While Dave is a *VERY *honest and dependable dealer (often with the lowest prices around) I think it is worth noting that I have *NEVER *seen a dealer post that the poster they are asking $35 for just sold for $3 in an eMoviePoster.com auction. Honest auctions get some way too high prices, but they also get *LOTS *of way too low prices as well.
On Sunday I auctioned a Pulp Fiction Lucky Strikes one-sheet for $925, and immediately dealers were posting how they had recently sold one for *FAR * more. Just saying that it goes both ways!
