Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the primary market for vintage posters. Mercari is also a strong option for younger collectors. Local sale via Facebook Marketplace is recommended to avoid shipping damage.
Selling Tips
Always ship rolled in a heavy-duty cardboard tube. Never fold. Use keywords: 'Vintage', 'Star Wars Rocks', 'Costacos', '90s', 'Leia Luke Han', 'Music Parody'. Photos should include close-ups of the copyright line to prove it is not a modern digital reprint.
