eMoviePoster sells 100,000 unique collectibles every year, and in 2015 they sold 127,888 items. Every one of the more than 1.1 million collectibles they sold started at $1 with no reserve and no buyer’s premiums, and well over half of the auctions sold for $14 or under, and quite a few auctioned for just $1, $2, or $3 each. Also, despite their name, they don't just auction movie posters. They also auction many tens of thousands of vintage stills, lobby cards, as well as signed items and scripts, all sorts of special posters. They are now accepting consignments for their 17th Annual Halloween Auction which will run October 18-30. The deadline to consign is September 16. Go to their Consign Page to learn about consigning to them for any of their auctions, or go to their Registration Page to sign up and start bidding.
