Incredible Bonus Offer!

YOU GET FIVE BONUS UNIVERSAL MASTERPRINTS WITH
YOUR TUESDAY PURCHASES FROM US THIS WEEK!

Because all of our items are very oversized this week (and require extra-large stronger than usual packaging that costs more than usual to send), we need to charge $10 U.S. shipping (normally we charge $15 for an "oversized" auction, but we are making this incredible discounted shipping offer to U.S. buyers this week).  We know that everybody hates to pay ANY shipping, so to offset that we offer five great BONUS items to every buyer!  You get five different samples of the great licensed Universal Masterprints which regularly retail for $14.99 each (we will likely include TWO classic 1930s titles, ONE classic 1950s title, ONE classic 1960s title, and ONE modern title; some buyers will receive the five pictured above, but most buyers will get different ones, AND NO REQUESTS, PLEASE!). These were printed with the best quality of any repros we have seen! 

They are NOT laser copies, but are actual printed posters, authorized by Universal Studios, and they will never be reprinted!  Note that the FIVE sample Masterprints will NOT include the plastic sleeves that sometimes come with the Masterprints when you buy them individually.  We think that once you see how great the printing is, you will think they were an incredible bargain, and we feel that the 5 of these are certainly more than worth the $10 you will pay for shipping your order, if you live in the U.S.. NOTE: WE WILL PUT YOUR PURCHASES BETWEEN HEAVY BOARDS, AND THAT WE WILL TAPE THE MASTERPRINTS TO THE OUTSIDE OF ONE OF THE BOARDS, SO DON'T BE CONFUSED WHEN YOU OPEN YOUR ORDER, BECAUSE YOU NEED TO LOOK FOR YOUR PURCHASE BETWEEN THE BOARDS!

IMPORTANT! KNOW THAT THIS IS ALMOST CERTAINLY THE VERY LAST TIME WE WILL EVER BE ABLE TO GIVE AWAY MASTERPRINTS, AS OUR SUPPLY IS VERY LIMITED!


Special Notes About This Tuesday's Items

A Special Note About Our Current 800 Items:
     All of the posters we are currently auctioning are "very oversized", meaning that they can't be sent in our regular standard-sized flat mailers (and NONE of them can be rolled in a tube). There are possibly a few exceptions (see our shipping section below). This means you mostly will have to pay greater than normal shipping (especially if you live outside the U.S., as the U.S. Post Office has increased their rates), but we try to offset that by giving you five cool bonus Universal Masterprints for NO additional charge.


About the Condition

     Note that we give a detailed overall condition grade to every item we sell ("fine", "very good to fine", "very good", "good to very good", "good", and "fair", with only a few graded "poor") along with more details about the condition described in words (but pretty much only if they are defects that CAN'T be seen in our super-sized images, or if the item is especially valuable).  We felt this would help bidders identify items they want to bid on more easily.  Of course, 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 poster for minor defects that we did NOT describe.


Payment Options
We accept all major credit cards, either directly over the phone at 417-256-9616 during our regular business hours which are Monday to Friday, 9 AM CST to 5 PM CST except between 12 and 1 when we take lunch, or you can e-mail us 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"), that is fine, but know that PayPal has many glitches, and you should ABSOLUTELY e-mail us separately when you send us a PayPal payment!

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 (unlike SOME auction sites, we are not prejudiced against Western Union!).  But please don't send cash (as we can't be responsible for lost cash)!
 


U.S. Shipping Details

As a special offer to our customers, U.S. buyers need to enclose $10 shipping no matter how many items you win!

Why $10 shipping this week?

     This week only (because we are selling "oversized" posters which do not fit in our standard mailers, and will need to be sent in large oversized mailers, or between six heavy pieces of large cardboard), all U.S. buyers must pay a total of $10 (ten) shipping, whether you buy 1 item or 100 (or any number in-between).  Note that we FULLY INSURE EVERY U.S. order we send! We will spend the shipping collected on virtually all orders, and we spend far more on those that involve lots of items and high dollar items.

A few of the posters this week are not oversized!
    
Note that a few of the posters we are selling this week are not technically "oversized", because they can be folded down to a size that fits in our standard mailers. But there are relatively few of these, and since we only now charge $1 extra for U.S. shipping ($10 versus $9), we don't want to fold those items (thus reinforcing creases that have been greatly diminished) to save $1, so ALL U.S. buyers will pay $10 shipping on items from this set of auctions!

WE ARE NOT TRYING TO MAKE MONEY ON SHIPPING! 
    
In fact, when we sold these sizes of posters on eBay in the past, we charged $15 for U.S. shipping, but we are making this special "$10 U.S. shipping" offer this week, as a special discount to our buyers in these new auctions on our site, even though this means we will lose money on shipping virtually every U.S. package!

You CAN usually combine shipment!
(NOTE: This week's Tuesday items must be sent in "oversized" flat packages and they can NOT be combined with the rolled one-sheets we are selling September 11th, but CAN be combined with the title lobby cards we sold September 9th as well as with the "oversized" items we are selling on September 18th)
     Note that we not only allow you to combine as many items as you want from a single week, and still pay only a single shipping charge for all of the items, but we also allow you to wait until next week's auctions end so that you can combine your current purchases with those of our following auctions (if possible), and since we do two sets of auctions every week, that means there is a chance you could combine items from up to four 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 $10 U.S. SHIPPING CHARGE).

DON'T BID ON OUR ITEMS UNLESS YOU WILL PAY THE $10 U.S. 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.  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.

A few of the posters this week are not oversized!
    
Note that a few of the posters we are selling this week are not technically "oversized", because they can be folded down to a size that fits in our standard mailers. But there are relatively few of these, and since we only now charge $1 extra for U.S. shipping ($10 versus $9), we don't want to fold those items (thus reinforcing creases that have been greatly diminished) to save $1! The only exception to this is when one of these posters is purchased by someone from outside the U.S., because the difference between sending a standard sized package and an oversized package can be $15 or $20.
     But since there are not many of these posters, we will leave it up to our non-U.S. buyers to let us know (if they solely purchased one poster) if they would prefer their item to be packaged in a standard mailer to save money on shipping (but they would then not get the free Masterprints, and of course many of the posters CAN'T be sent in a standard mailer without damaging them).

Here is a chart containing estimated shipping charges for up to 3 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)

Type of Shipping Canada/Mexico Australian/Asia/Japan Everywhere Else (inc Europe)
Airmail - Uninsured $23.20 / $28.75 $38.00 $36.00
Airmail - Insured 25.10 / N/A 41.20 39.20
Global Express - Insured 40.90 / N/A 45.95 47.95
Global Express - Uninsured 39.00 / 41.00 43.25 45.25
First Class N/A N/A N/A

Do you have a friend or relative who lives in the United States? Some of our customers either visit the U.S. regularly, or have friends or relatives within the U.S., and often those customers have us send their orders to a U.S. address, and then they transport the posters from there. THIS CAN SAVE YOU A GREAT DEAL ON SHIPPING! This is fine with us, but realize that you still need to let us know within one week of receipt if you want to return anything, so don't use this method unless you are certain you will want to keep your purchases.

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.)!

IMPORTANT! WE ARE GIVING 5 UNIVERSAL MASTERPRINTS TO ALL BUYERS OF OUR AUCTIONS ENDING TUESDAY 9/16, as both a way to encourage bidders to participate in our auctions on our own site and a way to offset the higher cost of shipping these "oversized" items (we believe the five bonus items are worth the cost of shipping)! However please note that for non-U.S. buyers, we will include the five bonus Masterprints, but there is a slight chance that they will up the shipping weight to the next level, and cause added shipping, so if you are from outside the U.S. and DON'T want the Masterprints, let us know and we WON'T include them. We won't be making a single cent on shipping (unlike many major auction houses which charge OUTRAGEOUS inflated shipping charges). We just want to get back our actual cost of shipping and packaging materials.


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 mostly be sent rolled in tubes, so you can add any item that can easily be rolled for no additional shipping costs. We have noted in each paragraph below whether the items can be shipped rolled or not.
 
2008 Movie Poster Sales Results! (can be shipped rolled or flat)

This new edition includes 25,000 verified sales results from our 2007 sales and contains NO duplication to our previous editions! We are offering the brand new 2008 edition for the cover price of $10, or you can order it, plus the previous four editions for a total of $15, a great savings of $35 off of the combined cover prices! Go to our "Other Publications" books page at http://www.emovieposter.com/books/books.php?section=nonBruce to learn more and to order!

Illustration Magazines (can be shipped flat only)

Know that we also sell several other movie poster-related publications, so now is a good time to pick up items you may have missed! We have copies of a great full-color magazine entirely devoted to the great legendary poster artist, Bob Peak! This magazine (called Illustration Magazine #6) has tons of full-color images, all shot directly from Peak's originals, and has a great in-depth overview of Peak's entire career, written by his son! It sells for $9 and it is almost completely sold out, but if you want a copy, just enclose $9 with your order! We also have copies of Illustration Magazine #7, which has a long article on master horror/sci-fi illustrator Reynold Brown, with many full-color images shot directly from his originals, and that issue is also just $9.

Movie Collectors World (can be shipped rolled or flat)

We also offer the latest issue of Movie Collectors World to all our buyers (the latest is the October issue, which we just received). This magazine has been published for over 30 years and is the "Bible" of the movie poster collecting hobby! The cover price is $3.00. If you want a copy of the October issue added to your order for $3.00 (with NO additional shipping), just let us know when you pay for your order and we will include it!
 

Fixed Price Posters (most can be shipped rolled but not all can be sent flat; if an item has a "UF" or "TF" in the description, it can only be shipped rolled, but if it has a "FF" in the description, it can likely be sent rolled or flat; please check with us if you are unsure)

WE CURRENTLY HAVE 143 MOVIE POSTERS ON OUR WEBSITE AS "FIXED PRICE" ITEMS!
Click HERE to view these Fixed Price posters on our website (many of them are one-sheets). If we can combine any of the Fixed Price items with your current purchases into a single package, then we won't charge you any added shipping!
