Oh right, thought I'd share how I lessened the
pain of parting with $145.
I used to collect a lot of toys and posters from
anime, but my interest has really shifted to art
work instead of merchandise. So I focus on books
and cels now, and decided to thin out a lot of
the old stuff I had collected.
So I listed a whole bunch of stuff on ebay
(anime and other stuff) and managed to get
around $70 or so, which took a lot of the bite
out of spending so much on the chichiri cel.
The last item I'm selling (still on ebay at the
moment) is a really rare wall scroll of Tamahome
I bought at an anime con a few years ago. The
weird thing is, I felt more guilty about
spending $25 on that wall scroll then I do
spending $145 on the cel. So I decided to part
with the scroll (which I could not really look
at without thinking about how much I spent) in
favor of getting a different rare/expensive FY
item, which will have more meaning to me.
I don't think I could have really justified
spending that much money though, if I hadn't
sold some stuff in response. |
