Excuse me, but I happen TO BE A DEALER, and that is exactly
why I answered your previous message. Yes, it does take a
lot of hard work, years of developing Japanese contacts,
and yes, it does take a lot of money - I've invested 
nearly $20,000 in my shop alone...so don't go telling me
I have NO CLUE!

You really don't bother reading messages through, do you?
People have RIGHTS because they are PEOPLE! They have
the right to express their own thoughts, feelings and 
opinions...The have the RIGHT to express these freely, 
without being oppressed by people like you. You have a right
to express your views as well, BUT, You DO NOT have the
right to be verbally abusive to others! Say what you think,
but say it civilly. If you cant do that, then you should
get off of this forum!

And another thing - as a dealer, this business is currently
my only source of income. I am able to do just fine paying
my bills and purchasing new stock for my shop. I can say
with certainty that it IS possible to get cels for good 
prices from Japan, and IT IS possible to pass the low 
prices onto the consumer. IF YOU are so insistant that it
cant be done, then perhaps you need to find some new 
sources - or get out of the business all together!
