Thank you all for your kind words! Jeff, what is it you don't get? Just because it failed to sell in one venue for $15,000 does not automatically make it worth less than $15,000. We buy things at auction from Bruce, Heritage, etc. all the time and routinely sell them for much more.
Bruce....a mini major auction? Is that like jumbo shrimp? I saw that Melrose Place poster, but I think I remember it having a bite out of it on the corner? Something made me not want it, and I think that was it. The poster is not faded at all, it looks exactly like the picture in our listing. If it was faded it would have said so in Heritage's description. The picture of it in their printed catalog is more accurate than their online photo. The guys at Poster Mountain did the restoration and it looks spectacular. Our buyer is extremely pleased. ____________________________________________________________ David Lieberman CineMasterpieces.com | 602 309 0500 | 15721 N.

(35K)? this makes no sense. i dont get the logic. jeff On Feb 27, 2009, at 4:12 PM, [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) wrote: Jeff, Heritage initially estimated this would sell for $20,000 to $30,000 in their last signature auction. When it failed to reach the minimum reserve (I believe it was about $15,000) it was consigned to us. We had an offer come in, ran it by our consignor, and he said yes.
