*My company's (eMoviePoster.com's) final 2024 total sales were $5,689,164.00. This means we have averaged $6 million per year for EIGHT years and we keep setting LOTS of individual records!But even more impressive is that in 2019 we held 140,000 auctions, while in 2020 we "only" had 100,000 auctions, and in 2021 we "only" had 75,000 auctions, and in 2022 through this year we "only" had 54,000 auctions per year.In 2022 we had six major auctions, but (because I was tired of working so hard year round!) in 2023 and 2024 we only had four major auctions each year.So why do our sales hold pretty steady when we keep lowering the number of overall auctions and major auctions each year?This is because our selling price per auction keep rising drastically as the number of annual auctions we have run has fallen by two-thirds over 5 years (it has almost tripled)!Why have we continued to have strong sales growth virtually every year with one-third the auctions, and one-third fewer major auctions?There are eight reasons for this:1 We far and away charge the lowest rates at every price level of any major auction and we prove it here: https://www.emovieposter.com/learnmore/?page=consign_major#absoluteproof <https://www.emovieposter.com/learnmore/?page=consign_major#absoluteproof>2 We get higher prices overall than any other auction at every price level, when you compare "apples to apples and oranges to oranges" (even if you accept the many "false results" other auctions often report).3 We do a better job of auctioning than any major auction (how buyers AND consignors are treated, before, during, and after every transaction).4 We have very loyal bidders (70,000+ to date) and consignors (3,365 to date), many of whom we have dealt with for five or ten or more years, quite a few for nearly our entire 35 year history!5 eBay continues to implode. It has no quality control over their sellers, so the good auctioneers get lumped in with the many bad ones, and their business continue to decline. Most former regular eBay bidders are now mostly only bidding with us, and most former eBay sellers are now mostly only selling through us!6 Other major auctions regularly alienate their consignors AND their bidders, due to many shady auction practices, including massive deceptive "25%, $29 minimum buyers premiums" (that deceive sellers) and over-grading what they auction, and/or enhancing images and "missing" restoration or defects that their items have.7 We have the best employees of any major movie poster auction, 19 in all. Over the years we have continually refined what we do, and a high percentage of our best employees have been here between ten and twenty years each!8 We DON'T have fancy offices, showrooms, or exhibit space, or printed catalogs! We put all the savings from not having those things into having NO buyers premiums, charging actual shipping cost and having 16 weeks of Pay and Hold, and many other ways that let our bidders and our consignors get a better deal than at any other auction!What will the future hold? We don't know, so you will just have to come back here a year from now and find out! But we HAVE committed to keeping this company going exactly as it is for ONE more years (at least), and I am loving the new eMoviePoster.com (with far fewer auctions, and far fewer low priced items) so I may continue for years!So if YOU have excellent posters or related items to sell, we don't know why you would not immediately consign them to eMoviePoster.com, the #1 poster auction in the world, for 35 years and $119 million in real sales!*
