I have been watching tonight's action over at theBruce Hershenson
Annex to the U.S. Mint and I don't know if some of these prices are "records",
but they are climbing way up there, that's for sure. And not just for the few
"premier" items either. The spending mania seems to have spread to
I do hope that Bruce tries a Vintage Hollywood Auction
on Movie Poster Bid someday. I think these folks from
ebay would flock to Movie Poster Bid. They could just
see the news on Bruce's site.
Congrats to Bruce. I think many people bid because of
reliability. Also the auction is such a cool
Hi MoPoers,

ITEMS listedon Ebay with12 OF THEM
endingSUNDAY NIGHT!Manyhave REDUCED PRICES and there are MANY NEW ITEMS listed
that HAVE NEVER BEEN LISTED BEFORE!!
You may want to checkall of them out on the
following link or just click on the individual items
I don't know how many are overseas bidders but the exchange rate may have something to do with it. I have noticed that in other auctions where you can see the names of bidders quite a number are from the UK and I think it has to do with the falling dollar.

The Sting for $2,200 ? I have tried to sell a copy on ebay every now
and again without any luck.
Granted mine had a few tape residue stains but I only had it listed for
a starting price of $75..
NO LUCK
Great Job Bruce.

I completely agree. That, and our economy is not going to improve anytime
soon and people have no longer have the disposable income they did 4 years ago.

Look at ebay item 3857378543
An Ocean's 11 one sheet went for $2,025 and the two top bidders were from the United Kingdom. Of course, Bruce's auction is not available for our scrutiny so we must rely on Bruce to inform us. Maybe after his auction closes he will tell us how many UK people were
If you are looking for some great posters at what may be bargain
prices, come visit the Heritage Poster site as the auction closes this evening
on 240 lots. There are some great pieces such as Jailhouse Rock one sheet,
Dead of Night three sheet and The Uninvited one sheet. These all end
Hello Claude and all
Yes, I agree! It's very much due to the favourable exchange rate for those
of us outside the USA.

I cannot agree more on most raised items. Bruce auction results are just
amazing. I bid on several pieces. I bid way above I would ever dream of bidding
myself and guess what I lost all of my items. BUT REMEMBER, I was bidding at
least 30% higher than all of these items sold for EVER. I am
oops, forgot to send to MOPO.
THis is just
not one auction with amazing results. Look at Grey's, Butterfields auction
results. Look at other auctions on EBAY.

Ah yes, Claude, but do you have THE BAT I have, a
pre-20s three sheet that has so far defied identification from the credits it
carries?
Poor old thing needs saving, though.
If a CAT PEOPLE can hit $12k, what does that do
to a BODY SNATCHER one sheet? A superior film, a superior poster
On the flip side, at last for me, I was able to get five lobby cards form original release Universal Horror (House of Dracula, House of Frankenstein, Invisible Man's Revenge (title card),Ghost of Frankenstein and Phantom of The Opera), a 19494-color re-release of Frankenstein Meets The Wolf
