Most of the dealers on MoPo consign to eMoviePoster.com already, and this is
*NOT* addressed to those dealers.
I am talking to those few of you who have large inventories and are watching
eBay circle the drain, but you have not yet consigned to us, and I am
wondering why that is.
Is it because you think our commission rates are too high, our selling
prices are too low, you can't handle the no reserves, it takes us too long
to auction your items, you want to consign where your items will be
over-graded and mysterious maxed bids will be placed, or what?
I was talking to one leading dealer and he said "It is really just a matter
of pride" and another said "I just lack the inertia to get that first
package off to you".
I can't tell you how many dealers have started off with a single package to
us (with a mixture of good, bad, and in-between items) and now they send us
lots and lots of items regularly, and in return get monthly checks from us
in the thousands of dollars (there are also a few dealers who sent us one
package of really undesirable difficult to sell junk, and they have never
consigned again).
I am NOT pleading for consignments! We auction 2,000 items a week, and we
take in over 2,000 items per week in new consignments (which is why we will
shortly be adding Sunday afternoon auctions), but I just thought hearing the
reasons for why those few of you who don't consign have never done so might
help me improve any shortcomings in my operation.
You can post on MoPo or you can reply to me privately.
Thanks for any input.
