Ohhh, I remember fretting at having to pay 280$ 
for my first Nuriko.  I also remember having 
primo shots of Hotohori and some other 
characters way back when FY cels were just 
hitting the market.  Had I kept them, they'd 
have been worth 2-4 x what they were worth 
then.  Id also still have them to look at.  I 
still have my first Nuriko though ^_^.  I do 
wish I could scooch my collecting days backwards 
a bit, so that I could have gotten more FY cels, 
for cheaper prices.

It's a really tough question.  While I LOVE my 
cels...I havent always enjoyed the 
hobby...especially how broke it's made me, and 
some of the fights I've gotten into.  I could 
have had my own house, or a new car if I hadnt 
started collecting again.  But, I had fun, I 
LOVE what I've gotten.  I dont really regret the 
experience of the past, it was worth it for a 
few years to get some great things that I will 
always cherrish...but it's not something I will 
continue with, or do again ^_^;;;.
