Hi,

  Well, i can relate to this, since I am in 
college myself and it is a private college which 
means $$$. And, they messed up my grant money 
when i changed majors, so i am not a happy camper 
about it, but thats another story. 

  Ok, back to cels. I know what you mean about 
$300 being a lot when you are in college. I agree 
with that. Personally, i have a lot of cels, and 
only a small portion cost me over $300. 
Basically, for me to spent that much, it has to 
be one of two things:

A.One of my favorite characters
B. A really lovely cel of another character that 
i love the instant i see it.

   I really try to stick to that since i can't be 
shelling out $300 for cels on a regular basis. 
Maybe when i am done with school and have a full 
time job i'll be able to =)
  
  If the cel is of your favorite character, i say 
go for it. there is nothing worse than regret for 
not getting a cel. but, if you are lucky, the 
same sequence comes up later and you get another 
shot at it. but, that doesnt always happen!

  Good luck figuring it out and good luck with 
school!
