My bad, I was not attempting to call Sean's poster stupid; I've deleted the post. My intention was to say if we are all hobbyist then the cost and losses shouldn't matter. There I go sticking my foot in my mouth. I should concentrate on my collection rather than interjecting on others... 
My deepest apologies Sean, your a serious collector and I did not mean to diminish your outstanding purchase!
Thanks Charlie. When i first read your post my immediate thought was "and people wonder why the Ron Borsts, Ken Schacters, and Todd Feiertag's of the world don't come on the boards more..."
My post was not an attempt at bragging on price, it's not something I ever do. If you look through my posts on this and other boards, I don't believe i ever mention price when showing items I've purchased, or talking about what we sold at Cinevent or anything else. But since this was a public auction, the price I paid for this piece is already public knowledge, so i just thought it cool to show the screen shot showing I won.
But price really has nothing to do with how much I love certain pieces in my collection. For several years I had the advance style Frida one-sheet hanging in the living room over my TV because I loved the poster and it can't be more than a $25 piece, and even now some of my favorite items are things that were purchased (or valued) very low. I love the movies and the posters - not the price tags.
