I checked out this guy's other items, which range from comic books to
vintage coin-op machines. The pricing on everything is breathtakingly
delusional, and unless the shipping includes oral sex from the delivery
woman.... it's is a tadge high too.
Oh, well. People can charge whatever they want. The prices are so high
that I highly doubt if ANYONE with enough money to pay these jacked-up
prices would be dumb enough to pay them. A quick Google will also give
even the most clueless poster newbie enough ammo to realize this guy was
on crack when he listed this stuff.

there is a one sheet with photo from "Flash Gordon Conquers the
Universe" described as (including spelling error):
FLASH GORDEN VINTAGE MOVIE POSTER 100% ORIGINAL
Very Rare nice orignla Gorden Movie poster from the 1930s comes with a
Certificant of Authenicty to be All original
Putting aside the issue of this particular Flash Gordon
serial being made in 1940, the poster itself is from a Universal
International re-release from around 1947. This seller doesn't appear
to do a lot of poster selling. While someone can charge whatever they
want, having an $11,000 Buy It Now price would seem to warrant doing a
little research, unless this level of accuracy represents full
disclosure.
There are several active poster sellers on EBay and elsewhere who
will describe a poster as follows: "Original vintage poster from this
1937 John Wayne western"
The poster in question is perhaps a 1952 re-release, but that
information is not disclosed. Though the poster being sold is not a
reproduction and none of the description is inaccurate, it certainly
seems like a hugely deceptive practice.
