" IMO, I think that possibly a better solution for
eBay to consider as well as other auction houses
is to separate production/reproduction cels from
fancels completely and place them into their own
respective auction category under "anime fan cels"
and not mix them in with production and
reproduction cels altogether."


 I really think that is a good idea and have 
thought about that myself whenever I'm searching 
through eBay. A lot of people search under "anime 
cel" so wouldn't that still bring up the fanstuff 
even if the title was listed under "anime fan 
cel"? Personally I don't care if people 
commission a fan cel through websites but the 
auctions irritate me. A lot of them are just 
randomly done and then offered up for sale. (some 
of them pick really awful images to use too which 
is strange) I think I'm a little grumbly because 
lately I've seen the word "hanken" used in the 
description title for some auctions recently and 
that is just plain silly. However, I am much too 
lazy/busy to be emailing other people about. 
Someone sounds like they're on a Jihad against 
fan cel artists, lol.
