EB Forum

I have an ebay alert notification for an auction that has ended or was removed, yet it still shows under my eBay Auction Alert section. It's for a SOAD Emek print. Can someone please remove this? Thank You.

Just out of curiosity...what did you use/do to remove the marks?

How can I add notes to one of the listings on the "For Sale on Ebay" sections. For example, if I have already confirmed that a print isn't signed, how can I make others aware of that in this section? Does this make sense?...I have had a few beers during the Super Bowl

Good luck! I outsourced the job to a professional.

We need a professional framer to join these boards to set us all straight.....

In addition see the following advice excerpt from a museum curator at www.DrLoriV.com I would say she probably knows a thing or two about framing :wink: What is professional framing? Most frame shops are dedicated to archival, museum quality framing. Well, that sounds very good but what does that me...

I'm confused...in a previous thread you said you have done this before. Did I miss something?

I have a pretty good book that shows how to mount art using several methods including acid free tape. PM me if you're interested in the title/author of the book. Some people prefer corners as mentioned above because they are worried that the tape will damage the print. Supposedly it won't if the tap...

Mine is working too. Sorry I waited a couple of days to post my problems

I haven't been able to connect to www.expressobeans.com for about a week. Luckily I found a post on the phishposters.com forums that recommended using the ip address instead (http://70.85.101.5). This results in a loss of some functionality and differing views of the site from 'how it should look'. ...

I like suggestion A. Suggestion B just flew right over my head

Extreme heat + paper =hmmmm

You could always call a framing shop and ask them if it is possible/a good idea.

Codeblue is correct, museums don't use corners. A second big difference between the poster collecting world and that of fine art etchings is the understanding of the difference between "acid-free" and "rag" mattes. Museums only use rag mattes. Many mattes that are "acid-free" actually are not acid-...

Yes. More information can be found here:

Found the site on Google when I was researching the use of acid free linen tape to mount prints.

I spoke with a co-worker of mine who used to work as a framer. He confirmed that they used archival acid free tape even for extremely expensive items (1000's of dollars) since if desired it should be a reversible process. He says corner and strips might seem like a good idea now, but the piece will ...
