Oh, and I got a bunch of other B1's for a song including those for Winter's Bone, another movie that I really like. So, overall, I'm very pleased.

And, once again FUCK YOU Cl442358!!!!!!! for making me spend so fucking much. This reminds me when anonymouse and rattler were pissing people off by bidding so much

And I would love to wipe your fat ass. I would only give up Melancholia for you, big boy.

BTW, Bruce, what is up with all these people registering on your site with letters and numbers? I am Eatbrie, Holiday is Holiday, Matt is HarryCaul... Why don't you force your clients to have a real name, so at least we know who they are.

I agree - but those are the system generated names. I guess some people are very lazy? Or maybe there more sinister motivations?

Unless he decides to direct a Chandler adaptation?

probably not his thing. Spielberg pretty much only makes message movies now. What would be the message from a Marlowe film?? People Suck??

Bruce · « **Reply #1890 on:** February 01, 2012, 08:18:31 AM »

A very high percentage never change their auto-generated names (the first two letters of their last name, plus 6 random numbers).

I once sent an e-mail to those people reminding them of how easy it is to change their ID (and giving them a link to the change page) but very few did, so I gave up.

It is especially frustrating because a huge percentage of the people who can't remember their ID and need to have it e-mailed to them (and they rarely can figure out how to do that themselves) are people with the auto-generated IDs (I suspect they are not very computer savvy).

Remember that all of you can change your ID as often as you like (especially if you suspect someone is targeting you), but very few people do that either.

I did for a while but then I was targeted by those hunting mice (anonymouse) and snakes (rattler).

Now, I'm out of the closet.

and there folks is the oblivious mind forgetting what Richie collects

jayn_j · « **Reply #1894 on:** February 01, 2012, 03:34:18 PM »

Just looking at the bulk lots closing on movieposterbid today. I guess Rich is vindicated on going to the bulk lots as the current price on each of those is likely higher than what he would have gotten by selling them as individual titles.

Not sure what Rich is doing as I don't visit MPB site much, but I remember hearing (maybe on Mopo?) that a sign of a hobby having less appeal is the occurrence of more bulk lots for sale. I wonder if this is happening?

That would be a good thing for the guys who collect for fun.

my bulk lots represent the need to do 2 things:

1) clear out space faster.. My 2200 sqft warehouse is jam packed

and

2) eliminate lower value material so I can focus on better material & make more money per week because my costs only increase & the 2nd employee + the new postal rates are costing more!!

Yeah, I remember you saying that. I didn't expect the3 bulk prices to go above what you would have gotten for the individual items. That was the surprise to me. The cards in these lots were $1-$2 sets (you said that).

i said $1 or $2 cards and actually up to even $5

I need to eliminate the very cheap stuff.. I'm happy to let Bruce sell 16 trillion items under $5 every year.. I need to up the ante
