It's called Supply and demand sweety:( I boughta  
tenchi cel for 6$ beautiful color non stuck to 
sketch...The same cel these days I see going for 
30-50$ or more..it's what happens when a series 
becomes popular:(

I know what you mean though some cels are 
ridiculus..Anime cel collecting used to be cheap 
still is.(if you don't want a to popular series)

But now it's turning out like american cels..it's 
starting to get in the three figure or more 
range..Eerg..I don't  like that but thats how it 
goes..Blah..-.-
