Every one of those one million lots started at $1 with no reserve and no buyer’s premiums, and well over half of the items sold for $14 or under, and quite a few auctioned for just $1, $2, or $3 each. Despite their name, they don’t just auction movie posters. They also auction many tens of thousands of vintage stills and lobby cards, as well as all sorts of special posters. In addition, they recently had an entire auction of movie scripts, and they just held an auction of all autographed items and the 1,178 items sold for $35,414.
