Thank you for your answer. As you said my post 
was no provocation, I just think it's time to 
discuss about that. I think that kind of 
behaviour is not good. Buying TEST cels for $500 
leads to insane prices. They will only 
contribute increasing the price of real 
production cels. It's like we are creating our 
own speculative bubble. Those prices are just 
not what they should be, and by accepting them 
we make the hobby even harder to follow.*

The problem is cel pricing. If it were paintings 
made by famous artists, there would be 
specialists to tell us their correct price. I 
know some say that art is worth what a person is 
ready to pay for it, but there is also the price 
given by the specialists, that allow comparing 
the value of all the paintings together. Now I 
often see cels going for much more than they are 
worth. I mean come on, a DBZ cel (291 episodes, 
hours and hours long) for $1000, and a great X 
cel (1 movie, one hour and a half) for $400, 
isn't there a problem somewhere ?
