   
With digital posters, the same fate may await OS posters.

I don't think that this gizmo will replace movie poster collecting.  
It will replace actual movie posters. Once these frames are in  
every theater lobby will there still be a need to print and  
distribute those expensive movie posters? It's not far away.

I think some of this goes back to the discussion on silent half  
sheets going on last week.


Certain stars and titles will always be collectible. Things that  
are hot will find it's cooling temperature amid a small but devoted  
fallowing.


The average 80 - 90 year old movie posters in mint condition is  
still affordable. Same for lobby cards.


For example, how many people on this list still get excited over  
Wallace Reid or Viola Dana material? It would be interesting to  
hear from dealers what silent star is still highly sought after.   
I'm not talking about Chaney or Chaplin but people who were huge  
stars in the teens and twenties and are not icons today.


Either way, if there's nothing to collect past say, 2010, in the  
way of one sheets, what direction does the hobby go?

Speaking of bad film title translations...

I realize that Elvis films are generally awful, but my favorite is  
It Happened at the World's Fair.


Something seems to have gone wrong when this film title was  
translated into various languages. I guess the rest of the world  
was not interested in seeing a movie about Elvis at the World's Fair.


Spanish:
Puños y lágrimas (Fists and Tears)

Danish:
Elvis i den syvende himmel (Elvis in the 7th Heaven)

French:
Blondes, brunes, rousses  (Blondes, Brunettes, Redheads)

Finnish:
Sydän tarjolla (Heart Available)

Swedish:
Hjärta till salu (Heart for sale)

The Argentina poster has the Blonde, Brunettes, and Redheads  
title, but at least they were nice enough to show the Space  
Needle. I think most of the foreign posters do not.


BTW, I live in Seattle, and I think the US one sheet is a must- 
have for any poster collector who lives here.

We were lucky.  In the early 60's the Big Show played every weekday

Then we had Dialing For Dollars on Channel 2 at 1 during the week.   
I swear I
saw both Shock Corridor and Naked Kiss there.  Last but certainly

Gil Hile's All Night Movies.  I saw everything from Max Ophuls'

Re: [MOPO] Fun MOPO Thread

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

K, SUDDENLY LAST SUMMER is worth watching if only for Liz's scream at  
the end.


As for Losey's THE SERVANT.  I watched it initially in film school  
then again recently and is unquestioningly brilliant to this day.


Never saw PICASSO SUMMER but it sounds hilarious if not boring as hell.

What's that horrible one they play all the time, you know, right  
around the Holidays?


I'm kidding.

I got to thinking that when I was a kid, there were a few movies

that these just weren't the kind of movies one would expect to see

Phoenix, AZ.


One that seems really strange now is SUDDENLY, LAST SUMMER with  
Monty CLift, Liz Taylor, and Katharine Hepburn.  I must have seen  
that film ten or twenty times on local TV in Phoenix.  Another odd  
one was Joseph Losey's THE SERVANT with James Fox, Dirk Bogarde,  
and Sara Miles.  Always on TV.


The weirdest film was one called THE PICASSO SUMMER with Albert  
Finney and Yvette Mimieux.  For some reason, that particular film  
played almost monthly for a few years.  It was an absolutely  
unwatchable comedy/drama about a married couple driving around  
Europe trying to run into Picasso.


Anyone else on MOPO have such odd memories?

Op 6 nov 2008, om 21:21 heeft David Lieberman het volgende geschreven:


these are YOUR exact words bob:

So, here's the list of things that are different between the  
originals and these possible-bootlegs (I'm going to call the ones  
we know to be original originals and the ones that are widely  
available bootlegs - I'm going to ignore the reprints for now,  
although they're somewhat similar to the possible-bootlegs):


Originals are about 27 by 41 - bootleg's are undersized

There is more artwork on the original - the bootleg's have the art  
cropped by just the smallest possible amount


The bootlegs have different brightness and contrast (considerably  
brighter than the originals)


The bootlegs have a printing flaw (that appears slightly out of  
focus on the reprint, but does not appear on the original).


The paper is about the same on both (the reprint has completely  
different paper).


The print quality is about the same on both (very high quality -  
the reprint has inferior printing).


I don't know what Dan's conclusion is going to be (it'll probably  
be months before we know). But, I would suspect, at the very  
least, he will mark them as buyer beware. Some of those  
differences above are very disconcerting - to say the least.  
Especially since, as I mentioned before, there shouldn't be more  
than one single printing of this poster (from one single day - at  
one single printing facility)...


Personally, I wouldn't touch one of these unless I heard from the  
source EXACTLY where they came from (and was convinced it was  
true). But, as it usually goes with large quantities of bootlegs  
that suddenly appear on the market, they'll probably never say  
exactly...


Cheers,

Well played, Sue.  You have always been fair and fair-minded to both

Re: [MOPO] Head's Up - POSTERFIX ALERT

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Exactly, Dave

The fact is, as I said to Sue privately, this is a very fragile hobby  
literally and figuratively, and if you tolerate the kind of abuse  
Cloutier or Joe Hernandez practiced,
then you are tacitly supporting it.Louie's confidence in Chris  
Cloutier notwithstanding, late or shoddy work defended by abusive and  
rude comments are no way
to run a business and I, for one, would not want to support and  
encourage such practices.   If he feels he can justify his comments  
and offer up any defense of his
abusive correspondence with a customer (!!!),  then I am all ears.   
Until then, I trust the growing group who have noted a tradition of  
shoddy work and service and
are speaking out about what appears to be a trademark noir for  
Posterfix.


I'll stick with Sylvia @ Precision Restoration.  Everything I've EVER  
given her is returned within 3 weeks and she has always done terrific  
work.

NOT isolated -- and this MATTERS, big time.  Even those with

Re: [MOPO] Head's Up - POSTERFIX ALERT

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Now this is valuable info.

I had considered but never used this guy only because I did one thing  
semi-intelligent in my life and deferred my poster restoration jobs
to those who knew more (Sue Heim and Freeman Fisher) and thus I was  
never steered wrong in their restoration and linenbacking

recommendations.

Not everyone has or will be so lucky.  So thank you, Andrea, Bruce  
and Richard for doing us all a serious service by revealing that this
'restorer' not only has 'no clothes' but has no class.  Forewarned is  
forearmed.


Great MoPostings!

TOTAL EFEN DISASTER

first of all the poster was shipped in one of those triangular USPS  
tubes.. well those idiots didn't put any packing material into the

the tube came in bent almost in half and naturally the poster was  
damaged
but even more.. the linenbacking  inpainted restoration looked  
like something my girlfriend's 3 year old niece could have improved  
upon with a box of crayola crayons so the bent in half part may  
have actually been a plus to it. I emailed those morons and the  
response I got back wasn't worth the time of bothering with those  
twits any further


In other words IT WAS THE WORST RESTORATION I HAD EVER SEEN OR WILL  
EVER SEE AND THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE TO BOOT


I wouldn't recommend these idiots to anyone except my worst  
enemies. They have the skill and talent of a dead corpse.


Moreover, Chris sent an email to Andrea today that uses words I not  
only could not post here, but words I never used against the worst  
girlfriend I ever had. If I was Andrea's hubby, I'd be calling some  
of the convicts who have eaten the food they supply to the prisons  
to have them pay a visit to him at Posterfix.


Chris, I hope you're reading this.. Not only will Andrea be  
crapping on what little reputation you have, but I'll be sure to  
repeat what I have written here in every possible way for all  
eternity and crap on that little reputation you have because you  
are the lowest filth on the face of the movie poster collecting  
hobby.. Even lower than Eugene Hughes

Re: [MOPO] Mopo- Posters - enconomy- Polotics- Future _ perspective

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

My Philiosophy, since no one asked:  When given the choice, too many  
people try to be 'right' and 'win'
when it's actually better to simply try to be 'smart.'  You tend to  
win and are right more often when you

don't try to win or be right,  but strive to be smart.

Therefore, I must conclude that while I find that I more often agree  
with FRANKENSTEIN, now and then I

must admit that THE MUMMY is actually better for some issues.

Beware charismatic leaders.  Just the same, beware those who lack  
charisma.  As for who is 'right' or who's

going to 'win,' I don't care who you're for, demand more.

Yes, I just quoted myself.

I'm encouraged that Mopoers can all agree to disagree about which art  
they prefer.


Happy Sunday,

Sue,

First, you should probably mention that the name of the buyer is:  
1i10101li0ili10li0ili10-10byte-me


Second, you should put a statement on all your auctions indicating  
that you will only deal directly with the buyer and not with their  
handlers, assistants, butlers, or groupies.


Is there some reason you need to keep doing the ebay auctions? I  
thought most of your income came from the studios and Patrick Tupy.

Hello Everyone,
   I have a situation that I have been trying to deal with and  
getting nowhere. I had an Ebay member contact me about two months  
ago wanting to buy a framed Lion KIng one sheet I had offered in my  
Ebay store.  She wanted to buy it unframed and I told her, while I  
appreciated the interest in my items, the poster in the auction was  
only available framed. She emailed me back intimating that I could  
sell it to her, off Ebay and I responded that I did not want to  
jeopardize my Ebay business and violate Ebay rules. Didn't hear  
back from her again until about 2 weeks later when she bought the  
framed poster in my Ebay store. She sent me an email saying she had  
bought, that she had a neighbor who might want one two and did I  
have other posters and she included a list. All posters were more  
recent titles and I explained that I primarily collect older titles  
but would have a look to see if I had anything. I asked some  
specifics for the frame choices, like color, plexiglass type, etc.  
Never heard a word back. Two weeks later I send another email and a  
few days later I hear from the buyer's assistant. They happen to  
be in Los Angeles as I am and want to pick the item up to save  
shipping. I say that is fine and then ask him the questions about  
the frame options. He then tells me they don't want the frame, they  
only want the poster. I reminded him that I had already told the

offer a credit if they wanted a nicer frame, I couldn't change the

me to just put the poster in a tube, make the frame separately and  
he would call me the next day to pay for everything with a credit  
card and he would come by on Saturday to pick everything up. He  
also wanted to know if I had compiled a list of what I had poster

I had made a short list of some items and we could deal with that

 A week later, I email again and a few days after that I  
receive an email from the original buyer stating she can't believe  
the poster has still not been paid for or picked up. She further

had to pay an extra $200 for the poster.  She said go ahead and

if that's a better fit...let me see what else is lying aroundOH!   
I have the whole set of Bus Stop posters with each poster dedicated  
to one of the Tri-Wizard Contestants from HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET  
OF FIRE...or a three sheet of YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN I'm thinking...let  
me repeat...THINKING of framing...;-)

Sue,

First, you should probably mention that the name of the buyer is:  
1i10101li0ili10li0ili10-10byte-me


Second, you should put a statement on all your auctions indicating  
that you will only deal directly with the buyer and not with their  
handlers, assistants, butlers, or groupies.


Is there some reason you need to keep doing the ebay auctions? I  
thought most of your income came from the studios and Patrick Tupy.

Hello Everyone,
   I have a situation that I have been trying to deal with and  
getting nowhere. I had an Ebay member contact me about two months  
ago wanting to buy a framed Lion KIng one sheet I had offered in my  
Ebay store.  She wanted to buy it unframed and I told her, while I  
appreciated the interest in my items, the poster in the auction was  
only available framed. She emailed me back intimating that I could  
sell it to her, off Ebay and I responded that I did not want to  
jeopardize my Ebay business and violate Ebay rules. Didn't hear  
back from her again until about 2 weeks later when she bought the  
framed poster in my Ebay store. She sent me an email saying she had  
bought, that she had a neighbor who might want one two and did I  
have other posters and she included a list. All posters were more  
recent titles and I explained that I primarily collect older titles  
but would have a look to see if I had anything. I asked some  
specifics for the frame choices, like color, plexiglass type, etc.  
Never heard a word back. Two weeks later I send another email and a  
few days later I hear from the buyer's assistant. They happen to  
be in Los Angeles as I am and want to pick the item up to save  
shipping. I say that is fine and then ask him the questions about  
the frame options. He then tells me they don't want the frame, they  
only want the poster. I reminded him that I had already told the  
buyer that the poster comes framed, and while I would be willing to  
offer a credit if they wanted a nicer frame, I couldn't change the

I just saw the Stepford Wives (1975) for the first time and thought
it was one of the creepier films I've seen. I'm surprised that this
film doesn't get mentioned more. Maybe some day the film will get
some respect, and large batches of minty white inserts will be
produced. I think the poster has a great image. I remember seeing
this image in the newspaper ads when the film came out.

I understand that the book had a more interesting ending, and that
the director re-wrote William Goldman's darker screenplay ending.
Still, I thought it was a very good movie.

I was e-mailing with Freeman Fisher and he mentioned he had seen  
Hud at least a dozen times (and I know I have as well, because it  
is simply a wonderful movie). I have found that there are a select  
group of movies where EVERY time I see one of them while flipping  
channels, I say I'll just watch a few minutes of this (even if it  
is in the middle or near the end) but then I realize a great scene  
is coming up soon, and I think, well, I have to watch that and  
then there is another great scene coming up and then quite often I  
end up watching it all (and marveling just how great a movie I  
think it is)! A good example of this for me is The Princess Bride  
or Cool Hand Luke, but there are lots of others.
I was wondering, is this just true of me, or do many of you also  
have movies that you find irresistible to not start watching when  
you see they are playing on TV (even though you have seen them one  
or many times before)? And if so, what movies are they?

Re: [MOPO] Paul Newman Dead

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Great Newman story, as told by the man, himself, on Inside The  
Actor's Studio:


Speaking of acting with Orson Welles in THE LONG, HOT, SUMMER, Newman  
chuckled and said, (paraphrasing here) Poor Orson, he came from the  
theater and he looked around
the set and all he saw was us method actors and we're taking a long  
time (gestures intense concentration, etc.) struggling and trying to  
get into our characters.  Finally, Orson says, Jesus Christ, I feel  
like I'm riding a tricycle in molasses!


And as an aside, Inside The Actor's Studio is a show hosted by an  
egomaniac punk named James Lipton who doesn't have the good sense to  
interview some of the founding members of actual The Actor's Studio  
such as Academy Award Nominee Kevin McCarthy (DEATH OF A SALESMAN 1951 
(!) who is soon turning 95 in February, is still sharp and would make  
a GREAT interview on the show.  Nah, instead, as Kevin says, in a  
very Newmanesque way, Let me tell you about that guy, I know him, my  
daughter went to that school...he's a star fucker!  But rest  
assured, Lipton will go out of his way to have those scions of the  
acting craft such as Teri Hatcher, Ray Romano and Adam Sandler on for  
their striking insights into acting.  I'll shut up now.


Btw, here's a great article from Esquire when Newman was 75.

Re: [MOPO] Who Is Your Linen Backer Of Choice?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Hi, Mike,

I've used several linenbackers and I am completely happy with Sylvia  
Locken from Precision Restoration.  Sue Heim can give you her contact  
information
and I often leave items with Sue as Sylvia will come by to pick up  
items from Sue and return them every few weeks.  That way I can have  
Sue frame the
backed and possibly restored item when Sylvia returns with the final  
product to Sue.


She is especially well-known for her work on Lobby Cards, Half-Sheets  
and Inserts.  Her linenbacking is first rate and the quality of her  
paper-backing
is unsurpassed.  I recently had Sylvia paperback a 40x60 of BEAST  
FROM HAUNTED CAVE that needed some TLC.  It now looks stunningly  
gorgeous.

Contact me if you'd like to see before and after pics.

Mike, I am sure all who have been mentioned do superior work, but of  
those mentioned, I have only had experience and am completely happy

with Sylvia's work.

Patrick

Dear Members,
I’m certain that you read Richard Halegua’s email listed below. I  
don’t think that anyone likes to hear that type of language and  
tone on this site that’s meant for information purposes. I propose  
that we ban such language in any future communication amongst us.

P.S. To respond to Mr. Halegua, I did email him when he announced  
his new auction site and invited members to participate but  
received no response.

You know Irvin, your email has so many incorrect statements I can't  
hardly point them out, but I'll try


first of all, I'm not sure what you mean when you say invited us  
to join
I don't believe I sent you any special invitation to do anything,  
though I did in 2006 and again in 2007 and again earlier this year  
advertise that I am open for dealers who wished to get away from  
fleabay and sell on MPB. Unfortunately, no one wanted to, no matter  
how much griping they were going to do about fleabay and at some  
point I decided that having MPB open to sellers I did not know  
personally may not be the right direction for me to take the site.  
As such, there is no link to request seller status on MoviePosterBid.


I will of course happily look at requests from people on a one-on- 
one basis


But because the fees are so low at MPB, I realized that even if  
other dealers sell the lofty goal of $1,000,000 in sales.. I only  
get $35,000, which begged the question do I really want sellers at  
all?
after all, I might have to hire someone to deal with all the  
problems for dealers  buyers which would wipe out any value - if  
$35,000 was much of a value to begin with - and to have competitors  
for my own auctions is probably also a negative.


Phil Edwards said There is, however, little doubt that MPB is now  
presented with its greatest opportunity to function as a specialist  
poster (and comics/pulps etc) site and build its functionality to  
allow professional and full time dealers to utilize its interface  
to a fuller advantage and for professional, full time dealers the  
site is still open, on the one-on-one basis. There are definitely  
dealers who have no chance of ever listing anything on my website  
because I may not trust them, because their reputation stinks, or  
even because I just don't care for them.The Phil Edwards's,  
Channing Thompsons, Bruce Hershensons, Moe Everetts and Grey Smiths  
will always be allowed to sell on MoviePosterBid


I have a feeling, because of your rude behavior.. that Irvin Gelb  
will never be allowed to sell


But there's more.. You sent me the link to your poster listings at  
fleabay.. Hey, if you think your prices are some kind of bargains..  
then you better start looking at people's results again, and then  
come to the conclusion that your prices are way over the top for  
anyone


concerning your belief that I am jealous of your sales at Profiles  
in History...

You have to be kidding.. I could care less what you or any other

My question was more along the lines of what could this schmuck

Yes, I did realize the prices that were published and they paid

As a matter of my standard business practice, I like to work with  
different companies so that I don’t put all my eggs in one

That’s it – very simple.

I have no dog in this race, but I think I can easily address one  
small part of this. I, and I am sure many others, have seen some  
of the sky-high results at Profiles in History (last year and  
others) and have wondered if all of those sales were consummated,  
and if so, if it was at the listed prices.


Given that you were a known consignor of some of those pieces  
that had reported sky-high results, can you confirm for us that  
in all cases you received those amounts (less their commissions)?


And if so, I think the question on everyone's lips is, why would  
you then consign anywhere else? And if not, I think the question  
on everyone's lips is, why don't they set the record straight and  
reveal what did sell, and at what prices?


I am sorry for all the ill feelings this topic has generated, but  
I would love to know the answer to the above questions, and if  
they are answered, some good will have come out of it.

Re: [MOPO] new eBay mandatory $4.00 max on shipping????

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Sue,

I don't think that Ebay is truly attempting to show buyers that Ebay  
is a satisfying purchasing venue.  Instead they would LOVE it if  
Sellers increase their item prices to cover S/H.


I believe that Ebay knows and wants Sellers to be adding the  
difference in shipping and materials costs to the price of the item  
as it positively affects their bottom line.  It may seem like small  
change, but it is a way for Ebay to gain more in listing and final  
value fees which they could not get as shipping costs are added  
separate to the money's paid for the item and thus those added S/H  
dollars have not been within their grasps.  But if they make a  
'standard' shipping cost and make it appear to be fair in a 'one size  
fits all' approach, the end result is Seller's add $5 or $30 to an  
expensive insured or overseas item and that $5-$30 added to the item  
instead of to S/H is adding money in Ebay's pocket as Sellers  
increase the costs of their items which equates to Sellers (once  
again) paying more in fees to Ebay for what was once S/H fee which  
they couldn't grab.


Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this certainly seems like a  
'found money' situation and an end resulting profit for Ebay.

I am hoping there will be enough of an uproar over this that Ebay  
will have to alter their thinking. I got the same alert message for  
the album cover frames I ship. Ebay had instructed me a year or so  
ago that my album cover frames could be listed in the Music  
category under accessories and that is how I have been listing  
them. My alert message is that the maximum shipping for that  
category will be $5 beginning in October. There is no way I can  
ship a custom made album cover frame for $5. The custom box and  
shipping materials cost me about $3 just by themself before I even  
ship it, not to mention that I ship fully insured at my expense. I  
keep getting the shipping message on my larger frames also. I  
ship a full size movie poster frame to anywhere in the country for  
$14.95. It costs me considerably more than that, so I am already  
absorbing part of that shipping charge. There is no way it can go  
any lower on a single frame and we ship for free on multipacks.


In their attempt to show buyers they are doing everything to make  
Ebay a satisfying purchasing venue, they are forgetting about who  
pays the bills. Sellers need to be taken care of also. That is  
evidenced by the number of sellers, many major sellers, that have  
left Ebay. I have spoken to several sellers who have said they will  
add the difference in the actual cost of shipping from the maximum  
amount Ebay is allowing to the price of their item.  I guess that  
is one way to circumvent the situation. I suppose if everyone had  
to do that it would level the competition field. But then is that  
really a fair deal to the buyer, especially one that might be  
picking up their item in person and wouldn't be paying any  
shipping. That is a common occurence for me in Los Angeles for my  
particular product.



I can't imagine what they are thinking.  Also, I have another  
thought. How can something being sold at a fixed price be called an  
auction? Auction denotes to me bidding going on.

Re: [MOPO] Is Ebay using the GOP Presidential race and Sarah Palin to promote itself?

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Franc,

Methinks it's the other way around.  The GOP is the brand here.  Ebay  
is, for better or worse, still seen by the majority of the public as  
a highly successful business venture with no
legitimate competitors as an internet auction site.  The GOP, not  
Ebay, is thus promoting itself by associating it's brand with a  
successful public venture and having been endorsed by the former CEO  
is the tacit connection.  As I see it, this is an effort by the GOP  
to attribute to itself success by association.


Of course, if perception is reality, that's fine if you're a buyer  
of an item on Ebay or of rhetoric in an election.


Otherwise, as we've seen on Ebay lately, and in elections throughout  
time, the truth is the devil in the details...

presidential campaign and is now one of John McCain's chief

mentioned several times now in her stump speech in which she lists  
all her accomplishments as Governor of Alaska that he successfully  
auctioned off on Ebay the luxury Alaskan state jet bought by the  
previous government for use by her office.  Turns out that's not  
true. After going unsold for months, the jet was put in the hands  
of Turbo North Aviation, an Anchorage aircraft broker, which put an  
asking price of $2.45 million on the nearly $2.7 million jet. It  
was ultimately sold privately to an Alaskan business man for $2.1  
million, $31,000 of which went to Turbo Aviation as a sales  
commission. Why is Sarah Palin lying about an Ebay connection? It  
doesn't diminish whatever accomplishment she achieved in selling an  
Alaskan state jet but it strangely propels Ebay into the headlines  
and promotes it as an effective selling tool in the public's eyes.  
I find this very puzzling. Does anybody else?  FRANC

The bottom line is the money they will take in the back door on  
final value fees, etc.. They can tell you they are lowering listing  
fees and all their other new found ideas for sellers, but they  
have their bottom line and buyers and sellers have their bottom  
line. Let's see how it plays out. As I said, I guess it levels the  
competition as other sellers will have to figure out a way to get  
their shipping costs in there just as I will. It only hurts me in  
our single frame auctions as most of our multipacks have free  
shipping. Since I offer frames at wholesale, it makes it alot to  
think about for me. I don't want to have one price for Ebay  
customers and another for website and local customers. The big part  
of this whole thing is that due to soaring gas prices, the shipping  
companies have raised their prices twice this year. Amazing.

I agree with you Patrick (Michael, I'm really getting tired of this  
alterego business, ha, ha !!!),


The bottom line is the money they will take in the back door on  
final value fees, etc.. They can tell you they are lowering listing  
fees and all their other new found ideas for sellers, but they  
have their bottom line and buyers and sellers have their bottom  
line. Let's see how it plays out. As I said, I guess it levels the  
competition as other sellers will have to figure out a way to get  
their shipping costs in there just as I will. It only hurts me in  
our single frame auctions as most of our multipacks have free  
shipping. Since I offer frames at wholesale, it makes it alot to  
think about for me. I don't want to have one price for Ebay  
customers and another for website and local customers. The big part  
of this whole thing is that due to soaring gas prices, the shipping  
companies have raised their prices twice this year. Amazing.

Sue,

I don't think that Ebay is truly attempting to show buyers that  
Ebay is a satisfying purchasing venue.  Instead they would LOVE it  
if Sellers increase their item prices to cover S/H.


I believe that Ebay knows and wants Sellers to be adding the  
difference in shipping and materials costs to the price of the item  
as it positively affects their bottom line.  It may seem like small  
change, but it is a way for Ebay to gain more in listing and final  
value fees which they could not get as shipping costs are added  
separate to the money's paid for the item and thus those added S/H  
dollars have not been within their grasps.  But if they make a  
'standard' shipping cost and make it appear to be fair in a 'one  
size fits all' approach, the end result is Seller's add $5 or $30  
to an expensive insured or overseas item and that $5-$30 added to  
the item instead of to S/H is adding money in Ebay's pocket as  
Sellers increase the costs of their items which equates to Sellers  
(once again) paying more in fees to Ebay for what was once S/H fee  
which they couldn't grab.


Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this certainly seems like a  
'found money' situation and an end resulting profit for Ebay.

Re: [MOPO] Fwd: [MOPO] Meg Whitman -- Founder of EBAY. . .

[Patrick Michael Tupy]

Everyone knows it was Thomas Edison invented Ebay.

NOT, Phil!

As he often did, 'Ol Tommy Edison stole the Ebay concept from Nikola  
Tesla's

remarkably flawless Ebay Coil which would eventually be corrupted by
Edison's lesser ideas of Direct Buying as opposed to Tesla's superior  
Alternating

bidding concept.

Eventually, like all that was taken and 'dumbed down' from Tesla, the  
thoughts
of how 'electric'  Tesla's  Ebay could have been would be lamented  
for generations to

come...
