Actually, this is not a "new" policy at all! We first announced it at the start of 2022 (over a year ago), but we were somewhat lax about completely implementing it last year, so as to give our 3,080 consignors a good, long chance to get used to it. But NOW, we are fully embracing it!

Here are the current rules on consigning (this has been in effect for over a year, but we are now strictly enforcing it):
1) All consignments MUST have a solid realistic individual retail of $30 per item to qualify for single auctions. If you want your single auction items auctioned far more quickly, then send them organized as to type, country and size.

2) If you want to send items that have a realistic retail of UNDER $30 (solely to be placed in bulk lots), they MUST be kept separated from your single sale items (either within the same package or in separate ones), and THEY MUST BE SORTED BY SIZE OR COUNTRY (and not be in bags or boards).

3) ALL consignment packages much contain a realistic overall minimum realistic retail value of at least $200.

That is all the rules! They are not "new" as they have been in place for over a year, but a few consignors keep ignoring them, and EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY we will be returning (at the consignor's cost) all packages that break any of these three simple rules.

Three years ago, we ran 140,000 auctions every year. Last year we ran 50,000. By the end of this year we intend to be running 3,000 auctions every 4 weeks, around 40,000 per year. We just can't keep individually auctioning items that figure to sell for $1 to $30 each. They take too much time, and we DON'T HAVE THAT TIME TO SPARE!

And PLEASE! We don't want bottom of the barrel items AT ALL, (like ones in terrible condition, ones that nobody wants, etc)! But since some people can't tell what these are, we will still (for now) allow consignors to send them, but ONLY if they give us the OK to trash items of little to no value.

WE WANT TO BUILD AN EMOVIEPOSTER.COM THAT CAN KEEP BEING THESE BEST AUCTION HOUSE THERE IS FOR YEARS TO COME, AND IT IS ONLY THROUGH STRICTLY ENFORCING THE ABOVE RULES THAT WE CAN DO SO. IT IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF EVERY COLLECTOR AND CONSIGNOR FOR THAT TO HAPPEN! THANKS FOR BEING UNDERSTANDING OF THE NEED FOR STRICTLY ENFORCING THESE SIMPLE RULES
