    Default Poster Business

    Hello all! About a month ago my printer went down and I had to pull all of my items off of ebay. I have since bought another printer and started to post items back up on my ebay store. Due to the "real job", and and an upcoming second child, I am considering selling my poster business to concentrate on other things. Let me make one thing clear, however, if I don't sell the business I will continue it just as I have in the past. I am in NO WAY hard pressed to sell the business or quit. It's just an idea that I am entertaining. Here is what you would get with purchase of the business:

    1. 1 Epson 7600 large format photo printer.
    2. 1 semi-functional Epson 7600. It could probably be made to work again. If not, it can be used for repair parts.
    3. All of my posters in digital format. Many, many, many hours have been spent restoring these posters in Photoshop. I will include a copy of Photoshop CS3 which is ahhhhemmm....less than official. If you don't want that, you can still print the posters through adobe reader.
    4. All of my original posters. I have the originals of almost all of the posters I sell. I also have MANY original posters that I have yet to scan and reproduce. Stuff like a Makarov poster, some SVD posters, BMP, T72, and many more.
    5. The website www.milposters.com. The site is basic and needs to be edited at this point. It is an excellent starting point for a good web presence.
    6. Over 1000 24x36in posters of the propaganda poster that I use for my avatar. It features a man holding a Mosin. I sell these for $4 each, so that's $4000 worth of posters.

    Profits on poster sales are generally 60-70% based on the prices I sell at. There is zero overhead. I will give some other expectations to anyone who is seriously interested. SERIOUS inquiries only. Thanks,


    Nathan

    Hi Nathan,

    Can you give me a ballpark idea of how much you're looking to sell your business for?

    Thanks!

    Eric.

    Nathan,

    Did you ever do a poster of the picture "Barbies for Men"? It had the AR-15 carbine with all of the goodies?

    If anyone knows where the posters are available, I'd like to buy one for my brother.

    Default M4 Goodies Poster

    I wouldn't think they would be over $20.00.

    For my business? It would certainly be over $20. PM sent.

    Probably way over $30.00 for a "One Off" I'm sure, but I think you could sell over a hundred on this board alone. I would buy 2 @ $25.00 for myself.

    Actually, this thread is about selling the business, not individual posters . That's why I left the "over $20" comment.
