regardless of what people say about ebay starting prices, everyone knows
that buyers check heritage, bruce and other sites before they bid.
of course, rarer, special items will find a lone collector willing to pay
anything. i have been such a collector, from time to time.
when i listed THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY on ebay today, i checked
heritage's and bruce's sites. i remember seeing bruce's auction for it,
because i
had recently purchased the one sheet and had it framed. bruce reported at
the time that the condition was fair/good: it had water damage and other
damage, but i believe the buyer was happy with it. and it was surely worth
505.
there are 3 half sheet posters on ebay now (by different sellers) that
keep getting renewed every 30 days. they are about 175 each. i have them on
my Want List, but i won't pay those prices. i have each insert, and know
the value. bruce and heritage confirm these posters are valued 20-40/50. i
would feel stupid paying 175.
