I can understand the part about the mortgage, but I'd rather use my
dinner money for a poster and just go on a diet.... imo.

Much as I respect Bruce and his opinions I do feel that the downturn
in the economy world wide has put a limit on sales.
Lets take the Christies auction in March which had some high prices
and even last year there were some extravagant prices. The last
auction did not. Ok we can all say that it is due to collectors/
buyers now having that particular piece. But lets face it a DTESS 3
sheet at under $9k was an investment for any dealer as well as a
punter.
I feel Bruce and anyone else out there that luxury items like movie
posters have taken a down turn in sales. Take a look at Italian Job
one sheets that were selling for $800-900 they are not selling now.
I don't think we dealers can really kid ourselves. Prices have
reached plataeaus and/or gone down in value. I do feel that it is an
investment situation now and time that we could use to stockpile.
However we still need to pay mortgages and put diner on the table.
