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

[ATLfun]

I don't want for this to become flame-worthy, but by reading a bunch of incredulous responses to the prices of things on here, I'd just like to point out that you guys are not the infallible kings of valuation.

Oh my, FightClub is coming out swinging...

There are those who think they are smarter because.....(pick one)

a. They have more money
b. They have more college degrees
c.  They have more common sense/street smarts
d.  They have been endowed by God with special poster powers

The only thing I know for sure, is those that like to hold themselves out as being smarter are generally not.

Outstanding art and image. 

$388.38

I love this poster...mine was gracing my walls until I recently swaped the frames out.
Stunning in person.

[Zorba]

Damned, could not resist. I was so definitely not going to bid this time.

Gratz to you sir.

Whoever that Raziz guy is who won quite a number of Bond posters from Emovie must have a lot of cash to throw around. Lord!

[brude]

That Cagney rocks, Wim. Congratulations!

Yep, beat me on the LALD 6S, looks like he "won" over 60 posters, hopefully for Bruce's sake he/she/it is a legit bidder....

Wow, that is quite a purchase. Raziz knew what he/she wanted and went all out to add to their Bond collection.

You and 59 other people

Or start one

I had quite a few lined up and got none. Only even bid on just one cause of how gone they were. Good for him her them.

Good times really as I still have money to buy food for the week.

Why spend money on food when you could give your friends a call to chew the fat, they certainly won't tell you to eat crow they may tell you to swallow your pride, but sometimes you can't have your cake and eat it so better to have eaten humble pie than to eat dirt where you could finding yourself eating your own words.

I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them sam I am.

[AdamCarterJones]

Bruce got some decent prices tonight.
Was very interesting watching it all.
Who is that pi guy? He got a few as well.

The Everything or Nothing poster for $815.00 (around £525.00) was about right going from recent prices.

I have to say that FightClub12's last post was a good one.
And when you think about it, he is right (or at least that's what I think).

Charlie posted a video about this recently, this one (of 500, not 12) sold for $1200:

I'm happy. I consigned 3 DCs that I paid $190 for... they sold for $730!  Those daybills were crazy.

What do u get back once Bruce takes his cut?

[eatbrie]

DCs?  (excuse my ignorance)

I don't know what it is either.

Duplicate Copies.

[Ari]

Haha I thought it meant double crowns, carry on.

[Matt]

Devil Cards.  I should know.

[Harry Caul]

Bingo. The half quad size.

Two of them went over $100 which would be 28% commission. The last one sold for over $400 so it goes down to 24%. I'd guess about 25-26% on average.

[Silhouette]

Even if commission was 50% he still doubled his money and three people are happy as a result
