I'm disappointed.  Where are the 10 lb. paper weights?

Barbarella is paper backed, it must be shipped flat. It will actually probably cost more than $130.00 to ship it!

As for our price......we will get it (or close to it) eventually. 8)

Been a long time since I needed this sort of maths, but if I remember correctly (someone can help me here!)...I THINK it goes like this...assuming it's a 27 x 40 then the formula is 27/1 x 40/6000 = 27 x 0.0066 equals one piece each 0.1782" square.

I'm hopeful to get the one with the eye - I'll definitely frame it

What happened to the set of 10 Harry Potter character posters in the Sunday auction?

My fault Holiday, I emailed emovieposter about them and seem to have caused the cancellation of the auction! They said they'd intended to list them seperately and made a mistake listing them all together. Me and my big email mouth eyeroll

Apologies

Yes, we were set to e-mail the consignor to ask how he had obtained them, and we discovered he had asked for them to be auctioned separately, so we had to cancel them and they will appear in our next auction of 27x40s. I know it wasn't your intention, but thanks much for causing us to catch this serious error. I don't know if they will go for more or less separately, but we have to do it the way the consignor wants.

Incidentally, the consignor is an executive at Warner Bros, and he has now told us that he was told when he got these at work that they were made for the international release of the movie. but he doesn't know where (or if) they were used, and he doesn't know why some measure different, but they are absolutely authentic.

I missed seeing those. Which film(s) were they from please? Did anyone save pictures?

I didn't save the pictures and the listing's removed now, but you know all those dodgy reproduction character posters for 'Deathly Hallows 2' on ebay? The Weasley brothers, the Goblin/sword, Bellatrix Lestrange etc etc, that was them, emovieposter was consigned all 10 as Bruce mentioned above. I've never seen authentic versions of any of them, so coming from a WB executive they are very interesting!

Wow, that was a clusterfuck.  AP manages to get them taken off the auction, because Bruce made a mistake in how they were listed, and the auction was NOT noted by Marklawd such that the posters WOULD have been obtainable.

NICE!

A little deflated, but no worse for the wear.  It happens!
Best regards,
