What confuses me is WHY a best offer that was 10 THOUSAND dollars below the asking price was accepted? no one, logically, would slash 10 grand-- even during these economic times...that makes NO sense. a couple grand, maybe, when negotiating. the thought that immediately comes to mind is

Jeff, Heritage initially estimated this would sell for $20,000 to $30,000 in their last signature auction. When it failed to reach the minimum reserve (I believe it was about $15,000) it was consigned to us. We had an offer come in, ran it by our consignor, and he said yes.

I think this just proves that if you don't get your price the first time, try again in a week or so and who knows ! Also I might add that the Wizard Of Oz is a special film with built-in fans and collectors who will pay just about anything for original material. FRANC -Original Message-

Congratulations! David! I'm sure this is a Fleabay record this year so far for a movie poster. This confirms exactly what I've been saying all along. Heritage, unfortunately does not reach as many buyers as you might think. Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2009 19:12:27 -0500 From: dli...@aol.com

Is it the same one from Heritage? I would never have guessed. The colors in the Heritage one look very faded, I wasn't surprised it didn't sell. http://movieposters.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=695 http://movieposters.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=695Lot_No=85330 Lot_No=85330

Thank you all for your kind words! Jeff, what is it you don't get? Just because it failed to sell in one venue for $15,000 does not automatically make it worth less than $15,000. We buy things at auction from Bruce, Heritage, etc. all the time and routinely sell them for much more.
