No not our print, but found this ebay listing, it would be ok except for a few oddities,
The price for a starter, $4999.00 🤣🤣🤣. Another clueless lister,
Secondly, this is more likely to be on low fade kodak if not kodak SP, as for the feature being in all of its technicolour glory, there are super 8 technicolour prints of any title as far as i know.
Viewed three times in 30 years, (apparently) yet he thinks the price is now worth this?

I sat through our own print once but my Brother has watched it many many times, it is a classic but just not for me.

Not me either, Tom. I think she acts like a spoiled bitch and can’t stand that character. Got a Blu, likely never see it again

At that price, i think the sellers mind has "gone with the wind" ........

Before the days of Platters and long play reels , remember showing GWTW on35mm 2000ft reels.Obviously it was a reissue , and as the cinema had not updated yet,if I remember the complete film was something like 14 to 16 reels maybe more including play in /out plus intermission,wo betide if you missed the changeover.Just reminiscing 😃👍

I don't really understand why members get so alarmed at stupidly high Ebay prices. It happens so often now, I just ignore them and don't want to waste my time thinking about them. I suppose it gives us something new to put on the forum and discuss it.

I doub't very much he will sell it, particularly without screen shots. Hopefully he will relist at a more sensible price.

I myself dont get alarmed by it, I just think its funny but even funnier when those who do it are film collectors who should know better. If a start price is sensible, then whatever it goes up to by bids, good luck, but its becoming more of a comedy show when you get starters like this. Always worth a laugh.

I'm not sure why the seller would think that's a fair price for it or is it a type error? either way I wouldn't think it would sell for such a huge amount, anyone in the know wouldn't buy it, good luck to the seller, Mark

It is a strange one because even the prints which are in excellent condition rarely sell above £400.
While it is obviously a milestone film I dont think it has a lot of repeatability due to its length.
