Hey All - I'm a newbie to expressobeans. Very thankful to have stumbled across this community.

I'm the original owner of a matching set/series of all three posters (#219/400). A few details:
  • a. I've been the only owner and acquired them from Mondo during the original sale in 2010
  • b. Due to living circumstances at the time of purchase, I have never opened the package as it arrived from Mondo
  • c. I have all my original documentation, confirmation email, invoices and the package is exactly as it arrived from Mondo (tube undamaged, tape and shipping labels intact).
  • d. Since the package is unopened, I have never actually laid eyes on the posters myself
Needless to say, these have been close to my heart - however, I am considering parting ways with them. Given the circumstances above, I was hoping a friend here might be able to help me address my below concerns as I embark along the process of finding these posters a loving, appreciative new home.
  • 1. Does the fact that the posters are EXACTLY as they were shipped by Mondo help or hurt my resale value?
  • 1a. If help, any suggestions to increase buyer confidence that the item is as advertised?
  • 1b. If hurt, what steps should I take now to address any concerns?
  • 2. Outside of Ebay, does anyone have a recommended selling procedure that is safe for both buyer & seller?
  • 3. If I do sell on Ebay, I believe my lack of seller feedback would limit interest in the item and am considering working with a reputable vendor. Any suggestions?
Any help would be appreciated. And if not - no worries, happy hunting! This community has already been awesome & I've found a few prints I never even knew I wanted. Thanks!
Hey All,

I know this thread has been dormant for awhile, but wanted to share that I’ve definitely made up my mind to sell my set (in the same circumstances outlined above and discussed in detail starting on Page 20 of this thread).

Ultimately, the Mrs. and I have decided to save up and purchase our first house. Of course, while the money will help with the down payment as we start our life together, ultimately I’m realizing that I just won’t ever really have a place to hang these and display them in our home (which was my original intent as both a Star Wars and Olly Moss fan).

All the same circumstances and details shared in the original post from 2015 still apply. Only notable differences are that it’s been five additional years since then (10 since release), we have relocated to Georgia (as opposed to South Florida) and - based on the sleuthing of some helpful posters in this thread - 219 is NOT the edition number, as originally stated, but in fact the Mondo SKU from my original invoice.

I’d love to get $7,500 for the set, but am accepting any and all reasonable offers. I’d also ideally like to handle here vs. posting on eBay (unless there’s a total lack of interest), so please feel free to DM with any questions or follow-ups. I’m sure there will be a few given its original packaging + what I gather are a rather sizeable number of fakes based on the most recent posts in this thread.

All the best,
Mike
If I were you, I would open the tube and let the posters flatten (similar to the advice you received in 2015). Then you can inspect them and make sure the numbers match and that there isn't any damage to the prints. I suspect you'll have a hard time selling these without being able to provide photos.

I hope this all turned out well for you. I recently decided to sell my set. I'm going through eMoviePoster auction (seemed the easiest path for someone with no reputation in the community or ebay sales history). If you haven't sold yours yet, that may be an option for you too. You can tune in and see if I've made a terrible decision :D .

I've consigned to them in the past a few times and have always been happy. Their fees can sting a bit for the cheaper stuff, but they usually get good results and I think it's worth the fees to not have to photo/list/deal with weirdos/pack/ship etc.

Thanks bert. That's great to hear. And just to remove any confusion from my last post (the "if I've made a terrible decision" bit): I was only commenting on the volatile nature of auctions. Everyone at eMoviePoster has been AMAZING to work with. Totally agree that the fees will be worth it.

Yep, understood! It's always a nervous wait with a bit of fear when it's a no reserve auction. Good luck, I hope you get a result you're happy with.

These end in a few HOURS at http://auctions.emovieposter.com/Biddin ... d1=6042682

Funny how the consignor was asking here for anyone willing to pay $7,500 for the set! I hope for his sake it does REALLY well, but you can never tell with auctions.

He's only ahead about $250 (after fees) over what he was asking here so far. Hopefully your stable of donkey racers comes through.

Edit: extra 9 hundo not bad. Everyones a winner!

The consignor and the person asking for $7500 on this site are different people. Not that it matters.... Just felt stupidly compelled to set the record straight.
Thanks emovieposter for the fantastic service. Greatly appreciate you were there to help me out!

Not true! Unlike EVERY other major auction, we not only have NO buyer's premiums at all, but we also only charge 10% for over $10,000, so the consignor got WAY more than the $7,500.

I need an Empire or would also buy a set. Posters do not need to be mint as I will be framing them. Please reach out if you can help. Thanks!
