Just my opinion...

Actually, I'm probably being foolish in the short and medium term by abandoning movie art prints, especially Mondos (although I still think they will flag in the long run).  I've made a fair amount of money selling the Mondo posters and have lost my @ss on original movie posters.

Well do you want to collect what you like or sell paper for profit?

This sale just proves that the Mondo posters (and movie art prints generally) are red hot right now.  I sold seven of the thirteen prints in just three days for reasonable "Buy It Now" prices (six month average price) and they're getting crazy attention with minimal promotion. I paid $45 for the Tribbles posters just a year ago. But when will the bubble burst (or will it)?
