Poster size as described BUT
Poster size as described! 3 stars owing to a few slight dents in poster - top & bottom! (Assume they came when getting inserted into tube) Also was shocked at postage price because NOT showing until arrive on Paypal processing page. No surprise if postage showed prior on product page. Wanted poster, so no choice except to pay postage fee.
++++++++++++
ADDENDUM (replying to seller's reply)
I was going to reply the seller's demanding, begging email they sent me requesting that I change my review contents, and they included their screencaptures that somehow did not match my ordering screencaptures. Consequently, I will briefly reply publicly instead because I refused to be bullied into: 1) removing this observational review or 2) stand by and be accused of lying
FEW DENTS ON POSTER: Poster image itself is fine and the slight observational dents are on the white edge borders of the image. Again, I assume these arose when being packaged into the talked about cube.
PRICE PAID: What do you expect to achieve by revealing the poster price + postage price here? You got paid x2 right? I know what I saw (or according to you - didn't see) during the ordering process and the Paypal payment page was the first time I saw the postage price which was more than I expected BUT with the increase in prices all round, I continued the order. Also, you've listed some of the 'important details' for processing this order. I'm left wondering why did you omit what you had for breakfast that day or the exact location you packaged this order? Could go on with your omitted reasoning but certain you get the gist of what I'm getting at, and saying here, because I do not see the relevance in detailing the reason for postage price and process. I was surprised AND still paid. Therefore even if it was a £5, £15 or £20 postage price, you would have got postage payment because I wanted the poster.
21 YEAR OLD POSTER: In my view, the condition of poster does not reflect this stated age and contradicting your psychic know-it-all abilities, "...it was unrealistic to expect this item to be in perfect condition..." actually, the poster surpassed my expectation because it looks new. Also it looks fab in it's frame too - that hides the slight mentioned dents.
YOUR EVIDENCE: "...we photographed the condition very clearly prior to purchase + we are extremely careful when putting posters into tubes and that damage can never be caused this way + Reviews like this which are not truthful ..." is calling me a liar, hence the reason this review stays with this added response addendum (16Nov22)
"WOULD ASK PEOPLE NOT TO MAKE INCORRECT ASSUMPTIONS PLEASE": Applies to OriginalPoster.co.uk owners too?
SUGGESTION GOING FORWARD: Adjust your aftersales tone and approach to reflect your so called 'excellent reputation'. Begging, bullying and calling me a liar, does not work with me!

Glad that we have the right of reply to this review which we consider to be unfair. The few slight dents on the poster can be clearly seen on the large photo of the poster on the website which this customer had clearly seen prior to ordering. We would like to reassure our customers that we are extremely careful when putting posters into tubes and that damage can never be caused this way. It is also not true to say that the postage price does not show on the website before the Paypal processing page. Postage and packing to the UK is £10 and clearly stated. In this case this included a very sturdy tube, tracked postage, packing materials, a trip to the post office and supply of tracking details. Th customer bought a rolled poster which was 21 years old, second hand and priced at £24 - it was unrealistic to expect this item to be in perfect condition and we photographed the condition very clearly prior to purchase. Reviews like this which are not truthful can be damaging to the excellent reputation of businesses and we would ask people not to make incorrect assumptions please.

We are very grateful for the review which will reassure other potential customers when they are considering a purchase. Film posters and lobby cards look so much better in the flesh than they do on the website and there's nothing better than opening up a film poster and being amazed at the colour and detail. Thanks for your review.

I am a big collector of Audie Murphy…
I am a big collector of Audie Murphy Movie material. I have collected 96% US posters and Lobby Cards. I have about 75% of the British Quads. This Quad will be added to my collection. I am on the Board of the Audie Murphy American Cotton Museum in Greenville Texas. Once a year we have an Audie Murphy Day Event. I display a lot of my collection.

Really happy that we have managed to supply an Audie Murphy poster that you didn't have. We will have a look for some more Audie Murphy posters and lobby cards to tempt you! Great to hear that you display your collection - if it wasn't for collectors like yourself then much of this historic and interesting material would be lost forever.
Kind Regards,

We've spent a lifetime collecting and sourcing film posters for what started when the internet started as a website to inform and pay tribute to film posters being a reference site only in the beginning with no sales. This has now developed into a business and we are proud of our choice of posters for sale.
Thank you for your review.
