About This Week's Items
     Note that this is a "catch-all" week, where we auction items that DO fit in our standard sized mailers, but are NOT posters (mostly heralds, pressbooks, sheet music, program books, but also some odd sized items like mini window cards, small Japanese chirashis, special odd sized still sets, and other unusual items). We have enough of these items for this week's auction and one more, but all of the remaining items are NOT the same types of items as the ones we are selling this week.
     So if you like any of the sizes and types of items we are auctioning this week, know that we have not sold these types of items for quite some time, and we likely will not sell them again for a long time! If you think you don't have any particular collecting interest in these sizes, you SHOULD still look them over carefully, because they often provide one of the absolute most affordable ways of getting an original first release item from titles that otherwise sell for "out of this world" prices! You will find first release heralds, sheet music, and other items from such beloved classics as Casablanca, The Wizard Of Oz, Snow White, and many many more, and quite often they can be purchased for just a fraction of the cost of an original lobby card or poster (sometimes just $10 or $20 for a classic title, and sometimes just a dollar or two for many 1930s titles!).
     One final note: Most of the items we are auctioning this week are roughly 11" x 14" (either as they are, or when they are folded). SOME of the items (mostly the U.S. heralds, the Spanish heralds, and some of the rest of the items) are quite a bit smaller. We are charging our standard $9 U.S. shipping this week, but if you solely purchased smaller items, and you DON'T want the free book we are giving this week, then let us know that, and we can package the item much smaller, and we will only charge you the lower shipping rate. This is especially important if you live outside the U.S. (on non-U.S. orders, we will NOT pack the free book in with your items unless you specifically request us to do so, so if you live outside the U.S. and DO want the free book, you should tell us that).

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", and "good", with only a few graded "fair" or lesser) along with more details about the condition described in words (but pretty much a general description of the defects, and we only describe specific defects if they are the type 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)!
 

IMPORTANT NOTE! Most of the items we are auctioning this week are roughly 11" x 14" (either as they are, or when they are folded). SOME of the items (mostly the U.S. heralds, the Spanish heralds, and some of the rest of the items) are quite a bit smaller. We are charging our standard $9 U.S. shipping this week, but if you solely purchased smaller items, and you DON'T want the free book we are giving this week, then let us know that, and we can package the item much smaller, and we will only charge you the lower shipping rate.

Why do we charge $9, when we used to charge $9 to $11 on eBay?
     We spend $9 (or more) on almost all U.S. orders, because we use such good, heavy packaging (at least twice as strong as that used by most sellers), even on low priced orders (because we believe a low priced item still deserves the best handling)!
     We USED to charge $11 for shipping on U.S. orders over $100 when we sold on eBay, but now that we are auctioning on our own site we have lowered that to $9, which is both our way of thanking those who order a lot from us, and also our way of passing on our savings from not paying eBay commissions to our customers!

You CAN usually combine shipment!
(NOTE: This week's Tuesday items must be sent in flat packages and can NOT be combined with the rolled non-U.S. posters we sold on 10/14 and can NOT be combined with the Arthouse one-sheets that we will be auctioning 10/16, but CAN be combined with the still lots and Halloween Part I items we will be auctioning between 10/16 and 10/28, and can probably NOT be combined with the items in Halloween Part II that we will be auctioning between 10/23 and 10/30)
     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 $9 U.S. SHIPPING CHARGE).

DON'T BID ON OUR ITEMS UNLESS YOU WILL PAY THE $9 U.S. 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.

IMPORTANT NOTE! Most of the items we are auctioning this week are roughly 11" x 14" (either as they are, or when they are folded). SOME of the items (mostly the U.S. heralds, the Spanish heralds, and some of the rest of the items) are quite a bit smaller. This is especially important if you live outside the U.S. (on non-U.S. orders, we will NOT pack the free book in with your items unless you specifically request us to do so, so if you live outside the U.S. and DO want the free book, you should tell us that).

IMPORTANT! NOTE THAT WE GIVING A BONUS BOOK (Vintage Hollywood Posters IX) TO ALL OF OUR BUYERS THIS WEEK, as a way to encourage bidders to participate in our auctions and to thank our customers for their support! However please note that for non-U.S. buyers, we can only include the bonus book with non-U.S. orders if the buyer is willing to pay the roughly $10 or more added shipping charge (because the book will add around 1 pound to the weight of the package!).

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.)!
