One simple suggestion to you is to get a site that doesn't give you three pop-up windows on every page you visit. These are ultra-annoying, and I won't be returning to your site anytime soon for this very reason.

Back in 1994 (or 95 I don't remember) while I was in
summer vacation from the university, visiting my
family in Nicaragua I came across an old phone book
from the late 70s, before the Nicaraguan revolution,
when movie theatres there were popular and profitable.
I took the time to call many of the theatres listed in
small towns asking for posters until I got lucky: I
found an old closed theatre in northern Nicaragua. The
man who answered the phone told me the theatre had
been closed for several years but that he had lots of
material and was willing to sell.
The next day I took the bumpy road to the small town
in my father's 4x4 Montero and came back with
literarily a ton of posters from the 50s on. I don't
recall if I expend between 200 and 300 dollars in the
posters and since then I have probably sold to
collectors and through Auctions, about a 5% of them
posters for about $8,000. Sure the 5% of posters sold
have been some of the best from the lot: Tarantula,
Revenge of the Creature, Love in the Afternoon,
Thunderbolt, Touch of Evil, Cool Hand, etc….
Now that I look back I regret selling some of those
posters that are so rare and worth much more, but
thanks to that find and those sells I was able to pay
school expenses have some extra cash for different
needs and now posses a large and beautiful collection
of posters that are also a good investment.
I'm very grateful to many member of this list like
Andrew Dashwood (my first customer; are you still
around?), Larry Wheeler, Sam Sarowitz and John Kisch
between others for their help, business and the last
for helping me promote with other clients.
I love collecting movie posters, they're beautiful and
I have found them profitable. It has been always an
adventure finding them, selling them and meeting
collectors.
If you like please, visit my site, I haven't updated
it in several years so don't trust the prices but if
you like something in it I'll be willing to offer you
a fair price and I'm interested in trading too.
