Hi Kirby
I think that's really interesting that you don't collect, as I suspect most of
the other major dealers do. And I imagine that a lot of dealers got into
dealing via being collectors themselves.
Why do you think it would be a bad idea for you to have a collection and what
would you
I have known many people who were collectors, but once they became
dealers they stopped collecting.
the reasoning was that it was a poor way to run a business.

Exactly. Thanks, Rich, for answering this. I think for me, as a dealer, it's
better to have one head
rather than two. Apologies to Lambert, Hendricks and Ross!

Technically, all dealers are collectors, regardless of their views. There may
be some 'fav' items, but it is still for sale.
To wit:
If one wishes to sell (as in a business model), one has trouble performing that
task from an 'empty wagon'.
If one wishes to have a store, be it a brick/mortar

Allen et al,
I don't disagree with your business analysis here, but you are incorrect about
all dealers being collectors, technically or otherwise.
I know what a collector is, and I am not one.
Maybe most dealers are. That wouldn't surprise me.
Certainly the kind of seller one sees on ebay, a
To-may-to, to-mah-to ...
but, I do see your point regarding personal effects (not for sale) vs. business
inventory.

So are there any poster dealers on MOPO who are poster collectors?
I for one don't see it as being a negative. In fact I think if I'm dealing
with a person that is a collector as well as a seller, there is a better
understanding between us. They may in fact have the same tastes as I do, and
Hi -
I've been a collector since 1957 - I was 9 - I bugged my local theater manager
for the insert from I WAS A TEENAGE WEREWOLF.
I saw the material as religious icons and saved this sacred material from trash
bins across North Carolina.
Never knew anyone else collected posters until I was 19

Hi All,
I was also a victim of this guy under his proficient911 ID. He stiffed me on
three of my auctions and I filed NPB claims on all. I am currently
re-auctioning those items. Just can't believe he is still an eBay member in
good standing. Does anyone know exactly how many non-paying
I think most dealers started as collectors, I myself did and am still
collecting. My private collection (not on the site obviously) consists of
posters mostly for (European) Horror, Exploitation (30s-60s), cult/obscure
cinema and related, and then stills and mostly german lobby cards for much
more
it's a shame I can't just keep every nice item
that comes across my path, but when asked for
advice, I tell people they need to sell the vast
majority of material they own BEFORE THEY DIE.
the reality is that we as collectors or dealers
know what something is worth, so if you have a
million
Rich,
If you unexpectedly croak prior to completion/liquidation of these personal
collections, can I grab the consignment? I promise to Paypal you in a
general Upward direction on a consistent and monthly basis.

Rich makes a very good point, which is not always, diplomatically speaking,
easy to bring up
with clients.

He just collects Benjamins.

DEALERS!
COLLECTORS!
COLLECTORS THAT REFUSE TO DEAL!
DEALERS THAT DON'T CARE TO COLLECT!
COLLECTORS THAT USE DEALERS TO SELL AND SELLERS THAT USE COLLECTORS TO BUY!
THESE ARE POSTERS YOU MUST HAVE FOR YOUR COLLECTION - OR YOUR NON-EXISTANT
COLLECTION!
BUY NOW - DEAL LATER!
DEAL NOW - SELL LATER!

The reason I asked the question was that I think that many dealers are indeed
collectors. However, I don't know that this is a good thing from a business
point of view because it would probably make much more sense to have everything
available for sale. I am certainly a collector as well
I just checked and both of his userids are still operating. I had been under
the impression that if you received 3 separate non paying bidder strikes you
would get suspended but maybe rule this has changed.
I have blocked both IDs but who knows if he will come back with another userid.
I will

Certainly. I mainly even only deal in items, or at least areas of
posters/movies that I like myself. I traded off most of my NON
Horror/Exploitation/SF/Trashy/Euro Western, etc items and concentrated on these
areas that interest me.
I find it helpful to me, as one I enjoy having the material,
