My guess is a lot of people liked the film and think its going t have a huge draw on the market place when just like any new film they sell strong at 1st and if youre lucky 1% of those retain maybe half the value that they brought during their peak sales times while the movie was in theaters.

Agreed.

It may fall to half of what was paid for it during the initial "buzz, hype", or whatever when the movie is first released, for a period of time.  Only time will tell what the long term future market value of it will be, and even that will probably shift with times.

The ONLY hope that this movie has of maintaining the value of its posters is if it become a huge cult classic .. and sadly I dont see that happening .. It may be a fun movie people remember watching when they were younger and want the posters just for the sake of nostalgia but that will probably be all ..

I normally shy away from posting in-progress auctions, but I imagine if you are willing to pony up more than $776 for a For Your Eyes Only 40x60 you probably already know about this auction!

3 hours to go... get the popcorn!

 Shocked

Seems some people want what they want and nothing stands in their way.

I'm not judging by the way, I'm sure people would think I'm crazy for some of the stuff I've bought.  I just think it is pretty wild when something like this happens... it must be a pretty rare occurrence for two people as crazy as us to focus our obsessions on the same poster at the same time!

I thought I had one, but I couldn't find it on my spreadsheet.  So I went sniffing in the garage and I found it.  To my recollection, since I didn't record its entry, I spent $50 on the exact same mint For Your Eyes Only 40x60in a year ago. 

I don't know why, but seeing Heritage's auction makes me happy.

Heritage has been getting lots of outsized results lately & I have a feeling they have a few newer buyers with less knowledge than necessary to collect and spend that much money on many different things I've been seeing

they clearly aren't interested in pre-1950 paper though

I know what you mean. I have a nice collection of posters I have paid far too much for. Most were early on though I did lose my shit a few times this summer.
I just have never spent that much but that too could have more to do with my finances.

I have to say the posters at Heritage's November Signature auction are *$%ing insane - by far the best auction I've ever seen.  Bride of Frankenstein teaser sheet?  Maybe because they're in LA they're getting better consignments.  Some high-profile posters I like (and can't possibly afford):

If ever there was a case of shill bidding.... Rio Bravo WC, 19 bids @ $480 and rising


Quote
AS YOU CAN SEE OTHER POSTERS OF THIS QUALITY AND ORIGINALITY ARE SELLING FOR WELL OVER $1,000.00 


An untrimmed FN/VF Rio Bravo WC just sold for for $84 15 days ago at Heritage.  What an asshole.

That is what I was assuming too...

I'm am pretty excited for this auction though.  I don't think I have the funds to be bidding on anything this time around, but I'm impressed with how much un-backed paper is listed.  That is very refreshing to see...
