OK, so who on this list bought something from this seller? A seller who apparently has such imaginative selling tactics? Come on, don't be shy. Step right up. Who bought something from this carny poster seller? Personally, I don't find sellers that put insanely high prices on posters artful sellers. I think they are ether uninformed on movie poster values, or shysters. And I don't buy posters from shysters. This isn't my first rodeo.
And I didn't look at the guy's other stuff. Why waste my time? You want to get my attention? Start your auctions at .99.

Karloff/Price You got it, Helmut. That's just what I was going to say, but it seemed too obvious. Guess his strategy worked: the listing has been posted on Mopo (including on Mopo's website), thus more people will look at it, then look at his other listings, then potentially make a purchase of something else he has up. Cost to him: zip. Not a strategy I use myself but there's nothing "crack baby" about it.
