In the guide to cels somewhere....

Excuse me, (and this has nothing to do with Funkotsusaishin
personally, but Glory's argument) but I don't see the validity 
of your argument at all.
People like these are driving up the costs of cels for everyone.
Look at it this way: you say we should be grateful to these
people for offering us a second chance to get these cels we 
may have missed the first time around.  However, would we 
really have needed this 'second chance' if these middle-people
hadn't snatched them up in the first place?

I think its really pathetic and shameful that some pseudo 
cel dealers are out to rip off their fellow cel collectors
for a quick buck.

I don't buy into that argument at all that the prices will drop.
Fine, they'll drop, but whats the point in posting higher prices
in the first place then?  Do you really believe such people
purchased the cel only to break even or even lose money by 
dropping the price after auctioning other things on eBay?
If such a concept were feasible and efficient, why wouldn't 
everyone (who has the financial capability) simply purchase 
a cel for $100 and then auction a bunch of other cels on 
eBay to help drop the price of the cel and sell it for "less
than half?"
And to be financially able to invest in these cels.... obviously,
you'd have to be doing better than 'breaking even,' if you get my
point...

This isn't a personal attack on anyone, but merely the fact 
that I find the argument majorly flawed.
