How do we know the markup is huge if we don't know how much Taro bought 'em for? (Mon Jun 11 23:55:23 2001 )

We don't exactly *know* that Taro is jacking up 
prices unnecessarily...for 
instance, 
their infamous AnC cels.  It seems to me that 
their prices are not 

too far off, because the other dealers with AnC 
cels sell them for about the 

same price, correct?  So...I don't think that their 
AnC prices are 

unreasonable...they can't sell them without a 
markup.  
Just because they 
bought them in bulk does not make them as 
cheap as FY OVA cels.  I think 
that Studio Pierrot is selling a lot from cel 
collectors.  
It's sometimes 
hard to get collectors to part with nice cels, so 
we don't know how  much 
Taro purchased them for...so we can't blame 
them for 
the price.  If we found 
out that Taro got all of its Ayashi and GW OP 
cels for 
$30 each, we could 
blame them for their prices. (^^);;;;;;;

I too would like less expensive cels, but you 
can't really do anything about 

it...Taro isn't "stealing" cels from us anyhow. ^
