ScreenUsed Live On-Line Movie and Television Memorabilia Auction Slated for March 9, 2013
San Jose, California – February 17, 2013 – ScreenUsed, co-owned by Desi DosSantos and Jeff Castillo, have announced today their company will hold it’s third on-line auction through iCollector.com.
Our first two auctions back in July and November 2012 were successful entries for us into this alternative to selling on our website. We will continue with our unique offering of both the website and auctions. We continue to post at least 4 new items on the website 5 days a week, and based on feedback from consignors we may hold 3 to 4 auctions per year.
Desi DosSantos has stated “We are filling a demand in the market for a mid-tier auction offering – not the million dollars per item level, nor the warehouse blowout level. We feel this auction has many cool items for collectors to add to their collections.”
