Thanks to those who weighed in on the topic of "do mainstream vintage
posters lose market share due to an dying population ", I enjoyed reading
the replies.
On another note, when poster auctions on ebay, emovieposter or Heritage
start at 1.00 , the titles all have value but the question as we have been
discussing is what is it ? If you were to sell or auction on a regular basis
a car , house or boat at the same low comparison % starting point, wouldn't
that devalue the market that these items reside in ? A strategy like this
might damage their respective industries? Or does it encourage more buyers
to participate and push prices higher and get better prices for vendors? The
hope is there are more buyers participating that week to get it above the
1.00 mark? If there are not as many buyers that week then because of the
lower starting price the value of the item is not always true one might
think ?
At the end of the day, should the poster industry be heading in the
direction of continuing to fight each other for the lowest starting price or
is that just healthy competition?

Ben
