Default Questions for movie poster fans.

Has anyone ordered movie posters from moviegoods.com?? How are the posters conditions when they arrive to you?? Read somewhere that they factory fold them and I am unsure if I want my poster to be shipped that way(folds leave creases and lines and I dont want to see that in a $40-$50 poster!!) Is moviegoods.com, in your opinion, a good place to buy movie posters and how do they compare to Allposters.com? Looking to buy quite a few and I want quality for the money I am spending. Thanks for all responses. Was unsure to put this thread in this forum or the film forum so I apologize if I erred.

I highly recommend moviegoods.com. I've ordered multiple times from their site and Ebay store, always great service combining orders and such. They DO NOT fold the posters, all posters are shipped in a super secure tube. Their posters are also double-sided, so they are pretty much the best quality movie posters you can get as a consumer.

I've ordered from Rick's Movie Posters many times. That's a good place if you wanna try there.

Very few places send posters folded.. unless that was how they were made and shipped back in the day... like the early 80's and older most movie posters were folded for space, but not these days.. they understand a lot of these become collector's items and circular tubes arn't that expensive. I think your safe no matter who you use.

Thanks guys. Preciate it. My posters are all original...but I am considering a reproduction of one or two. How do reproductons of originals fare in terms of visual quality?? Do they look cheaper than the originals or are they just as good...just not an original??

Anyone know where I can get a Mean Girls poster? Want to add posters to the theater room, with one of the best movies ever made to start.

I also want a Dark Knight poster, Juno poster, and more.

I've got a bunch of repros and if you're dealing with a decent company you'll never tell the difference.

LOL, It's actually one of my favorite movies of all time. I guess it's because it came out before I started high school, prepared me for it.

Yikes, that makes me feel old. I was still a manager/projectionist when that came out. If I remember correctly, I built and previewed my old theatres print of that.
