Well, I've only offers for some of my cels and 
well, only had two-three rejections. On cel I 
offered like 6 of my cels for their one, but yet 
they did not take it. I finally learned one day 
they sold it to another for some offer and was 
devestated and upset as well. YET, had to go on 
because there WAS a reason for it. Trust me...I 
got an even better dream cel that is my baby 
after my lose. ^_^ (Tasuki & kouji) I'm glad they 
didn't inform me or tell me about selling it. I 
think it's fair for the moment if the collector 
just sells on the moment to whatever e-mail come 
their way though. They might not want to deal 
with a few parties fighting over it and the price 
gets out of hand? Who knows for what reason? I'm 
glad the P.C. didn't ask others for offers from 
others wanting it when getting mine one day, 
because I could never offord more than what I 
paid. And learned one another was wanting that 
cel too and well, it still was sold to me, 
without asking for offers from others. One, well 
I was blessed in this because no way could I beat 
the other party/or parties involved when it came 
down to it and they would beat my offer because I 
learned they would have. The price would have 
gotten out of hand. I really can't understand why 
they took my offer and won't think about it, just 
be happy it happend. It's Kismet! Maybe in 
respect and fairness to me perhaps because I 
can't afford too much and well, offered a still 
high amount at the time. I really desired, prayed 
for it and loved it and so happy for the non-
competition had the fairness in a way towards me, 
a tiny cel collector searching for something so 
grande. I mean, just sometimes harsh and not fair 
to bring others into the game because it raises 
the price and lose out because they are taking 
offers back and forth. If they on a spur of the 
moment at that right timing needed to sell and 
someone made an offer, they probably took it 
because it was timing wise-they needed money and 
didn't want to get into a large offer war back 
and forth that might take days and too much time 
and effort. Dunno, or maybe they pittied me in 
some way-I'll never know but will kiss the P.C's 
feets forever, because I have my dream cel at 
last. It only took a one time. I believe if they 
turn you down the first time, doubt it will ever 
be sold to you-dunno, my experience. The first 
yes is always a good sign, then a maybe in the 
future. ^_^ I'm a student and don't make much 
have to bite and scrape to get what I can. I'm SO 
happy happy they didn't take any other offers on 
it if they needed to sell and talked to me about 
it as we did. I thank private collectors who 
don't go back and forth between offers because it 
gets too high. It happened to one cel I loved and 
had to drop out because $200 for a $15 cel wasn't 
worth it. ;_; It's just not fair to whoever made 
a sudden offer and well, if the collector wants 
to sell it to someone all of a sudden...dunno... 
I on one hand I don't make any promises to no one 
unless I mean it though. I always keep it no 
promises a lot of times because the private 
collector or like I, might not know what may be 
up on the table if they need or I need to sell. 
Or a trade will come my way and I have to fork 
the cel over to someone else. I still wonder why 
in God's good grace the latest catch of mine, no 
other people were involved and they sold it to me 
and didn't even try to involve others. @@ I'm so 
GRATEFUL. *kisses P.C.'s feet* It was a miracle, 
believe me and well, it was fated to be that way. 
I will say this, if you lose one day, you will 
gain something even more better afterwards.
