Nasty.

Just another reasons to steer clear of the Mondos...

I have an admitted prejudice against the Mondo prints and their ilk...

But (and this happens with collectables in other areas - heck even Blurays before they are released) the whole initial bonanza whenever a new "limited" print is released has lead to sellers selling something they do not even truly possess yet!  How inappropriate is that?  Pay me $500 for these bananas but I haven't even planted the tree yet.

It's a dangerous counting your chickens before hatching slope.   It's slimey and you'll never catch me sliding down it...

Urgghh... I'm shuddering at the thought of doing this but I want to buy a poster from Tloceposters. I know, I know but I've been looking for a nice chaplin poster and he has one on there for around £30. It's not a very desirable poster and the photo shows it has folds and everything!!!! I understand he does sell originals and I suppose for £30 it's worth a risk. Please reassure me that he does have some originals??? :-*

Oh my, you had better search "tloce" for previous threads.  There is a library of controversy and out right piracy by that seller.  But, you are talking about a nominal amount and you like the image. And it is hardly a poster worth copying by the hundreds. But I personally don't like the idea of supporting a known crook.

If you are referring to the Chaplin film that has Robert Downey jr in it I would wait. They pop up all the time. I would never buy from Tloce. Regardless of the price I would not buy from that damn crook and support what he does. Just wait and buy elsewhere. And if it is not that poster I said above I would just wait. Like I said I would not give that crook a dime to support his operation. Chaplin posters pop up all the time. Just have patience.

Locust, the mere mention of that creepfreak puts me in a bad mood.  I feel that everyone must be made to suffer along with me:

Cheers guys... it's the Chaplin Revue poster I was looking at not the Downey Jr one. I'd rather wait and find one from a respectable seller (i just want a cool chaplin poster!) I don't want to fund the dark side!

Great idea. There are a lot of neat Chaplin posters out there. Just be patient and one will come along. Here is another Chaplin Poster that is pretty cool.

This one is in my collection but these pop up for sale here and there.

Anyone who's after one, I'm not a chaplin fan as such. I'm a Laurel & Hardy kind of fellow. 

A chap I know is selling one, he's after £250 for it, I did have a picture of it, if anyone's
interested I'll see if I still have it, or ask him to re-send it...

Original Vintage Movie Posters in Houston TX...  His linenbacking is so so too - he uses really cheap canvas...

http://originalvintagemovieposters.com/

I've not wanted to say anything but then today on my facebook I see this.  How sleazy is that?  That poster has never auctioned over $210 and this guy is saying it is undervalued at $275.  That is straight out lying to dupe newbies... Pissed me off...  So here I post.

I did but then felt a little trollish so I deleted... Plus he's right across town. Not that he can do anything but just felt a bit aggressive...

Understood. I'd probably feel the same way after commenting and do the same. Oh well. Hopefully interested buyers will do their homework first.

Avoid this seller on ebay at all cost. gaspetc. He is a douchbag fraud and very rude. My item arrived crushed and contacted him and he tried saying I was commiting fraud. Funny though I sent him pics showing him the damage and he said that. He said he reported me to ebay so I opened a case against him. DO NOT BUY FROM gaspetc

Randy .. It is always amazing how idiot sellers like this will accuse a buyer of damaging a poster that they REALLY wanted. Makes no sense, especially when you took pics and showed him the damaged package and poster.

There are some real 'winner sellers' out there, needless to say.  :P

Yeah tell me about it lol. I am going to fight it till the end. He has a website pauraprod.com which has a lot of neat stuff. But after this experience with him I will never buy anything from him again.

Not sure if this would be of interest to any in the UK. I never bought posters from him....

Mark Mountford- Councillor guilty of film poster charges

A town councillor made £90,000 selling fake posters for blockbuster Hollywood films including Star Wars, Die Hard and The Dark Knight Rises, a court heard.

He says he sold on ebay. I wonder if the posters he produced and sold were listed under the "Originals" sub-section or the "Reproductions" sub-section? The article doesn't specify.  :-\
