2. if you buy without intending to restore, condition plays a more important factor.

3. people buying from a smaller poster image on ebay that would not be inclined to restore might not bid, whereas someone who restores doesn't care.

the post was to get a perspective of the thought process of buyers. to some, condition doesn't matter. some only buy VG cond or better.

i have sold posters on ebay where the buyer has told me in advance that he will restore.......but when he received the poster, the condition was better than he thought and framed it "as is". (this happened to me recently and i just got an email from the buyer to this effect---with a non-ebay transaction----so when we were negotiating the price, he factored in the linen process cost.)

the converse scenario i am sure is, also, likely on ebay with smaller images.

of course..............some will never bid on a poor cond....

etc
etc

i suppose dealers & restorers have this in mind.
