I think it's more a case that with the higher 
quality cels around, the "lesser" ones don't sell 
as well. Even those who would buy "lesser" cels 
often wind up unable to afford them in favor of 
one or more of the higher quality cels.

There are still stores that sell the "lesser" 
cels, but they're becoming fewer and further 
between. Most of those cels are now on Ebay where 
(if you do want one) you have to compete with 
know-nothing Ebay bidders who don't have a clue 
that they could get the higher quality cels, and 
so they bid on the "lesser" cels as if those 
*were* high quality.

If that makes any sense. . . I was up late last 
night. ^_^;;

In any case, a lower price tag doesn't mean a 
lower quality cel. The Mosquiton cel below is one 
that I aquired relatively recently - the price 
tag was all of $15 plus shipping. The Wong cel 
under it (which is on it's way to me, so that is 
the seller's scan) was aquired for approximately 
$25 once all deals with the seller were ironed 
out. I don't consider either to be "lesser" cels 
in any way but price! ^_^

Good cheapies are still out there. It depends on 
what shows you collect and where you look. ^_^
