Where are the many bulk lots and our usual "Sunday items" regularly offered on Sunday?
      We are taking a break from our regular Sunday offerings of scripts, exhibitor magazines, movie magazines, German programs, hardcover books, pressbooks, sheet music, and bulk lots while we offer "oversized" items that ship in really large flat packages, but know that we have a HUGE number of items waiting to be auctioned in our "regular" Sunday auctions, so please know that they will return in one week on Sunday November 6th, and almost every week thereafter.

About our current 119 very "oversized" items
All of the items we are currently auctioning are very "oversized", meaning that they can't be sent in our regular standard-sized flat mailers and will need to be sent in very large oversized flat packages (all larger than the size of flat window cards, and some much larger). This means that, this week only, we can ONLY combine shipment of items that are sent in flat packages, and whether or not you combine it with other purchases, you will have to pay a greater amount for shipping than normal (especially if you live outside the U.S.), as these "oversized" flat packages will be more costly. We charge the "actual" cost of shipping this week (plus $3 for packaging materials) to all buyers (U.S. and non-U.S.) because we are selling items of dozens of different sizes (all "oversized"), so if knowing the actual shipping cost is important to you before you bid, please contact us with the item or items, along with where you live.

About the condition
We give a detailed overall condition grade ("fine", "very good to fine", "very good", "good to very good", and only a few which are "good" or lesser) along with more details about the condition described in words (where we thought additional details were needed, because the defects were hard to see). We felt this would help bidders identify items they want to bid on more easily. Of course, we could not describe every single defect, so we still strongly recommend that you look at our super-sized image to see the extent of the defects that we describe and to examine the still for minor defects that we did NOT describe.

Payment Options

We accept all major credit cards via phone at +1 (417) 256-9616 during business hours (Monday to Friday, 9 AM CST to 5 PM CST except from 12 to 1 when we take lunch), via e-mail, or via fax at +1 (417) 257-6948.

You can send a check or money order (if you do, enclose your address and details about what you purchased) to:
Bruce Hershenson
Attn: Payments
P.O. Box 874
West Plains, MO 65775

If it is your best payment option, you can pay by Western Union, but please don't send cash (as we can't be responsible for lost cash).

If your order requires a shipping quote, please request it through our Checkout system. Please note that we are still developing this checkout system, so while you may request your quote using it, we do not quite have it ready to complete payment (although we hope to have that added soon), but payment may still be completed using whatever method you have used in the past. If you run into any sort of problem requesting your quotes, please e-mail Phillip right away so we can get it addressed.

THIS WEEK ONLY, all buyers (U.S. AND non-U.S.) must pay the actual cost of sending your order, plus $3 for the packaging materials (because we are only auctioning items that ship in very large oversized packages).
Why don't we have a "flat rate" for U.S. orders this week, like we do most weeks? Because we are selling oversized posters of all shapes and sizes which must be sent in "very oversized" flat packages which are much stronger than the ones used by most sellers (*read more about our packages that stand up to the greatest of abuse, and know that we wrap all expensive items in plastic, so that even a submerged package will likely arrive undamaged!). Shipping will vary greatly depending on how many items you get, what the weight of the items are, if they fit in the same package, and where you live. Generally it will cost $15 at the very least to send an oversized flat package anywhere in the U.S. by either U.S. mail or UPS, fully insured (all U.S. orders MUST be fully insured).
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 packages that other sellers use (both the free kind and the kind purchased at shipping supply stores), and the protection offered by those is spotty at best, so please do not ask us to use a lighter weight oversized flat package or less expensive packing materials to save on shipping, because we won't do it! We know that once you see our oversized flat packages 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 oversized flat packages (and if somehow you don't agree with us, we ask you not to bid at all!).

Will your order be shipped to you by UPS?
     UPS does NOT automatically require a signature to deliver packages, so if you want the signature to be required, you will need to pay the extra $3.00 UPS charges for "signature required" Delivery Confirmation, and please realize that they will then NOT leave the package, and you may well have to go to the UPS facility yourself to pick it up.  But if you prefer this, that is fine, and if you have any other special requirements, please tell us when you are paying for your order.  IF YOU DO NOT SPECIFY THAT YOU WANT SIGNATURE REQUIRED, THEN YOUR PACKAGE WILL BE SENT WITHOUT SIGNATURE REQUIRED!

You CAN usually combine shipment!

NOTE: These Sunday items need to be sent in oversized flat packages so... *they can be combined with these auctions: Sunday October 16th 'regular' Sunday auctions Tuesday October 18th folded one-sheets Thursday October 20th complete and incomplete sets of lobby cards Sunday October 23rd 'regular' Sunday auctions Tuesday November 1st Part II of our 12th Annual Halloween Auction Thursday November 3rd Part III of our 12th Annual Halloween Auction (flat items only) *they must be sent separately from these auctions for an additional shipping charge: Sunday October 16th & 23rd 'bulk lot' Sunday auctions Tuesday October 11th rolled non-U.S. posters Thursday October 13th rolled 27" x 40" one-sheets Tuesday October 25th rolled non-U.S. posters Thursday October 27th British quads and larger rolled posters Sunday October 30th Part I of our 12th Annual Halloween Auction Thursday November 3rd Part III of our 12th Annual Halloween Auction (rolled items)

Note that we not only allow you to combine as many items as you want from a single set of 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 five 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 (both within and outside the U.S.). We only add $3 for packaging materials (and on a week like this, when we use very large flat packages, the $3 usually does not come close to covering the cost of those materials).

Non-U.S. buyers must pay the actual cost of shipping their order (you can choose whatever method you prefer), plus $3 for packaging materials. 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. KNOW THAT IT CAN BE BETWEEN SOMEWHAT EXPENSIVE AND EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE TO SEND THESE OVERSIZED ITEMS OUTSIDE THE U.S. We do not make a penny on the shipping (because we charge the actual cost), BUT PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THE SUBSTANTIAL ADDED SHIPPING COSTS BEFORE YOU PLACE A BID ON THESE ITEMS!

Have you heard about our Pay and Hold Program?
This lets non-U.S. buyers pay for their purchases from 4 consecutive weeks (a total of 12 auctions and around 8,000+ items!), and we then send all your purchases at once saving you LOTS of money!  Click HERE to learn more about becoming one of the hundreds of our non-U.S. buyers who are already part of this program.

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.
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 (both within and outside the U.S.). We only add $3 for packaging materials (and on a week like this, when we use very large flat packages, the $3 usually does not come close to covering the cost of those materials). KNOW THAT THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT IN REGARDS TO ORDERS SENT OUTSIDE THE U.S., BECAUSE SENDING EXTREMELY LARGE FLAT PACKAGES CAN BE VERY EXPENSIVE (so bear this in mind BEFORE placing a bid on any of these items).
