serious collectors' collections are enhanced because of ebay.  
 
when you see a poster you want, do you really care where you buy  it?  
 
of course, you factor in variables such as reputation, etc.  how  else can 
you explain higher prices at some venues?  
 
but most private ebay sellers do provide extra images and friendly  
responses to questions.  it is ebay for which we have  criticism, not really 
the 
individual sellers.  and, yes, when you have a  problem needing ebay 
assistance it is rarely assistance.
 
one advantage of calling heritage or emovieposter* or some of my  other 
MOPO friends, you can have a nice, UNDERSTANDABLE  conversation.  i have found 
ebay's customer service more often than not a  total waste of time,  thank 
god for American Express. 
 
      (*i call bruce's office after an auction  to authorize the AMEX 
payment.  bruce has very nice young assistants all of  whom were born way after 
the date on the posters i tend to buy.  i once  called a call center outside 
the USA and referenced "Jerry Lewis", to which the  person said, Jerry who?  
But, ebay hires psychologists:  they always  tell me that they understand 
how i feel.)
