Joe, I should have contacted you before now, but I saw one of the Cleopatra digests just two days ago on ebay. If it didn't sell, I'm sure that it will be back on again shortly.

Posted by Joe Caruso (Member # 11) on January 29, 2007, 03:52 PM:

Thanks, Osi, I tried for CLEOPATRA, but again was beaten to the Pharoah's throne; DESTINY OF CLEOPATRA has not surfaced as of late, I check daily for my wants, but I still long for the days of writing a letter to a collector from want-ads, receiving a list and calling or writing back to say what I'd like, then simplysend the money order - Sometimes when not in one's favor, this bidding escalates far and away - That is one reason why I thoroughly miss "live" shows and earnestly want to bring one back to the fold

I'm looking for a 400' print of Karloff's THE MUMMY as well. If anyone else has a print they would like to part with please let me know.

I'm very happy because I won The Mummy 400'er on Ebay! OK, at $80+ it wasn't exactly a steal but I have been looking for a print forever... Now I just have to find the 400'of Frankentsein Meets the Wolfman...

Posted by Peter Richards (Member # 738) on February 11, 2007, 02:07 PM:

Congratulations Brian,i put a couple of bids in but it went to high for me.

I bought the 400' edition of The Wolfman from this seller and it was a superb print and came complete with 2 trailers before the main feature.

So expect to be very happy with your purchase [Smile]

Posted by Brian Hendel (Member # 61) on February 12, 2007, 10:15 AM:

That sounds great! I can't wait to get the film now.

Posted by Brian Hendel (Member # 61) on February 20, 2007, 08:49 PM:

Received the MUMMY print today and it's gorgeous - like new! I love it so much I had to share it...

Posted by Peter Richards (Member # 738) on February 21, 2007, 04:47 AM:

Hi Brian,That's great news [Smile]

What did you think of this edit over the 200' edition.

Posted by Brian Hendel (Member # 61) on February 22, 2007, 07:38 AM:

I think both the 200' and the 400' are very well edited. The 200'er goes by a little too quick for my taste... so I would have to say I prefer the 400'er.

Posted by Peter Richards (Member # 738) on February 22, 2007, 10:11 AM:

I have to agree, the 200' edition is a great edit and i'll keep my eyes peeled for the 400' edition although if you've been looking for it forever then i expect a long wait [Frown]

Well Brian,How about a review of the Mummy 400ft?.Andy.

Posted by Brian Hendel (Member # 61) on February 27, 2007, 08:14 PM:

OK, I'll write a Mummy 400' review as soon as I have a little free time. I've just been too busy working for any fun stuff.

Posted by Peter Richards (Member # 738) on March 06, 2007, 06:16 AM:

Brian and you thought you bid high,look at these idiots

Posted by Philippe Cuypers (Member # 55) on March 06, 2007, 07:46 AM:

you know I noticed that its this guy who bid on most of this super 8 sound monsters films (twallen) ?? maybe just maybe ebay send once in a while people like this guy to up!!! the price! although I had a couple of these mummy and I sold one years ago for a lot of money but of course all mine was brand new never been touch with the human hand so ! its realy weird how ebay is up or down, my 2cent phil

Posted by Peter Richards (Member # 738) on March 06, 2007, 08:32 AM:

Maybe your right Phil and he's an ebay robot of some kind,what puzzles me most about "tvallen" is that he buys multiples of the same film - it's all very strange [Confused]

Posted by Philippe Cuypers (Member # 55) on March 06, 2007, 09:18 AM:

Yes peter you are right it is puzzles?? for me tto!! But you know what per his feedback if you look I thing is a dealer (how to make a quick buck!! whe never see this guy he seems to come out of the woodwork from a coupel months now, and yes he buys multiple its a lot of money ??? well thats ebay for you phil [Roll Eyes]
