Mid-auction analysis - OMGs!, LOLs!, WTFs!, whatev....

Holiday & Thierry have already said multiple times that the thread exists and they will make no restrictions.

Because lacking restrictions does not have to mean that everyone acts without restraint.

I'm conspiring right now to reveal hundreds of auctions in this thread that people are interested in and don't want anyone to know about. I recommend everyone start posting links to Raymond Chandler posters I need to exact revenge upon me.

to follow through on my threat, I know there are hundreds of 99 cents no reserve auctions going on right now at the link below as well as set sale items by others

http://www.movieposterbid.com

I also know there are auctions here
http://www.ebay.com/sch/Originals-United-States-/18829/i.html?LH_Auction=1&_catref=1&_ipg=200&_mdo=Entertainment-Memorabilia&_mspp=&_pcats=196%2C45100&_sc=1&_sop=10&_trksid=p3286.c0.m301

one poster just listed at that second link is for this cool Superman mylar poster. I find it humorous that the seller includes a line stating that the art is by Bob Peak.. lol

Here is what I have found

If you sell 10 posters for every 1 you buy you prefer people to out auctions maybe because one may be yours where as if you buy 10 for every one you sell OR are still a very active buyer it pisses you off!

Dale, I don't think I have ever seen a poster outed that I wanted to buy, and I buy alot of posters (although the last year or so I have slowed down, largely because the things I need are rarer than those I don't).

I also do not mind paying what I need to pay for an item to get it, as long as that price is something I will pay.
I also do not believe anyone has ever seen me gripe about losing a poster in an auction. I only gripe when I forget tio set up a snipe, which I did last month on something I went to sleep reminding myself to check when I got up. It was freakin Weds.. too otherwise focused

I was under the impression that Peak redesigned the original logo.
Sure looks like his work.

the Peak illustrations are in the center of the poster

What does that mean?

That's a joke son. You got a hole in your glove. He keeps pitching 'em and you keep missing 'em!

Hey Mike, are you in NorCal?

Nope, Midwest. As another member pointed out to me, they have also seen this item (cool hand luke) on their craigslist. Looks like this one might be spammed all over the place. I don't think the listing actually mentions where the seller is moving from. Buyer beware, I guess.

I'm playin' him, Bruce.
The Superman logo is by Peak.
The seller has this poster listed correctly.

Yeah, I saw it listed on Monterrey craigslist.

[erik1925]

Yeah, I saw it listed on Monterrey craigslist.

It was also listed down here on the Los Angeles CList, too.

[brude]

Now, how's he do this multi-regional posting?
We're prohibited from posting in more than one craigslist area here in NY.
Anyone know how to do it?

Just change your title/text around slightly.  It's not a very sophisticated system to bypass...

This thread is an abomination, it should be deleted

Why not simply take a vote among those who post regularly (like 50 posts the past month, or some number)?

I vote to delete it.

This debate makes me wanna





I don't have 50 posts, but my vote is - Delete. Do it Bruce.

[kovacs01]

Do it Bruce.

I do not think anyone with the power to remove it is going to do so.

This thread saddens me. It has turned me to despair (and to alcohol). This is a case in point why governments around the world must censor the internet NOW! Sorry, this thread is a blight on our society and most especially on the entire poster collecting community. Like global warming, I fear we have let this thread go on beyond our capability to prevent our own annihilation.

I think this is very true..I feel the same way...I have been buying nonstop every week for the last 10 years...and I  have never ever seen a poster "outed" that I wanted...and please "out" posters for me ..the rarer the better...so I don't have to aimlessly search and waste time......I feel that if you really want something that is rare and you have to have it for your collection, you will go all out to win it ..or you will be one of the underbidders...I personally don't buy posters that I'm just getting for the hell of it because it's a deal...I have no horse in that race....in a true auction format you will never know if you are going to "get a deal" until the auction is over anyway...whether it's outed or not..this thread is hilarious btw

[Ari]

Pretty much how I feel, I buy so rarely these days, and on the rare occasion something is available that I "need" I'd like to know about it.
If not by PM or email. then this thread would be about as good.

[Mirosae]

so...moving on now...

[Ari]

I saw an auction in eBay today, it was awesome, but I forget what it was now.

I know what your saying, as I will go over the top for stuff I need, but as something that you bid on weekly/monthly, why pay £200 for a £100 poster. This is just crazy, we all like a bargain, but paying over the odds for more than a one off is not good sense, unless your loaded, and then who cares...
