Let me try to put things in a clearer perspective. I've been collecting original posters for 13 years. I collect from 1970-present. I have approximately 200 or so foreign and domestic titles all NM. With just a handful of exceptions I own virtually every rare and popular title since 1970. You name it, Goonies Map, Tron 82 Rolled with Game Text, TCM, Halloween, Evil Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Clockwork Orange X-rated, Godfather, Back to the Future, Mad Max, Star Wars 77, Day of the Dead Advance, Dawn of the Dead Quad, Escape from New York Advance and Regular rolled, and on and on and on. As I stated above, all are Near mint. I believe out of all of 200+ Nearmint posters, I've only paid more than $300 for one of them and that was the Tron Rolled with the game text , and that was like $340. So Basically, I have 95% of all the key posters since 1970 (still missing around 5 or so), and have only paid more than $300 for just one and maybe only one or two above $200. There's no way in SAM'S HELL I'm going to pay $600 for a single "ok looking" poster. Yes, the movie Jaws is well known, but for the most part when compared to all other 200 posters in my collection the Jaws posters is average. It has one of my strongest pet peeves right there at the very top, giant text referencing a book or movie. Yes, the shark portion is decent, but that art is nothing when compared to the Goonies Map, Back to the Future, Mad Max, Last Starfighter, and on and on and on. Like I said before, the prices of the Jaws poster have nothing to do with its value or gold bullion value (a nonsense allegory), or the popularity of John Q. Public. It has to do with the self-fulfilling prophecy of this poster unto itself. Every single movie poster webpage, book article, etc. all have it as the first poster the eye catches. It's the Citizen Kane of modern movie posters. It doesn't mean it's worth that much, it's just means it's priced that high. Collectors are forced to buy it at high prices, because they know it has a culture all to itself and it can never be had for a "bargain" like most posters on earth can be. But go ahead and keep believing the John Q Public or gold bullion nonsense, I'll be patiently waiting for that elusive bargain, if it ever shows up. Edit: The current range of the poster on Ebay is $1195-$3395.
