Tommy , i have no axe . as for emovieposter , put on your glasses and just read the first sentence again , Bruce is the only one often stating that dealers can buy your stuff in their auctions & resell it for 2-3-4-5 times what your posters go for at auction why can't i ask a public question regarding a public email i received ? since rich compares himself to emovieposter saying he can do so much better giving fair prices instead of dirt prices (which is just mudslinging) i ask him to give a concrete example , am i asking too much ?

I have no axe to grind here but I do wonder what your problem is, Filip. I cannot see where Rich compares himself to emovieposter, nor am I quite sure why you feel the need to question this in such a public manner. It is for whoever wishes to take advantage of Rich's offer to decide whether or not the price offered is fair. If you are so interested why didn't you just offer to sell him a poster and see what happened?

At 09:56 PM 10/12/2014, you wrote: Hi Rich , that sounds pretty interesting , so what you say basically is that you'll buy straight at prices that are competitive with what one gets when consigning with emovieposter right ? since they have an auction history on their site showing all previously made prices on auctions how would you calculate what you'll pay for a poster ? say for example a poster sold for 60$-55$-40$-15$-9$-82-110-25$ over the last 4 years at emovieposter , where (but not always) price differences may reflect condition variations , what would you pay for this poster in order to obtain mutual happiness? thanks , filip Date: Sun, 12 Oct 2014 14:03:41 -0700 From: sa...@comic-art.com Subject: [MOPO] DON'T CONSIGN YOUR COLLECTION FOR PEANUTS! MOVIEPOSTERBID.COM WILL BUY YOUR COLLECTION FOR CASH To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Did you ever notice how some auctions sell most your collection and advertise that dealers can buy your stuff in their auctions & resell it for 2-3-4-5 times what your posters go for at auction? Do you want to get fair prices for your collection, or do you want to sell it for dirt prices so that dealers and other collectors can buy them for a tiny percentage of their value and make more money on your stuff than you can? At MoviePosterBid.com We Will Buy Your Collection For Cash! That's right we will buy your collection for cash No waiting for auctions to take place No waiting for some auction to sell your stuff for peanuts and send you the shells. Some auctions are only interested in how much they can make and how little they can pay you Imagine this, you buy a poster for $100 in 2008. Now you need to raise some cash because you're closing on a house or buying a car or you want to bring your children on a vacation so you send your collection off to be sold. That same poster you paid $100 is auctioned for $7 and then to add insult to injury, the auction takes a whopping 75% of the sale price and you get $1.75.. that's right, one dollar and seventy five cents! Seriously, is that the expectation when you send your collection off to some big seller who plies you with promises of the Moon only to find that a trip to the trash can was more worthwhile? Don't believe the rhetoric! They may tell you how "bad" all other sellers are, but when these auctions sell your posters, the only interest they have is how much money they make and what you make isn't even a consideration in the equation. MoviePosterBid.com is owned & run by a longtime collector Richard Halegua who started selling collectibles in 1966 and I am still actively collecting, so I know how collectors feel when they want to buy, sell, trade.. or auction their collectibles. I don't want to see my collection unceremoniously auctioned for dirt-poor prices and I doubt you feel any differently When I examine your collection I'm not licking my lips wondering "how many consignment fees can I get from this stuff" ..... I'm thinking "what price can I buy this collection for that both myself AND yourself can feel good and happy with the transaction". Don't fall for rosy stories of incredible success only to find huge failure at the end of the road At MoviePosterBid.com when you offer us your collection, we're looking for mutual happiness.
