Our Summer 2011 Mini/Major Auction has an incredible selection of posters (1500+ items in all!), covering all years, genres, and sizes and is being run in three parts:

• Part I (Sunday May 29th to June 12th): 605 LINENBACKED U.S., non-U.S. and non-movie posters
• Part II (Tuesday May 31st to June 14th): UNBACKED and PAPERBACKED posters, choice lobby cards, & an incredible 3-D collection
• Part III (Thursday June 2nd to June 16th): hundreds of "oversized" LINENBACKED and UNBACKED posters of all types

IMPORTANT! We will close from Monday June 6th to Friday June 10th, and yet our auctions will continue while we are closed!
     How is this possible? Because the week before we close we will start the three parts of the Summer 2011 Mini/Major Auction, and each of those parts will be online for TWO weeks instead of one, so those auctions will continue during the week we are closed, and then each of the three parts will close on the week we return!

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 2011 Mini/Major Auction " receives a great full-color printed t-shirt as a free bonus (even if you only purchase one $1 item)!
     Every buyer in this special auction will receive the great full-color T-shirt pictured at right, which shows the image from the LAWRENCE OF ARABIA pre-awards "camel" one-sheet 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 1500+ items in these special auctions?
    *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 ANY OF THE PARTS OF THIS SPECIAL AUCTION.
      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 (either linenbacked or items that ship flat), then we will include the shirt with your purchases.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S EVEN MORE!  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 any of the three parts combined (you need just purchase a total of five items from any of the three 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 5,985 collectors already are, then why not join today by going to https://www.emovieposter.com/club/settings.php).

HERE IS A CHART OF THE ITEMS IN THIS AUCTION:
(to better help you find the sizes and countries that interest you)

Note that every item in Part I of our Summer 2011 Mini/Major Auction is linenbacked and must be shipped rolled in tubes (and because we never choose to combine linen and non-linen posters, the items in Part I must be shipped separate from most of the items in parts II, III, and IV, because only a few of those items are linenbacked).

2s001-2s006 Argentinean posters including FORBIDDEN PLANET
2s008-2s024 British quads including FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUYING A LINENBACKED POSTER FROM EMOVIEPOSTER.COM AND FROM BUYING ONE FROM ANYWHERE ELSE?
    The great plus about buying a 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 THAN EMOVIEPOSTER.COM! 
     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])!

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.

KNOW THAT IN THIS SET OF AUCTIONS ONLY (Part I of our Summer 2011 Mini/Major Auction), all of the items must be shipped rolled in tubes for the actual cost of sending your order (plus $2 for the packaging materials) for all customers.
     Missouri customers: You must pay an additional 7.162% sales tax on your purchases.  If your order is sent within the state of Missouri, we MUST collect this tax (if it is shipped to another state, we do not collect the tax).

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 in Part I of our Summer 2011 Mini/Major Auction can NOT be combined with any of our recent or current auctions because they are linenbacked and must be shipped rolled in tubes (and we hate to combine rolled backed items with rolled unbacked items because of the great chance of damage to the unbacked items). Note that there are SOME oversized linen posters in a later part of this auction that these items MAY be able to be combined with.

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!

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.

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)

     IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please bear these approximate shipping cost in mind BEFORE you 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!

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.)!
