Mid-auction analysis - OMGs!, LOLs!, WTFs!, whatev....

Too much work?

1) Put unwanted items in tube or box and wrap securely (or have a friend do it for you).
2) Take to UPS or Post Office (or have a friend do it for you).
3) Sit back and cash checks as they come in.

That doesn't SEEM like "too much work", does it? And no photographing, describing, and listing. No packing and shipping 100 items one at a time!

Too much work T; gotta sort them first.  And with all the crap you've got:

Thierry,

I am not sure if what we offer is good for what you want to do. First off, it would probably only make sense if you only sent the ones that figure to sell for at least $15 each, due to our commissions. You might not want to go to all that trouble to find just those items. Second, you might find our grading too harsh for you. If we call a poster "good to very good" and you think it deserves higher, then you can't tell us to change it (you have to just live with our harsh grading), so that alone might make you not want to consign.

But if you still think that you want to, then let me know, and we can try to arrive at a plan. If not, I certainly understand.

Thanks,
Bruce

P.S. For a more timely response, please reply to phillip@emovieposter.com

Feel safe fucking with you Bruce since I just got my 6th poster in the Halloween auction...  Now send me some books!

It is too much work by my standards, and I could never find a friend to do it for me.

For instance, I have a few mint rolled Revenge of the Jedi posters, but they are all the way at the bottom of the pile, and I just can't deal with it.  So I just add to the stack.  One day, I'm sure, but not today.

I bet there are LOTS of people who would volunteer to help you for free!

But if not now, then next year or the year after.

And Charlie does remind me of the important caveat. If you only have inexpensive posters, we would either not want most of them or ask that you let us bulk lot them (but of course that is immaterial, since you don't have the interest at present).

[Charlie]

I so have one of these.  Still in the package.  I have the 6' poster somewhere too with all the DC characters carrying the coffin...They gave it to dealers (my dad got one for the shop) for the promotion of the comic...  Cool!

Emovie is auctioning a kick-ass 2001 6S.  Look how pitiful the 1S looks compared to it (images are proportionately sized):

[Harry Caul]

People seem to pay a helluva lot of money for that little Cinerama logo!

[Bruce]

Some of the most frenzied bidding imaginable from four different bidders!

All over a tiny picture!

[Bruce]

A FIFTH bidder just entered the fray!

[ATLfun]

I think we should already rename this thread to BRUCE AND DAVE BACK PATTING AND FREE ADVERTISING.

Like you both, but honestly I have never "seen" two people better at talking about themselves; cant argue with the results though!

[Bruce]

I am sorry I "outed" the auction, in case anyone here was hoping no one had noticed it!

I hadn't noticed it. I was too busy watching X-Factor...  Not!  But no, I didn't notice it.  Stills are so pointless to me; I have yet to figure out their appeal...

[Dread_Pirate_Mel]

That is very striking indeed and much better than the one that sold for $4,000 IMHO.

So who is kittycat? S/he has $$$$ and is frequently fighting for this kind of expensive stuff....

[Bruce]

Sadly, this is the last robot still. There are 6 more stills left, which will be auctioned in the December auction (there were 21 in all) and all were purchased nearly 40 years ago!

[brude]

Wow, went for almost 7k...makes me wonder what else they have in their collection...sheeesh...

[Bruce]

It may sound like a lot, but look for someone to post soon and say how it sold for half of what some dealers sold it for recently, and how incredible of a deal it was for the buyer!

It is a spectacular image.

It`s kinda easy once you see it...

Makes me wonder what this would sell for (not that I'm going to find out)

Oh!... I hate you Sean

$12.77
I've already sent you a check

[CSM]

I'll pay $12.78!

I see them as another cool part of movie history.  I only have three of them(including the one in my avatar)but I like em. I had to stop looking at them at the beginning cause I found myself bidding on them. NOT Smart for my limited budget. If I had limitless funds maybe.

It is a spectacular image.

Agree.

[paul waines]

I guess it's a case of if your into Posters, or Cinema. Poster collectors aren't really into Cinema and it's history. So
Wouldn't be interested in other film Memorabilia. They may collect Cinema posters, but it's the posters that's more
important.

I'm into Cinema first, and posters are part of that. If it came to a choice of you can have the film, or the poster?
I would pick the film every time, which is probably why I have several thousand films....

[Harry Caul]

Cinema first for me too... That is why I'm not hung up on format (1sh, 1/2 sh, insert, Yugo, etc...). That still is phenomenal. Call me crazy though, but I actually prefer the still/lobby with both the mad doc and the robot.
