mike,
i think in these times, too.. people are not bidding and buying as
much on ebay. i look there quite a bit too and things that one would
think a steal, are now just sitting there. heritage has many unique
and wonderful posters, too..but i would bet, for many... having to
cough up an additional 19.5% in so NOT appealing. i personally think
that percentage to be a bit high (just my opinion). and with other
sellers like rich or bruce, who carry a vast array of items that he
tries to detail with awesome photos AND no BP, many seek out these
venues, as well.
best.

Just curious of your views on Ebay auctions verses big auction
houses like Herritage and many others.
It just surprises me that I see such great vintage movie posters
and lobbies on Ebay by well known sellers with highly collected
titles in great condition and priced fairly, yet no buyers. Yet
Herritage always seems to pull in winning bidders who bid more than
you can buy it Ebay and plus a 20% buyers premium. I have also won
items from Herritage, but most times find their grading to be a bit
off. I have bought posters that were graded Fine+ and when
received, I would not even had given it a grade of Fine. Most Ebay
sellers will accept returns where Herritage will not.
What are your views on these auctions?
