In that case, I'd say you don't have many options. No matter what a package says, nothing that will reliable hold things up is garunteed to not leave a mark. So...
1. No wall decorations for you.
2. If you have removable shelves or some such that are painted with the room paint, take it to home depot or some place like that. They will mix up a batch of paint exactly matching that colour, garunteed. If it still doesn't match, it's probably because your walls are dirty, which means you can:
a)repaint the whole room, carefully. They're not going to take a spectrometer and make sure that you haven't done this.
b)sometimes, with water soluable paint, you can take a slightly damp sponge and blend in slight discolorations.
or,
3)Only hang things you want to spend 40 dollars on, 20 for the poster, 20 for the discoloration charge you might possibly incur at the end of the year.
When I was in the dorms, I used heavy duty mounting tape. You can often, but not always, remove it from the walls with a sharp, thin knife with no residual marks appearing right away. But it's hell on the poster.
