On the other hand  how about addressing those so openly critical of Rick Ryan.  
He was doing a great service to collectors and unfortunately it turned sour and 
not  through any fault of his.  Why don't you tell every negative critic to not 
say anything at all?  I don't see you chiming in on every stupid or negative 
comment made on mopo and there are a lot of them.  
 
In any case, since you didn't have anything nice to say about my comment why 
didn't  you practice what you preach?

To answer the original question, I will buy a piece in need of restoration 
because I can't afford a pristine poster on a high dollar title.  And sometimes 
I just live with the defects and don't bother restoring the poster.

1.  when you buy with the intention to restore OR NOT to restore, the amount 
you bid is affected.
 
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

how many buyers buy a poster knowing in advance that they will RESTORE/LINEN?
 
i suppose dealers & restorers have this in mind.
