Star Wars Collectors Unite!
I have been collecting Star Wars autographs since 1998. Not all of my signatures are on Star Wars memorabilia. For example, when I met Warwick Davis at a comic convention in New York City, I had him sign a Willow photograph. I also have publicity photos of Sir Alec Guinness and Christopher Lee from the 1970s, and a Natalie Portman signed The Diary of Anne Frank theater poster from her performance on Broadway back in 1998. My current wish list includes Peter Cushing, Terence Stamp and John Williams. I am interested in knowing about the collections and wish lists of other members.

But are there 100 really stupid people out there with $900 burning a hole through their pockets?

Ford, Daisy and Driver on a poster will set you back over $2000. The same money can buy a lot of cool star wars stuff.. I'm not sure I want to go on the $5000+ journey of completing a Force Awakens poster myself.

With Ford and Daisy now both among the "No Send Ins" crowd.....you can't even count on that $2000 price.

I haven't seen anything confirmed about Daisy.. Did they ever announce photos or officially cancel the send in? Im still confused how people bitching about the price correlates to no send in. She's still charging the same price, now it will just be on crap photos, tshirts and dinner plates instead of items people actually want.

I got the email, and this is decidedly the least appealing Ford signing I've seen.
I'm guessing the condition is based on how difficult it is to keep these posters pristine. Although for $900, you'd think they would make the extra effort.

3 hours in, still 28 posters left.
That just tells me that over 70 people have too much money, or too little on the ball.

CA was getting $400-500 for their mint reprint posters on eBay after their signing. They stopped selling them. I think the market is starting to fight back against these prices.

In my view, signed posters have a relatively limited audience. Obviously some collectors are into them, but the downside is they take a lot of work and investment to complete, or it ends up looking like one lonely signature on a giant item. Plus, they essentially have to be framed and take up a lot of space, or they sit unseen in a tube in a closet.
Not my cup of tea. I'd prefer standard sized photos, which may have been impossible due to licensing issues at this time.

I don't like posters very much, unless they're smaller and of superior quality. Movie posters are big, flimsy and tear easily. They're expensive and difficult the frame. Not my cup of tea either. I do get the appeal, but my prefernce is for smaller items.

I love posters, but you'll never get your money out of them. It's like buying a boat.
For $2000-3000 you can basically have your pick of some of the nicest complete Star Wars posters currently on the market. In my experience the market drops off steeply after that. No one is going to be buying Force Awakens posters for $5000 just because that's how much money people sunk into them. They wont be worth that much.
