Can someone authenticate Wonka's pic for me?

Which one, Carroll O' Connor or the boat?

I can, 100% Joint Photography Experts Group formatted image, for display on web browsers and home computers. Genuine, and original.

Think about it this way.... CMast offered a free PRETTY WOMAN poster (a 555.00 value

), with the purchase of the $25K THE GHOUL OS.

That way, you really are only having to cough up $24,445.00 ...

And where is Jeannie at a time like this.. i think she would love that PW poster for her dining room!

The old boy network is pretty gross.

You should try posting something negative on the Alamo thread sometime.

Not to make this a thread about Cinemasterpieces and Dave, but just my $0.02, in my buying/selling transactions with Dave, he does seem like a good guy. Although it is easy to point the finger at someone for selling something at a much higher price than the vast majority and label him/her as "the bad guy", it's truly just a different approach to selling. Examples are endless but as I remember someone else mentioning before, Tiffany's is a good example, as one can go there and pay probably 5-10 times more for basically the exact same thing that can be bought elsewhere, but they are in business for the same reasons Dave and anyone else for that matter is in business, and I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that most people understand the additional costs, and (of course) the additional peace of mind when buying from them.

why do some people believe it's wrong for Nate to ask whatever he wants to for a poster he owns and paid for with his own cash?

such thoughts are among the most juvenile that cross the brain's synapse

True, Ari.. no harm at all. certainly nothing was suggested. I left my post as a simple statement because when brought up before, other members seemed to have grown tired of seeing this poster mentioned on APF, yet again. (Hence the use of the

).

And nate certainly can list it for whatever he wishes. Nothing was said to the contrary, in that regard. The BIN price was stated as simple fact.

I don't watch this thread very often - which poster is back again and has a $33 billion asking price?

erik1925 · « **Reply #786 on:** April 12, 2011, 05:25:19 PM »

GILDA

Shows how often is comes up. That was my guess, and I'm only here once a couple of weeks.

Discovered this, listed for sale, on Ebay. It's the beautiful quad, for TO CATCH A THIEF, previously owned by our own Scartacus and discussed about a year ago, here on APF, when he had it cleaned, lightly restored and backed. (He's not the current seller, however). Listed with a BIN of 1950 GBP ($3171.00 USD) or best offer.

What the hell?

http://cgi.ebay.com/English-1sht-movie-poster-RAIDERS-LOST-ARK-1981-/350455492176?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5198c66e50#ht_750wt_905

So I've been looking for this poster for a while. This seller has listed this poster twice, I've been in touch with him a number of times about whether or not he has another one of these posters without tape and pin damage. The damage is pretty bad considering what it should be. There are 2-3 pinholes in each corner, the tape has stained the paper, and there are stray pinholes in unusual parts of the poster. He has been listing it for $49.99 and not received a single bid all three times I've seen it.

Now he's decided to list the same poster for $125. What?

It is actually extremely common for sellers to do this...with anything, not just posters, on ebay. If no nibbles at their initial bid is made, they will throw it on their BIN shelf with a higher price, with the hopes of it selling on a rainy day to the right person...in most cases it will sell eventually, as does everything.

This poster for that price...will probably take awhile, but who knows.

If you want Raiders, get RAIDERS, with the classic font and everything...but we have already touched on your blasphemy here lately, haven't we?

I agreen Ben, if you want it make an offer. Honestly, it is a great poster and will probably only get more expensive with time.

Hi Conor,
I didn't phrase it well in my post, but I personally do not like the UK anything for Raiders. Both the US initial release one sheet and RR one sheet are classic images, and for many reasons. The infamous Raiders font alone on those two vs. this UK issue makes it no contest.

CJ138 · « **Reply #797 on:** April 13, 2011, 08:59:43 PM »

I think you were clear I did'nt pay enough attention. jameson 1780 is to blame. either way offer 40 or 50 bucks Anthony....

wonka · « **Reply #798 on:** April 13, 2011, 09:08:46 PM »

I agree with the $40 offer to start, up to $50 need be...
