Very interesting. And it definitely fits the notion that there are tons of bargains to be had even at Bruce's site.
I think it's amazing that despite Bruce's begging for people to stop sending him very inexpensive items (and having a consignment rate to actively discourage it) still a full 30% of what he sold in 2008 was for under $10. Based on the numbers given, I wouldn't be surprised to see that 50% of all his items actually sold for less than $20. He's already told us that he loses money (or at best breaks even) on sub-$20 items, and some quick math from the numbers in his ad show that for taking up 30% of the work, those less than $10 posters only bring in 3.6% of his revenues. My hat is really off to him and his staff for all the hard work they do to ensure prices remain so affordable for so many. _____ From: MoPo List [mailto:mop...@sol03.american.edu] On Behalf Of Bruce Hershenson Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2009 10:00 AM To: mop...@sol03.american.edu Subject: Re: [MOPO] those testimonials for tloceposters It seems that my latest Movie Collector's ad fits in this discussion.
