Special Notes About This Thursday's Items
Why are all the items we are offering
this auction in "lesser" condition? Â Â Â
Three times a year we hold a mini/major auction with mostly linenbacked
items. Sometimes people consign posters that either were poorly
linenbacked to begin with, or they were roughly handled and were damaged
after linenbacking, or the poster had LOTS of defects that required a
lot of restoration. In all three of these cases, we don't like to
auction these posters in our mini/major auctions, because far too often
people do not carefully read the written descriptions of the items, and end
up being disappointed when they receive a lesser condition item, even though
it was clearly written in the auction description!
   So we have gathered up all of the "lesser" condition
linenbacked and paperbacked items we have been consigned the last year or
more and are offering them in THIS auction, where you can know that
all items either are in need of additional restoration, or have had
substantial restoration (but of course, some people can live with condition
defects in 50 to 100 year old items, and can display them just as they
are!).
    PLEASE READ EACH ITEM'S CONDITION DESCRIPTION
BEFORE PLACING A BID! We give a generalized description of what
was wrong with the poster and what restoration was performed, and the
quality of that restoration, so if you read that information first and then
study our super-sized image, you will surely have an excellent idea of each
items problems!
   These items represent a wonderful opportunity for restorers
(either professionals or do-it-yourselfers)! You can purchase a poster
in need of additional restoration and have a wonderful opportunity to
improve its condition and then re-sell it at a significant profit
(especially if you consign it to an ethically challenged auction that does
not describe the amount of restoration each item has had!).
    There are some rare and unusual items within this group
of lesser linenbacked posters, and some of them are either ones that never
come up for sale, or which normally sell for high prices, but YOU may
get a chance to purchase it at an extreme bargain price, because of its
condition defects. |

payment details, and there are still a few people who fax us!
If you like to pay via Paypal (our PayPal e-mail is "mail@emovieposter.com"),

U.S. Shipping Details
THIS WEEK ONLY, all buyers (U.S. AND non-U.S.) must pay the
actual cost of
sending your order, plus $2 for the packaging materials.
    Why don't we have a "flat rate" for U.S. orders this
week? Because we are mostly selling linenbacked
posters which must be sent in our custom-made extra heavy duty gorilla proof
mailing tubes which are much stronger than the ones used by most sellers (*read
more about our "gorilla proof" tubes that stand up to the greatest
of abuse, and we wrap all expensive items in plastic, so that even a
submerged tube may arrive undamaged!). Shipping will vary greatly depending on how
many items you get, what weight of linen the posters were mounted on, if
they fit in the same package, and where you live. Generally it will cost
around $14 to send a standard-sized tube anywhere in the U.S. by either U.S.
mail or UPS, fully insured (all U.S. orders MUST be fully insured).Â
    Can we send your order in a less expensive way? We have
purchased movie paper items many hundreds of times over the Internet
ourselves, and we have seen the tubes that other
sellers use (both the free kind and the kind purchased at shipping supply
stores), and the protection offered by those tubes is spotty at best (those
cheaper tubes will often get bent resulting in creasing or tearing to the
poster, or in extreme cases, a tube can even lose a cap from an end
resulting in the buyer receiving a tube but no posters!), so please do not
ask us to use a lighter weight tube or less expensive packing materials to save on
shipping, because we won't do it! We know that once you see our tubes
you will agree that they are a great investment in protecting your purchase(s) and you will wonder why other sellers of vintage movie paper do
not use these same tubes (and if somehow you don't agree with us, we ask you
not to bid at all)!
You CAN usually combine shipment!
NOTE: These Thursday
items need to be sent rolled in tubes so...
*they
can NOT be
combined with any of our current or recent
auctions because we never combine backed items with non-backed items
because of the great chance of damage to the non-backed items.
Â
|
    Note that we not
only allow you to combine as many items as you want from a single set of
EITHER Tuesday, Thursday and/or Sunday auctions, and still pay only a single
shipping charge for all of the items, but we also allow you to wait
until the next three sets of auctions end (a total of six sets of auctions)
so that you can combine your current purchases with those of our following
auctions (if possible), and that means there is a chance you could combine
items from up to six of our sets of auctions, and still pay only a single
shipping charge (assuming those items fit into the same type of package). We
KNOW there are other sellers who charge a little less on shipping than
we do, but we know that our packaging is the best there is, and our orders
virtually never arrive damaged (and on the very rare times that they do, all
our U.S. packages are fully insured, and FULL INSURANCE IS INCLUDED IN
THE U.S. SHIPPING CHARGE).
DON'T BID ON OUR ITEMS
UNLESS YOU WILL PAY THE ACTUAL COST OF SHIPPING!

Non-U.S. Shipping Details
Non-U.S. buyers must pay the actual cost of shipping their order
(you can choose whatever method you prefer, but know that the U.S. Post
Office has eliminated Surface Mail, so we can only send via Express or
Airmail), plus $2 for the best packaging materials you have ever seen.Â
All non-U.S. buyers must tell us if they want the package sent insured or
uninsured at the time they pay for their order.
Here is a chart
containing estimated shipping charges for up to three one-sheet size or
smaller items from this
week's auctions.
(Note: Insured quotes are based on a $200 value; you pay $1.60 more
for each additional $100 of insurance) |

    IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please bear this shipping cost in mind BEFORE your place a bid (if
you live outside the U.S.). The vast majority of our customers want a very
securely packed tube, and will pay the extra shipping cost involved (and of
course, it goes to the Post Office or UPS, and not us!). Please do not ask
us to pack less securely, as that would likely result in a damaged order,
AND WE WILL NOT DO THAT! Â Â Â
Some sellers are sending by Ground UPS to Canada, but that incurs large
"brokerage fees", so we do not recommend it. Note that there are also
some sellers sending non-U.S. packages via a "Letter" rate, but of course
this is not legal, and we can not do this. We have outlined the
possibilities for sending non-U.S. packages above, so please read that
carefully, BEFORE placing a bid!
DON'T BID ON OUR ITEMS UNLESS YOU WILL PAY THE ACTUAL COST OF SHIPPING (the
actual cost of shipping plus $2 outside the U.S.)!

You Can
Add More to Your
Order
In addition to our current auctions, we offer
many other non-auction items. Please note that the items in this week's
auction will be sent rolled in tubes, so
you can add any item that can also be sent
rolled in tubes for no additional shipping costs. We have noted below whether the items can be shipped rolled or not.
