I designed a poster with text tonight and had no option but to choose a royalty of 8.2%. The retail price for this poster is wait for it ! $71.20 
Hi,
Can you send a link to the poster in question please?

You probably chose a large size and quality paper as your default?
I don’t sell posters that much but my experience is to find a middle of the road price/quality.
IMO, the only benefit of pricing way high is you come out on top if the buyer sorts by price high>low.
Just my 2 cents.

I agree that it’s probably this. Archival paper instead of value paper is more expensive. Choose a large size and that archival paper is incredibly expensive.

Large size posters ain’t cheap no matter what kind of paper you get. I have posters for business that are standard at 30x20, but businesses are paying for those, otherwise I would go with 11x14 or 16x20 for regular peeps and let them decide how much money they want to spend.

Hey you have chosen a massive size so its pricey!
Poster prices went as you say nuts with the last poster overhaul. Plus you don’t get the semi-gloss paper variant anymore (“satin” variant if I remember well) and have to stick to a matte print. $27.25 base price (with the base 5% royalty) for a medium 18x24" standard poster is way too much, let alone $40.65 for a standard large 24x36" or $46.45 for a 27x40 movie poster. Add to this the issues with bad packaging and damaged posters mentioned here. Posters aren’t on my top to-do list anymore.

Yup , Wesha will not be making posters in that size again! As Chefcateringbiz pointed out if the customer wants a large they can choose one.
