On July 11th we reached a hair under FOUR MILLION DOLLARS in sales, which is pretty remarkable, since we have such a lower number of auctions now!

As you all should know by now, we had our best sales year EVER in 2020, with over $6 million in sales (and half as many auctions), AND INCREDIBLY AFTER SIX MONTHS WE ARE AT JUST UNDER $4 MILLION SO FAR IN 2021! Part of how we did this is because we clearly do a MUCH better job than our competitors (both for consignors AND for bidders and buyers), and that has resulted in us having the most bidders ever (by a wide margin) and they are bidding higher than ever before. So there has NEVER been a better time to consign than right now!

But also, our sales were much higher because we continue to expand the range of items we auction. In addition to our “regular” items, we have signed items, original art, comic books, toys, games, props, costumes, and much more. We can also auction ANYTHING not mentioned above that is a poster, or ANYTHING movie-related (as long as it has a realistic value over $20 each).

WHY have we started auctioning so many other types of items? Because over and over, consignors would say to us, "It is just too bad you only auction movie paper, because I wish there were more companies like yours"! Then they would go on to tell us about their bad experiences with consigning other kinds of collectibles to other auction companies. So we started expanding our auctions, first adding vintage stills, then signed items, and more and more and more, so that people would be able to consign more and more kinds of items to us.

And we are more than willing to consider expanding into any other area not mentioned above, especially if someone approaches us with a large collection of one type of item. If YOU have ANY collectible items mentioned above, and have looked for a great way to sell them, send them to us, and we feel certain you will be very glad you did! Go to our "no fine print" Consign Page at https://www.emovieposter.com/learnmore/?page=consign and see if what we offer is right for you (as it has been for 2,854 other consignors, over 31 years, and 99 MILLION dollars in REAL sales)!

Because we know full well deciding WHERE to consign can be VERY confusing, we asked our longest term consignors (and one very special recent one!) to write our their experiences consigning to us, to help those "on the fence" about WHERE to consign their items! If any of you consignors reading this would like to share their experiences, please email us with your comments!

I want to alert you to something about auction commissions that confuses many people (and this is the result of an intentional deception, a virtual "Tower of Lies"). Three different potential consignors recently told us that they had decided to auction their items elsewhere, because “the other auction's rates were so much lower than eMoviePoster.com’s”.

We asked them how they arrived at that, and they said that they were told that the 15% they were charged at the other auction was less than the 20% (or higher) that they were charged at our auction. But sadly, that is not at all true. When you factor in the Buyers Premiums that are hidden from the seller, the sellers at those other auctions pay more.

We THOUGHT "everyone" knew better than to think other auction's offered lower rates than ours, because in our ads we state “We charge the lowest consignor commissions at EVERY price level”, but obviously that has not always been true.

So we created a chart that proves it beyond a doubt, and here it is (click on it to view a larger version):

Just to make it crystal clear:
When you consign a poster to eMoviePoster.com that the buyer pays $12,000 for, YOU get $10,800.
If you had instead consigned that poster to an auction that "only" charges 15% seller's commission (but also has a 20% buyers premium, which is true of almost every major auction other than eMoviePoster.com), then after the buyer paid them $12,000 for it, YOU get only $8,500.

When you consign a poster to eMoviePoster.com that the buyer pays $1,200 for, YOU get $960.
If you had instead consigned that poster to an auction that "only" charges 15% seller's commission (but also has a 20% buyers premium, which is true of almost every major auction other than eMoviePoster.com), then after the buyer paid them $1,200 for it, YOU get only $850.

When you consign a poster to eMoviePoster.com that the buyer pays $600 for, YOU get $468.
If you had instead consigned that poster to an auction that "only" charges 15% seller's commission (but also has a 20% buyers premium, which is true of almost every major auction other than eMoviePoster.com), then after the buyer paid them $600 for it, YOU get only $425.

When you consign a poster to eMoviePoster.com that the buyer pays $120 for, YOU get $86.40.
If you had instead consigned that poster to an auction that "only" charges 15% seller's commission (but also has a 20% buyers premium, which is true of almost every major auction other than eMoviePoster.com), then after the buyer paid them $120 for it, YOU get $85 (close to what you would get with eMoviePoster.com, but still less!).

When you consign a poster to eMoviePoster.com that the buyer pays $20 for, YOU get $10.
If you had instead consigned that poster to an auction that "only" charges 15% seller's commission (but also has a 20% buyers premium, with a $19 minimum), then after the buyer paid them $20 for it, YOU get only 85 CENTS.

So when you compare, there is NO comparison! $10,800 or $8,500? $960 or $850? $468 or $425? $86.40 or $85? And the most outrageous of all, $10 or 85 cents?

SO HOPEFULLY THIS MAKES IT CLEAR TO EVERYONE THAT WE OFFER THE LOWEST COMMISSIONS (at every price point) OF ANY MAJOR AUCTION!
