Was going to ask what difference does it make where a dealer got a poster they are selling (do I really care if they are reselling a poster they got from Heritage as a slightly higher grade, or if they are selling a different copy they bought from dealer C?), I don't think there is a big market of dealers buying expensive posters from Heritage and then substituting slightly lesser copies when reselling and telling prospective customers it's the same one that sold at Heritage. But then Doug pointed out the one instance where it would be useful - for the advanced collector who is trying to avoid re-acquiring a poster they sold. (Of course this only works for more common pieces like Saucer-men anyways, as I doubt Doug would be dumping a one-sheet from Cimarron in the hopes of upgrading). ----- Original Message ----- From: Todd Spoor <mailto:sp...@earthlink.net> To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Monday, October 11, 2010 7:17 PM Subject: Re: [MOPO] mpgrading Yes Richard I have. What I meant by that statement is; if the detraction to creating a better un-biased grading system is that the poster might be damaged in some way after it leaves our site, days or even years later, the same thing can and does happen right now with posters and EVERYONE is grading them. So what are those grades worth??? At least with what we are doing there is NOW a permanent record that can be used as a reference for the grade when it was in our hands. If Heritage or Bruce sells a Saucer-Men 1sht in VG condition to Dealer A who then resells it as a FINE to Dealer B who then resells it again as a Warren scale C7 there is no way to tell if any damage has occurred in handling let alone if it is even the SAME poster since there is no mark on it to tell us that it is. An unscrupulous person could pass off a different slightly lesser condition original Saucer-Men 1 sheet as the one purchased in VG condition and who would ever no the difference??? This system addresses these issues. Once again, it is NOT a perfect mousetrap, just a little better than what we currently have.

(It is funny that this issue never seems to be thought of when people buy posters under the current system.) Todd.. haven't you ever seen some one post about "how sh*tty that auction company packaged" or "that stupid ebay seller who used no cardboard" ??? everyone is thinking about condition when stuff is being handled or shipped..
