Andrew did not trust and asked for projection shots...
I could have done it since September, but in the meantime I sold the print to a guy who "trusted" and is thanking me for the great print!
On eBay I have a 1037 score with 100% positive. But if anyone don't trust me, is free ... as I'm free to sell to anyone I want.
Thanks

Trust doesnt come into it with me with any seller.

How can anyone either trust or distrust anybody who they don't know anything about? It is impossible to gauge and therefore not even a sentiment I take into any account when purchasing privately from a complete stranger.

I simply always ask these days for a few screenshots from each reel of film from any private sale outside of the few individuals left in the hobby who i have a very good understanding with, therefore returning a highly unlikely disappointing print would never be an issue.

I can provide screenshots throughout any reel of any film i own and i have no intentions of selling any at this current time.
If i were in the market to begin selling any, providing any amount of reassurance to any potential buyer that they would ever wish for, would never be a problem.
For better, for worse.

The substance remains the one I have explain above. The rest are "chatting".

Hey, whoever has this one good luck, it is a great print and a great 80s action movie. We are lucky to have this one and are very pleased with it. [Wink]

Well said, Tom! [Wink]

Stefano's print may well be every bit as good as the day it was made.
Without any firm reassurances or detailed description of the print.
Without any screenshots to even begin to draw upon any of our own conclusions, we simply will never know.
These things are always subjective and for my own needs nowadays, i like complete transparancy in a deal where ever possible.

I find it simply saves on any disappointment or unpleasantries or wasted time should there just happen to be any unexpected surprises, especially for the more expensive later low fade feature prints.

Still only "chatting".
I told you the print stock.
The price was absolutely ONEST! Derann prints are often sold between 500 and 1000 euros, by now!
Anyway no problem: the fact is that i sold print and buyer is very happy!
To the next.

Since we're chatting.....There is absolutely nothing wrong with requesting screenshots. It takes the subjective opinion of what good condition is out of the equation and displays it for all possible buyers to see, which I believe is very useful.

As is stated in Forum Sales Rules: "Screen shots are also greatly appreciated!" It is, of course, up to the Seller.
