what is the thought of these handful of sellers that list posters for a quarter of a million dollars or more? these same listings appear over and over, as tho the seller were waving a sign that says, "see what i have." they are never bid on or bought outright. i am always amused to see these pop up. i guess it is a way to "show off" as no one, in general, is going to pay these kinds of prices. That is just a sales tool, to get viewers to look at a sellers other listings. It only works when you are listing truly rare titles. I resorted once, to that lowly tactic myself. I listed my TWENTIETH CENTURY, and my KID FROM BORNEO 1-sheets, along with a few other unique posters, at ridiculously high prices, just to attract attention to my .99 cent, no reserve offerings. Surprisingly enough, the listings opened a dialogue, and I sold one of the wildly overpriced posters, for a somewhat lesser price.
