For those of you who know a lot about movie posters....
Are these decent prices for what I found:
RUSSIAN ARK $24.00
HOUSE OF MIRTH, THE $24.00
ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER - Glossy - $26.00
DECALOGUE, THE - Poster $26.00
MATADOR - Poster $24.00
JEAN DE FLORETTE - Poster $42.00
MANON OF THE SPRING - Poster $31.00
I know many might say "If you want them badly enough, then it's worth it" but I want to know if these are reasonable prices, and I'm not being gouged. They are all originals.

Those prices are more than reasonable.
You've got to understand that 'art and foreign' film posters are much more rare on average than mass-printed Hollywood ones, and often are used and in various conditions as a result. I have been after a few and the rarer ones go above 3 figures easily.

All originals, oh, and I added another poster
of Manon of the Spring.
Any ideas on how much an original Reservoir Dogs poster costs?
The guy said he'll give it to me for $110. I still say ouch.

Yes, there weren't many of any of those printed since they had limited runs. MATADOR, especially, should be an excellent buy.
I'm always on the lookout for posters from the 70's and 80's - when I found an unfolded HALLOWEEN poster on eBay, I was suspicious. I got it and found it to be original so I'm happy. Still, with all the reprints to be found, you really have to be careful and order only from established companies. My favorites are: Rick's Movie Graphics, Cinema City, Arnold Movie Poster Company, The Poster Pit, and Movie Poster Place (no website, however but they're located in Lansdowne, PA. and take fax and phone orders.)

yes. very nice prices. paid at least double what you paid for your Jean De Florette poster for my Fargo poster. It's in great shape and original, so it was worth it to me.
