On the S2s, we very accurately describe them, and we have NEVER had anyone complain after receiving one (because they DO look far better in person) and we have had many people who have sent us happy e-mails telling us they have framed and displayed them.

As of right now, many of these are at insanely low prices, and even the highest priced ones are still HALF of the original retail prices of $325 each!

I put in an advance bid of $301 for the Woman In Red and some chump bid it up to $311, $14 less than the retail price! Freaking crazy-azz EMP bidders....

Mel, if you're willing to spend $301, why not just splurge on the remaining $24 and get it from the source?

Everybody knows you don't really appreciate a woman unless you win her!

So I decided to buy it retail after all. Gotta have at least one of the S2s and it's one of the best of the remaining stock.

It's already 10 times the estimate and just two bidders.  Serious money + serious Potter nerdage....

I will never understand why people like signatures so much.  Ooohhh. Daniel Radcliffe wrote his name on a piece of paper.  Well, that's worth $10k.

What do you guys think...  I'm about to buy this...



There are 3 versions of this poster, blue (pictured), red and purple.  The purple, which I couldn't find a picture of, is the one I'm about to buy.  It's also much rarer than the blue one.  Mint condition, $1,500.

Opinions?

If you can get it for $1500. BUY IT. That's a reasonable price.

Im really not qualified to answer cause I have never spent over $250 and probably never will but I love that poster. I have a baby re release hanging above my monitor as I type. I would do some bad things for an original one panel. Buy it! One life! Enjoy!

Notice Z has it below a McGinnis?
It does look nice framed, Z.  But T will only squirrel it away in a drawer for eternity.  wynk

Thanks Chris, but that wasn't really the point of my question.  I have many posters worth $1,500 or more, and hopefully will get many more before I die.  The question was more... is it worth it, to which Silence seems to have an answer.  There are so posters that I would spend $5k on in a heartbeat, and some that I need comforting on.
