They probably thought you were Rupp.

 

I'm guessing that means something to you, Rupp and movie posters?

A hint perhaps to those of us who aren't Rupp (shrug)

He's been convinced that the mods are out to get him, deleting his threads for no good reason, etc.

 

Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not out to get you...

 

Who wrote that?

KC!!

Arch once wrote something about some things not getting noticed and other things are because people notify.

 

I don't remember where it was, but it was long. Hope you sell them quickly somewhere :wishluck:

 

It's all good - thanks again. (thumbs u

I stuck up some movie posters for "r" rated films.

There was no nudity or bad language.

 

It went poof - no message, just poof.

 

Any reason?

 

They showed nothing risqué and were in the 'misc' area - at least WHY they were removed would be nice.

You can sell DVDs there, so why not film related posters?

 

Mods?

 

 

 

I know I've seen movie posters for 300 and Kick for sale on this site, both are R-rated but both are obviously comic related.

 

What were the movie titles? Just mainstream stuff?

Were they comic book related? because rule #1 says.

 

"Books must be CGC or raw only, or items directly related to comics."

 

 

I really have to disagree with this concept in general.

 

CGC certifies both movie lobby cards:

http://www.certifiedguaranty.com/lobby-card-grading.aspx

 

and certifies movie still photographs here:

http://www.certifiedguaranty.com/CGC-Photograph-Grading.aspx

 

They are advertised on the CGC web site. Yet CGC has decided to apparently ignore their own services on these boards.

 

A couple of years ago I had compiled a lot of info on movie paper and asked Arch if a place could be made for the CGC movie paper. Never heard a word back, which was answer enough for me.

Are PGX books advertised in the ebay banner at the bottom of the page? Can you sell those on the CGC boards?

Lets all go and pay $135 to rent three videos

Seriously.

You seem to have missed the fact that the lobby cards and move still are a PART of CGC. As you can see here:

Lipstick was one, the other 2 were 1970's soft-core stuff - but as Sharon stated, they weren't comic related in anyway, so out they went.

 

Rules are the rules - it's no problem so I understand why they were booted.

It's all good, I'll try them somewhere else. (thumbs u

Nope. Only streamable - for 6 months maybe longer.

Yes, they are. As are 1/2 sheets, 1-sheets, window cards, inserts, 3-sheets and six-sheets.

There you have it: Andy there is your answer - don't call them movie posters - sell them as lobby cards and everything will be fine.

CBT's taking it very well. :baiting:

 

I pulled my previous :takeit: 's from my browser's cache and was able to post them immediately upon the buyer re-making the thread, so i didnt lose any books. I then read that the seller was not attempting to maintain the original sales because he had been away and had no way of knowing who claimed one. Once I read that, I threw in another 4-5 books I hadnt won the first time.

 

I would happily have let them go to the original winners if the mods had restored the original thread.

I enjoyed beating you to the Ms Marvel #1 more

than winning the book itself. :baiting:

 

My gloating was premature

 

Oh well, next time.

No Speedy ... that is not correct.

 

I have never thought the mods were out to get me.

 

I do believe that moderation on the CGC boards shows extreme favoritism based on the individual boardie based on who they are (or think they are).

 

Some rules apply to some and don't apply to others... is all I've ever really complained about. ;)

 

Moderation is getting better at answering questions and getting back to the lower tier boardie though.

 

The answer I received as to why my first attempt at CT 18.5 was pulled was because I used the words "carried", "over", "from", "place", "to", "not", "be", and "named" are too descriptive of terms to put in a thread title and shine promotional light on the competitive forces of CGC and the CGC boards.

 

I'd say eventually those terms will soon be hidden by the same high tech, filter technology that will forever prevent us from offering praise to Mr. Giordano. :(

 

I would have called Dena... but my level of board membership hasn't allowed me access to her or any mod phone numbers yet... but I'm hoping one day :wishluck:

 

xxx ooo

I must be totally dense...because I can't understand why you would use those terms if you thought a place couldn't be named? It's not like you didn't know.

 

It's pushing the envelope, why do it ? Or rather, if you are going to do it, why get upset if it's pulled?

 

You remind me of Stu, he can't help pushing envelopes, he LOVES it...then again, he's been banned a zillion times ...but he doesn't get upset...and I'm always telling him :makepoint::makepoint:

Thanks again for your input Sharon.

 

Again, I never thought it was that big of a deal... but obviously it is... and CT 18.6 was changed accordingly.

 

It's not like I said "or will be moving elsewhere" or "to sell at another venue". Maybe "these didn't sell the first time not here"? How about "these didn't sell on Ebay so I brought them here"?

 

You have to admit, there is little difference in the above terms.

 

I do wish I could get out of your crosshairs Sharon. It does seem like every complaint I have had lately, you are quick to comment.

 

Whatever slight you perceive I have done against you, I apologize. Perhaps if we become better friends, it will allow you to see what others do as well and you won't be so biased. :foryou:
