I guess my ruminations about little money left in the hobby were right on
the money, because, as of right now, with only 32 hours to go, there are
LOTS of items in Part II of our December mini/major auction that are
currently at incredibly low prices!
There are still 44 items at 99 cents (almost all of them professionally
linenbacked!), 100 under $6 each, and 196 under $21! Of course it is very
likely that many of these posters will get one or more bids before they
close, but you have nothing whatsoever to lose by bidding, except just a few
moments of your time, and UNLIKE JUST ABOUT EVERY OTHER MAJOR AUCTION I KNOW
OF, you absolutely WILL win the items if you are the high bidder (there are
no reserves, and no secret deals where the consignors bid their items up to
pre-set prices, etc).
And it is not just the items that are under $21 that represent potential
great deals! There are a total of around 400 posters under $75 each, and the
vast majority of those are still under THE COST OF LINENBACKING ALONE! And
the remaining 100 items that are over $75 are almost all well under the
retail price you would expect to see them at on almost any dealers website.
Speaking of that, we won't be selling linenbacked posters for at least 3
months, and many savvy dealers buy bargains from our linenbacked sales, and
then put them on their websites at fixed prices that are double or triple
what they paid, and most often they will have sold that poster by the time
our next linenbacked sales rolls around!
SHOULDN'T YOU BE TAKING A FEW MOMENTS TO CHECK OUT THESE 500 AUCTIONS BEFORE
THEY CLOSE 30 HOURS FROM NOW?
WE CURRENTLY HAVE TWO GREAT AUCTIONS ON EBAY:
One is an incredible auction of 500 great mostly linenbacked non-U.S.
posters plus U.S. posters that are NOT one-sheets, inserts, and half sheets,
plus some VERY choice lobby cards in Part II of our December mini/major
auction CLOSING ON DECEMBER 18th (Part I concluded on December 4th, and
contained 500 great mostly linenbacked U.S. one-sheets, inserts, and half
sheets, and those items sold for over $150,000!). We PROMISE you that we
are not exaggerating on how great the second part of this auction is! We
only do a really special auction like this once a year, and when you see the
contents, you will understand why (and after this Part II is concluded, you
will have to wait an entire year to see another auction as special as this
one!).
The other auction is of 121 'oversized' & special rolled posters, rare
campaign books, animation cels, and more which close on THURSDAY DECEMBER
20th! There are many very rare items in this auction that you will likely
never again see offered (or not offered for many years)!
On December 11th, we added 500 great mostly linenbacked non-U.S. posters
(plus U.S. posters that are NOT one-sheets, inserts, and half sheets, plus
some VERY choice lobby cards) in Part II of our December mini/major auction
and they close on Tuesday, December 18th! Read more about these below, or
go see them right now (with large thumbnails and links to these on eBay for
easy bidding) in our Tuesday Auction Gallery!

REMEMBER THAT, IN BOTH OF OUR WEEKLY AUCTIONS (unlike some other sellers of
vintage movie paper), EVERY SINGLE ONE OF OUR ITEMS TRULY START AT 99 CENTS
WITH NO RESERVE ON ANY ITEM! AND WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE SUPER-INFLATED
SHIPPING AND CRAZY "BUYERS PREMIUMS" YOU SEE IN OTHER MAJOR AUCTIONS! In OUR
auctions, you can purchase up to FIFTEEN 99 cent items and your total cost
is $14.85, plus a very reasonable $9 U.S. shipping charge (we charge the
actual cost of shipping to all buyers this week, plus $2 for packaging
materials). AND WE WILL LET YOU COMBINE PURCHASES FROM BOTH TUESDAY AND
THURSDAY INTO A SINGLE PACKAGE, THUS SAVING YOU EVEN MORE!
Remember that YOU can't get the great deals that happen week after week in
our auctions if you aren't bidding! AND YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE! If you
place a bunch of fairly low bids but only get one or two items, then you are
sure to be happy, for you will have gotten some really good deals. Even if
you place a bunch of bids and get nothing at all, you will only be out a
little of your time, and no more.
Do you know about our Tuesday and Thursday Auction Galleries? One of the
worst kept "secrets" in the movie poster hobby is that it is FAR easier to
look at our items through our Tuesday Auction Gallery (
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php) and our Thursday
Auction Gallery (http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php
).
We feel certain that if you purchase even one of them and then once you see
how honestly we describe them and how we charge only the actual shipping
cost and how we send them right out promptly and well-packed, that you will
declare your independence from those auction houses with the outrageous
buyers premiums, the over-graded items, the misleading images that obscure
defects, and the outrageous shipping! Good luck on whatever you may bid on.
