western union is very often used to scam people out of their money...
so i can see why ebay may have decided against that form of payment..
makes total sense to me.

But if that is the case, using the same logic, far more scams are
done these days with fraudulent Money Orders (See Craigslist for scam
alerts).
So that leaves PayPal. And if you feel safe using them, great.

With all this talk (and reality) of economic woes and dire warnings of
inflation and recession (some of which we are beginning to see everyday), I'm
curious whether this is impacting Sellers and more specifically, are you seeing
a drop in Buyers and Bidders? Any thoughts on this? Seems to

Hello Saul;
I have no idea what the movie-poster collecting world is like, but as
for my Monster Magazine trading world, I've found a serious decline in
activity. Right now My Store is at a peak with some greatest items that I've
ever

I've been starting to list some stuff on eBay again this week
(user-id: filmposter.net).
When starting to prepare my auctions, I was looking for something in
the help section of eBay Germany, they announce an upcoming 'policy
change':

there are three trends that have a larger effect on sales of poster dealers
and auctions:
1) There is such a HUGE amount of material being offered on a daily basis

We currently have two really sets of auctions closing on April 1st and 3rd:
*one of 999 lobby card lots (each containing two cards per lot from the same
film) including a great collection of 200 cowboy western lots (400 cards in
all!), 20 of which are from Roy Rogers films
*and the other of 577
Perhaps they'll spend it on collectibles which can gain in value rather than
gas which just burns. I've been driving less and combining my trips. I also
try to use mass transit or walk.

The only thing that surprises me about this is that Marty is just now
finding out. eBay banned Western Union two years ago. But they only ended
auctions that mention it if they were reported to them. Now they are adding
filters that stop people from listing items in ways they don't allow.

Hi, Everyone,
I have about 40 auctions closing on SUNDAY. If you have an extra minute,
I'd really appreciate it if you'd take a look! Link to ALL auctions and

We recently (as in the last few weeks) finally started adding a few items to
our website in a priced sale format, and I have been very pleased with the
results.
But, starting tomorrow night I'll definitely give the hobby my best test of
this year as I'll be starting out a bunch of auctions,

Not necessarily, Alan, they could just be on the tail end of a
recession turning into a depression...
But that's just the glass 'half-full' perspective...

My Note: Dave mentions Pickup On South Street which I viewed for the first
time this past year. I then popped the DVD back into the player three more

Sorry. I have never bid on one of Heritage's online auctions. The Sunday
Internet Movie Poster Auction #58035 is the one I'm interested in. All items
end at 10PM? Is it like EBAY in that it does end at the time listed or does the
bidding continue until no one bids for like five minutes?
Business has never been better. There may be a recession, but we see no
signs of it here.
We have always had lots of overseas sales, but more so recently with the
weak dollar. The collectors think they are taking advantage of us..and I
say
take advantage all you want!!
yes you can ...in fact its somewhat better than ebay in that on
the final bid page you are given a second by second countdown

Hey Everyone,
Hope you are all having a great weekend. I have a customer that is looking
for a Pleasantville Lenticular poster. If anyone has one, please email me
condition and price. I thank you in advance for your time. Let me know.

My January and February were stronger than last year, my March is looking to be
about the same. The main change has been a slight uptick in the number of UK
and other European buyers taking advantage of the lower US dollar. Overall,
it's more of a buyer's than a seller's market, especially at
31 matches
