Hi,
My first instinct is to say "mind your own
business" >.<
Sorry, but, it is offensive. If you really wanted
to know, why didn't you e-mail me privately
instead of posting the link to an auction that
had already finished and really wasn't anyone
else's business? And why didn't you take credit
for who you actually are?
So, *deep breath*, here is the explanation.
(jeesh, ~why~ is it always me that gets stuff
like this ? ;_; ):
1. I am a huge fan of Heero.
2. see above
3. at least a year ago, maybe more, I lost out on
an auction (on ebay) of the full "pan" cel from
this sequence. I was very upset to lose that
auction.
4. I picked up this other cel (the one that I am
selling) this year from a personal sale.
5. This auction popped up on Yahoo Japan. It
included the douga for the pan cel I lost, plus a
genga for this new cel, and all for about a
little less than the price I had paid for the cel
I currently have.
6. I really want the douga because it reminds me
of that cel that I still wish I been able to
purchase in that ebay auction.
7. I really want the genga, because, dangit,
genga are cool.
8. This cel is the END cel and a key cel (hence
the genga). Why shouldn't I want it? As a fan, I
want to add this wonderful cel to my collection.
9. As a collector, I don't like to hog several
cels from a sequence. I do have a couple
exceptions in my gallery, but mostly I try to
only collect one cel from a sequence. So, I am
offering this one for sale.
10. I also think I offered it for a reasonable
price. It's very close to what I paid for the
auction (25000 yen EMS shipping, as you can
easily note by looking at the auction since you
posted the link), with only a little more added
on to compensate for what I paid for it from the
personal collector.
11. Please compare prices on other sites that
carry Gundam Wing, like Animegame. Is there a
problem with asking $235 for a very nice cel when
other cels are going for much more that are
smaller? Should I sell it at a loss?
I hope that enlightens you as to my personal
transactions and my thought process. I would
appreciate in the future that if you feel the
need to ask similar questions that you mail me
personally.
You can e-mail me
