I'm not getting into this macro debate (yet?) but I wanted to ask 
a question.  Have you signed this cel to make sure people in
'future generations' of owning this cel don't get confused and
mistake it for the original?  I believe it was Ryochan who 
proposed that we only sell signed fan art and only buy signed
fan art.  That cuts down on the cases of mistaken identity.  
Finding out your bought a fake production cel is a very 
unfortunate event and can happen even if the artist's intentions 
were only good.

Also, if you just wanted to supply people with a fan cel that
they might like, why didn't you just sell it on your webpage
and not on eBay?  There are many cel reproductionists out there
right now, so there is kind of a 'market value' for pricing them.  It's 
getting too confusing right now with all the cels, fancels, and
repos on eBay, I fear some people may get confused, no matter
how clear you are.  I've seen so many eBay "titles" show up
that give no indication that it is a fan cel, and you have to
read the text clearly for the one sentence that explains the 
item is not a production cel, but a fan cel.  This goes for 
everyone.
