Our Summer 2010 Mini/Major Auction has an
incredible selection of posters (around 900 items in all!),
covering all years and many different countries including exceptional
linenbacked, paperbacked, and unbacked items and is being run in three parts:
-
Part I (Tuesday
July 27th to August 3rd): 313 backed and unbacked inserts, window cards,
half-sheets, lobby cards, campaign books, pressbooks & more
-
Part II (Thursday
July 29th to August 5th): 378 LINENBACKED posters (one-sheet size
and smaller)
-
Part III (Sunday August 1st to August 8th): hundreds of unbacked
"rolled" posters & oversized linenbacked posters
What distinguishes OUR Mini/Major Auctions from
other major auctions? Only the lack of any reserves or buyers premiums,
honest condition grading, and unenhanced super-sized images! You will
find an amazing "supermarket" selection of great posters from all years, genres, and
countries!
SPECIAL
BONUS OFFER TO EVERY BUYER IN THESE AUCTIONS!
INCREDIBLE!
Every buyer from ANY of the parts of our "Summer 2010 Mini/Major Auction" receives
a great full-color printed t-shirt as a free bonus (even if you only purchase one
item)! Â Â Â Â Every buyer in this special auction will receive the great full-color
T-shirt pictured at right, which shows the image from the Gilda style B
one-sheet poster included in this auction (we
will only be making as many t-shirts as there are different buyers in these auctions, so
it will be a VERY limited edition, and likely will become a
"collector's item" in its own right!). Given that you get this great full-color
T-shirt with any purchase, shouldn't you absolutely find any one item to
purchase from us from among the 900+ items in these
special auctions?
  Â
*Note: we give this shirt (which costs
us $9 to $11 each at wholesale, because they are very high quality) to anyone
who purchases one or more items in these auctions.
BUT KNOW THAT YOU ONLY GET ONE SHIRT, NO MATTER HOW MANY ITEMS
YOU PURCHASE, AND WHETHER OR NOT YOU PURCHASE FROM ONE OR ALL OF THE PARTS OF
THIS SPECIAL AUCTION.
    Â
Please also note that, because some of the
posters in this auction are un-backed and rolled, we will NOT send the
t-shirt together with your purchase if you purchase only rolled unbacked items.
In that case only, we will hold it on your account, and we will add it to the next flat
package you receive from us. But if you purchase items that CAN
have a t-shirt included with them, then we will include the shirt with your
purchases.
BUT WAIT, THERE'S EVEN MORE!Â
The above offer is for anyone who purchases any ONE item from either
part of this mini/major auction. But if you are a member of our
weekly e-mail club,
we will be offering our most generous bonus offers ever to those who purchase
just FIVE items from either or both of the two parts combined (you need
just purchase a total of five items from both parts). We will have
multiple great offers for those who purchase as few as five items, and as many
as twelve or more, and you get these just for being a member of the club (so if
you are not already a member, and over 6,368 collectors already are, then why
not join today by going to

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUYING A PAPERBACKED OR LINENBACKED POSTER FROM
EMOVIEPOSTER.COM AND FROM BUYING ONE FROM ANYWHERE ELSE? Â Â Â
The great plus about buying a paperbacked or linenbacked poster from eMoviePoster.com is
that you have an assurance of "genuine-ness" and you know the amount of
restoration the poster has had, and you know the quality of the restoration,
WHICH IS TRUE OF VERY FEW AUCTIONS OTHER EMOVIEPOSTER.COM!Â
    Not only did we extremely carefully check every single
backed poster we are auctioning to make certain that it is a genuine
poster that has had only the restoration we describe (and in many cases we
saw the poster prior to backing), but we also give an ironclad 100%
money back guarantee if any of the backed posters we auction ever prove
to not be genuine. Other auctioneers may SAY they have a
similar guarantee, but do you really want to hope that they will honor
it (plus, there is every possibility that by the time you discover a problem
with one of their posters, they may well have "moved on" to auctioning other
kinds of items, and with eMoviePoster.com, you KNOW that we have done
nothing but auction movie posters for over 20 years, and we are definitely
not going anywhere)!
    And when the day comes that you want to re-sell a
backed poster in your collection, it will make a big difference if you
can say that you purchased it from eMoviePoster.com, because then others
will also know that it is surely genuine and accurately described (assuming
you reuse our condition description and/or our image [we will provide the
purchaser of any item our unwatermarked image of the item they purchased, if
they request it])!

U.S. Shipping Details IN THIS SET OF AUCTIONS
ONLY
(Part II of our Summer 2010 Mini/Major Auction), all buyers (U.S. AND non-U.S.) must pay the
actual cost of
sending your order, plus $2 for the packaging materials.
    IMPORTANT!
In the past, many of our "mini/major" auctions solely consisted of
linenbacked posters, so we could pack all of the orders in just a few extra
days, even though many were expensive. BUT IN THIS SUMMER 2010
MINI/MAJOR AUCTION, WE INCLUDE ALL DIFFERENT SIZES OF ITEMS (from lobby
cards to linenbacked six-sheets), AND SOME OF THE ITEMS ARE UNBACKED AND
FOLDED, SOME ARE UNBACKED AND ROLLED, SOME NEED TO GO IN LARGE FLAT
PACKAGES, AND MANY ARE PAPERBACKED OR LINENBACKED!
     This means that there is NO WAY we can
possibly pack all of the orders in just a few days, especially since there
are over 900 items in all. So we will be packing and shipping the
items from this auction in the following manner:
    1) After the Part I items close on the 3rd, we will
divide all of the items according to who bought what, but we will NOT
pack them (we will repeat the procedure for the items that close on the 5th
and the 8th).
    2) We will begin packing all of the orders (combining
everyone's purchases from all three parts) on Monday, August 9th. At
that point, everyone should have sent us their mailing addresses, and we
will begin e-mailing shipping quotes to all buyers on the 9th, but we will
not be finished sending shipping quotes until the end of that week, at the
earliest, due to the many hundreds of expensive packages we must create (and
we will use our usual high quality standards to make sure that nothing
arrives damaged!).
    3) This means that most orders will not ship until the
week of August 16th, but we will of course make every effort to send all the
orders out as soon as we can. You can do your part to help us by
sending us your mailing address as soon as possible after you are done
purchasing, and by quickly paying once we send you your shipping quotes.
    4) What if you want your order sent more quickly?Â
We have our special "rush fee", which allows you to pay us $15 extra, and
then we move your order to the "top of the stack". If you have an
urgent need to get your purchases quickly, then take advantage of this, or
else wait until we process your order.
    5) THERE IS ONE EXCEPTION TO THE ABOVE! If
you purchase items from Part I only, and you know for certain that you will
not purchase any additional items in Part II or Part III, then you should
contact us with your mailing address on Wednesday, August 4th, and clearly
state that you will not be purchasing any additional items, and then we will
pack your order and get you your shipping quotes on Thursday or Friday.Â
But know that once your order is packed, it CAN'T be re-opened to add
additional purchases, so solely contact us on the 4th if you are absolutely
certain you are not purchasing from Part II or Part III.
    6) It is very complicated and nerve-wracking to pack
hundreds of thousands of dollars of expensive posters and lobby cards in
such a short time, and the above method will allow us to do so in the most
efficient manner. Please be understanding of our need to take this
extra time to pack such complicated items. If you have an urgent need
to get your items, you can use our special "$15 rush fee" (details of this
will be sent to you in your end of auction notification).
    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, but many of
the items in Part I and III need to be sent in different types of packages
which means that we can NOT tell you what your order can be
combined with until we know exactly what you purchased from all three
parts (and if you also purchase items from Part I or Part III, we will pack them in
as few packages as possible). |
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 CURRENT ITEMS IN THESE MINI/MAJOR AUCTIONS UNLESS YOU WILL PAY THE ACTUAL COST OF SHIPPING PLUS $2 FOR
PACKAGING MATERIALS (and remember this also applies to U.S. buyers, this
week only)!
|
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.
    IMPORTANT! In
the past, many of our "mini/major" auctions solely consisted of linenbacked
posters, so we could pack all of the orders in just a few extra days, even
though many were expensive. BUT IN THIS SUMMER 2010 MINI/MAJOR
AUCTION, WE INCLUDE ALL DIFFERENT SIZES OF ITEMS (from lobby cards to
linenbacked six-sheets), AND SOME OF THE ITEMS ARE UNBACKED AND FOLDED,
SOME ARE UNBACKED AND ROLLED, SOME NEED TO GO IN LARGE FLAT PACKAGES, AND

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 (if you are not one of the hundreds of our
non-U.S. buyers who are already part of this program)
Here is a chart
containing estimated shipping charges for up to three one-sheet size or
smaller items from this
week's auctions. IMPORTANT! These quotes are
for linen posters that are one-sheet size or smaller.
(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 set
of auctions will be sent rolled in tubes, so
you can sometimes add items that can also be sent
in the same types of package for no additional shipping costs. We have noted below whether the items can be shipped rolled or not.
