And now you can browse the items in *ALL* of galleries at one time in our * All Auctions <http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/all.html>* gallery! We know that many of you like to wait for the "last minute" to place your bids, but remember that if you do that, *it is easy to either forget to bid or to get busy watching several items and miss the end of some or all of them*, so there are also pluses to bidding before the auctions begin to end. And remember that there surely *WILL* be *LOTS AND LOTS* of last minute bids placed (in recent weeks, more and more bidders are waiting for the very end of the auctions, and the prices have doubled on average during the final day!), so just because you have the high bid with a short time to go, you should still go back to the auction right near the end, and see if anyone else outbid you, so you have a chance to re-bid, if you choose to (and remember that our auctions are time extended auctions, which won't end until five minutes go by without a bid being placed, so you can never get "shut out"). If you encounter any sort of problem (in signing in, bidding, etc), please either call us at 417-256-9616 or e-mail us at * [email protected]*, but realize that it is far better to not be calling us with seconds or minutes to go on the item you are interested in buying, which is one more reason you might consider placing your bids with at least 15 minutes or half an hour to go in each auction you are interested in. Good luck on whatever you may bid on in our last three parts of our current *DECEMBER 2010 MINI/MAJOR AUCTION* ending on *December 2nd, 5th, or 9th*! *FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO SAY, "NOTHING EVER GOES FOR REALLY BARGAIN PRICES", YOU ARE FLAT OUT WRONG! *In our just concluded Part I, *ELEVEN *linenbacked posters (which included an Italian one-panel from Husbands in very good to fine condition!) sold for under $20 each, *THIRTY *linenbacked posters sold for under $30 each, and FIFTY THREE linenbacked posters sold for under $40 each, and almost every one of these was *WAY *under the cost of linenbacking alone, and anyone who bought any one of those also receives the bonus t-shirt!
