Sorry to be dramatic, but I have to vent.
To give some context, I have been collecting movie posters for almost 20 years
and have been a member of MOPO at least 5+ years. To be frank, I am mostly a
lurker but post on the list every couple of months depending on my collecting
needs.
The bottom line, in my opinion, things have obviously changed around here.
When I first joined MOPO, I had great success in using the list to prospect for
posters on my want list. I would post a WTB and then would have multiple
dealers AND collectors that would respond. Or, I would post a question or a
comment and then have at least a few helpful responses.
Nowadays, my WTB posts are either totally ignored or I get maybe one response
(thank you Kirby!) from a dealer. While I appreciate the one response, where is
everyone else??? The biggest question is where are the collectors that used to
freely buy and sell on this list??? Are the posters I'm looking for become too
rare??? Have all of the posters I am looking for been hoarded into
collections??? Are the collectors not selling anymore???
And my posts with questions are largely ignored as well.....I asked on the
weekend if anyone knew of poster frame providers that ship to Canada and of
course no one answered.
Anyways, just frustrated.
Thanks.
