Some of my concerns that I have listed earlier, I repeat it here again. The posters are matt laminated.... I know what's normal lamination, but anybody seen matt laminated stuff before? My guess is that it most probably can't be folded or even rolled up. Pretty big piece of thing hanging on the wall which can't kept elsewhere easily.... I doubt it will be an easy task sending it overseas either. They are specially printed to order and we have to pay in advance first, so that's somewhere around S$800 or more. Pretty large sum of money to hand over to a single man without a guarantee that we will be given a proof of receipt or something like that.... We need to take extra precautions regarding payment issues. What say you, guys? |

Read the list and find out if there are others from your country. If there are, you can place the order together. That will save you on postage and bank fees for the transfer. |

Hai.... I truly apologise to everybody here for disclosing the contents of the emails on this forum and thus destroying this potential deal. It was my idea of maintaining transparency on the whole process and being accountable to all my forum mates. Looks like what I did is wrong (in other words, I messed up) and there is still much I need to learn in life. I will henceforth remove all previous email correspondence for the benefit of Thomas as he requested except for the following email and apologize to Thomas for that matter. It is my personal nature of be more sparing on dispensing trust and to take extra precaution, and it was not my intention to show "malice" to Thomas who had promptly replied to my emails with such details. Once again, I apologize to everybody. :huhuhu |

My email apology to Thomas. He may have deleted it without reading it, but it's okay....
As a form of respect to the man and his company, we should not indulge in any non-constructive discussions from this point onwards. If we was in his shoes, we would have done the same (by denying sales), and possibly likewise if he were in our position (expressing initial skepticism). |

I guess it can't be helped. :lol: don't worry too much about it kai. it was just unfortunate that casual forum speak vs the real business world is quite the mismatch still. i empathise both sides of this, since plan A failed, i have to do flare's 3x3 mini poster style. |

Thomas, if your reading this, please read on. I hope you understand where we're coming from. Perhaps for a director, $800 is not a large sum of money, but $40 for most of us students here, is a large sum of money, which can probably cover our meals for up to a week. Kai sen had initially posted the emails-exchange just to let us know how things are going and if we can lay our hands on the posters. If only you could come out with another way so we could know how the details without posting on the forum here. We were probably not doubting your honesty and your integrity, we were just being extra cautious. It's $800 we're talking about, not $8 not ruppiah. Honestly we would have prefered to mail the check to your office, or even go down personally to hand over the check. We would rather be safe than sorry. It's almost the same concept as if you would only send out the goods only after you've received the money, because your selling the goods to people you don't know. We feel the same way too. In the first place, how do we trust you when we don't even know you? And again, it's $800 we're talking about. Quote: No problem... If they don't deliver, we'll just bring them to CASE. Kai-san just keep the email exchange as evidence... Hahahaha I personally don't find anything wrong about this post. We'd be on the losing end if we do not keep any available evidences and risk our $800 just like that. Yes it's $800 we're talking about. We're just taking precautions. If you still think that we're questioning your intergrity, then so be it. We're just doing things to prevent ourselves from being taken advantage of. Again, it's $800 we're talking about. Note: This post was made on my own accord. It has nothing to do with YUI Lover. |

So uncle flare, it was you who said bring them to case. Really nothing wrong with that we're just taking precautionary measures. Kai-san it's not your fault as well. Rather call off the potential but seemingly dangerous deal than lose $800 at the end of the day. I believe my comments are sensible enough. If it does make Thomas feel bad, then he should start posting soon.. And eve actually had a point, that we should pass the check personally. |

of course he knows his way here... but who knows if he'll ever come back here :( hmm...i really dont understand why thomas is feeling as if we dont trust him a single bit.. we were just being precautious edit: something came to my mind... since it is a print to order poster... if we actually have a very good resolution movie poster pic or any other yui pics (like the original yui wallies)... we could actually go to some printing stores to print out posters~ (hah...just a little thought that came about frm my sister's sec sku art work which required printing of large glossy posters in the past) |

HA... Seems like my casual comment was at fault too, although i just meant that we are protected and thus need not worry, but i admit my phrasing wasn't perfect. Shucks... And i hereby make my apologies. Well, we could have gotten Thomas into some trouble with his superiors due to our casual handling of confidential information, and my loose comments. And i believe Thomas was going all out of his way to assist us with our perculiar request. They are a film distributor, not some movie memorabilia vendor. Thus we should save the harsh words, we were at fault too and myself significantly. And i hereby again offers my apologies. There is much to be learnt. |

It's not exactly within Thomas' duty to go through so much trouble just to get help us get the posters printed when LHP's main business is film distribution. He's already done a lot just by providing us the details, which we should appreciate. Let's just shelf this matter about the posters for the time being and get on with life. Such as diverting the $40 to other stuff like.... completing our personal collection of YUI's CDs? Back to the topic on printing brought up by eve.... what happened to our proposed t-shirt? :blink: Sidenote: I guess someone from Lighthouse Pictures is actually quite familiar with our forum. The translation I did on Zaobao Weekly's Taiyo no Uta review appeared on a local film discussion forum a month ago in a thread started by LHP. I just did a check, this thread we are in now can't be found on Google. And I never mentioned we were from YUI-Lover forum during the poster email exchange. |
