I once had a very large collection of posters (at one time I WAS a major consignor to my auctions), and I have auctioned most of my posters through the auctions.
Phil Wages was once a collector of posters, and he also bought posters from other auctions that he consigned to the auctions, but he sold his posters a couple of years ago and no longer consigns. None of my other employees collects or buys posters. This way, I am not torn between buying a poster and accepting it as a consignment, because I only take it as a consignment. It is fine for those who want to run auctions where they sell their own posters to do so. I just choose not to, for the reasons I have given. So if you have any items you want to auction, reply to this email personally, or visit our consign page at *http://www.emovieposter.com/learnmore/?page=consign* <http://www.emovieposter.com/learnmore/?page=consign>. And if you are solely looking to sell, I can make some recommendations on who I think pays the most money for the type of posters you have.
