As posted by John Reid to MOPO a few days ago.

A cool clip of an East London cinephile who has a memorabilia shop there, too.

Good stuff!

Yes. That's in Hackney. I went there to buy films for my very old...-nearly dead but still holding on - silent films projector.

What do you have? An 8mm film projector? Maybe Super 8?

We had a regular 8mm when growing up.

I still remember ordering from Blackhawk Films, at age 17, the full (complete) 8mm version of Chaney's Phantom. It even included the color Bal Masque sequence. I still have it.

Oh wow, do you have the projector too? Mine is a 8mm something something built for something and something else. He explained it to me but frankly medear, he spoke for nearly 25mn non stop... I nodded, smiled, paid, thanked him for his time and left. I need to pop in again to buy more films

I dont have an 8mm projector, but my parents do. My dad also shot a lot of home movies, way back, on 8mm, so they got one so we could all watch the stuff he shot.

Fun times.

Family films are the best

My father was a photography instructor at a tech college. He bought a 16mm sound projector at a school surplus sale and he and I repaired it. At that time (mid-late 60s), you could check out 16mm films from the public library, so we had a showing every weekend.

Do you mean the buyer or are you awaiting a response from yourself!

So will the bidder/winner get penalized or can one just bid willy nilly and get away with it?

Ari · « **Reply #537 on:** March 14, 2015, 12:32:25 AM »

if they do it often enough they might get a warning,
you cant leave them a neg nowadays.
Great.

Can you not offer the item to the underbidder?

And with the winner do an "Ari". It works. He can tell you about it!

there was no underbidder

Had it all packaged and ready to go and everything. Sigh.

I got a couple packages from Heritage today. At first I was like - Hmm, I already own all of this.

Then I realized that even though the posters were showing on my website, they were absent from my database.

So I checked the date on the invoice... 12/9/2012.

Thanks Heritage

Are you SURE you haven't spent 133K on posters...

My nanny keeps telling me to go give my head a shake. Her expression. Maybe she's right

One thing about Heritage, though... They are honest. After 2 1/2 years, it is obvious that I forgot about the items, so kudos to them.

I had the exact same thing happen to me last week for some Heritage posters from November 2012.

Heritage have some serious problems with shipping it seems. That's ridiculous. I couldn't bear to wait three years for a poster purchase to arrive! Sounds like Grey is not on top of that one

Mirosae · « **Reply #548 on:** April 03, 2015, 03:39:56 AM »

^ Agree. I don't think shipping is their forte. My Nov 2012 took nearly 2 months to post out. Maybe they had issues with their shipping company then. Things seem a bit better now but still slow.

@ T ...can i ask? Just curious...Did you get any letters apology from HA or any sort of compensation?

Filmlobbycards · « **Reply #549 on:** April 03, 2015, 04:27:41 AM »

There is a reason for this...Heritage uses a 3rd party shipping resource...Grey has nothing to do with this but is known to deal with them instantly if there is a problem.....there were several problems being discussed publicly leading up to a clear change in shipping circa mid 2013.... Remember the scathing public email from Todd about lackadaisical shipping practices regarding a 6 figure poster?

Since then they have clearly changed and still have a practice of shipping out accounts that are considered "open" where consistent purchasers actually have their auction purchases shipped BEFORE they are paid for...clearly a "thank you" to devotees...I have had several auction goodies shipped to me from them before I even paid for them...they usually send you an email saying your purchase was shipped on an "open account" and that you should pay soon since your item has already shipped...
