I'm so lucky to be driving distance from Sue Heim so I don't worry about 
framing 3-sheets.  I have also had some great linenbacking from Sylvia and 
Susan Olson.  I'm thrilled I can now find deals on 3-sheets. However, I've not 
found bargains on the ones I want.

Outside of Heritage and emovieposter most 3-sheets are not linenbacked. The 
vast majority are unbacked. Meaning if they are going to be 
displayed they must be backed, restoration or not. That adds to their 
ultimate cost.
 
Second, they're very expensive to frame.
 
Third, you need a lot of wallspace to display them, specifically high 
ceilings.
 
Thus, unless they're rare and/or for very highly sought-after titles, 
they're not as desirable as smaller formats, especially 1-sheets.
 
And with things being financially tighter for most collectors right now, I 
think they'd rather hold out for the 1-sheet than purchase a 3-sheet they might 
not even be able to enjoy.
