UK auctions are terrible for condition reports.
I have asked countless times at Ewbanks and Astons and get nothing back.
I'll tell you why.
There are lots of 'newbies' who think they can make a fast buck by buying up lots at these auctions, pushing prices up. These auction houses know this so why give descriptions of individual posters in bulk lots when they know they are getting good prices ( and risk losing money if they accurately describe each individual poster)
For example:
50+ posters including Flash Gordon, Gone with the Wind, Magnum Force, Evil Dead, Top Gun, The Thing and others all in generally very good condition.
50+ posters including Flash Gordon (tears to edges), Gone with the Wind (vg) Magnum Force (1" piece missing bottom edge) Evil Dead (fold wear), Top Gun (vg) The Thing (fold separations) and others.
Which one if you're a newbie are you more likely to bid heavily on?
Good luck in selling a percentage of these posters with pieces missing.
Mark is right, spend the petrol/train fare and get down to the auction to view it yourself. It's the only way these days.
