First of all, the best of luck to David for the new site.
Personally, I do not sell reprints on the website (and on the rare
occasion that I do, they are clearly identified), but I DO sell a
small number of reprints at the brick-and-mortar shop. I have one
standee with reprints, they are clearly separated from the originals,
and they are perfect for inexpensive decoration, which is something
I’m being asked for on a regular basis.
Nothing wrong with reproductions in my book, as long as they are
labelled correctly and priced accordingly.

Enough already with all the talk about eBay!
Everybody on this list knows by now about all the BS that goes on on
ebay, but is that what Bidll is all about? To be an alternative to
eBay?? We have Hershenson, Heritage, Movie Poster Bid, Movie poster
Exchage, (and you’ll pardon me if I don’t mention everyone), and
don’t all those provide ample alternative to the dumb eBay??
EBAY HAS PLENTY OF REPROS! Is that still news?

there are double the amount of repros on ebay than original posters
every day of the year (if not 3-4x)

Are reproductions and counterfeits “flooding” the market?
Really?
I don’t think so. Sure, there have been some fakes and some
chicanery.
But the vast majority of movie posters out there are authentic.
I wish bidll good luck, certainly.
But the idea that most collectors are going to encounter fakes
wholesale is just not true.
Think about the millions of movie posters that exist. And then think
about
what percentage of these you believe to be fake. In my experience it
isn’t even one tenth of one percent if that!

Dave,
How did these various newspapers and media outlets get wind of bidll
in the first place, in order to do these stories?
Did you (or an associate) contact them is some capacity to let them
know?

With reproductions and counterfeits flooding the market and major
retailers also using the sites as another outlet for their products,
Mr Rew said finding original collectible bargains was becoming more
difficult.
“It’s become less about finding that special piece for your
collection and more about shopping for everything else. As a
collector I don’t want to wade through all the everyday retail
items, the reproductions, the reprints and the knock-offs just to
find that special piece I need for to my collection.”
Bidll will cater solely for passionate collectors with reprints,
reproductions, fakes and counterfeits banned.
