Re: Is this a hanken cel? Or not? Or ????? (Wed Apr 9 21:29:52 2003 )

Actually, I was one of the last minute bidders 
on this "hanken" DP cel when it was up for 
auction on Yahoo Japan. I used Rinkya to bid on 
it, but apparently, someone else also used 
Rinkya at the same time. When I placed my bid at 
the last minute, I truly thought I had won this 
cel, but later found out that this other "guy" 
won it. I was so PISSED! The final amount was 
about 55000 yen (my bid was higher), but since 
the other guy apparently bidded a higher amount, 
I lost, thanks to Rinkya! I swore after this 
incident that I would use another deputy service 
for pricey cel items that I really want badly. I 
can't depend on Rinkya! I've been burned a 
couple of times with Rinkya (e.g. my credit card 
was double charged for shipping last year) and 
with my last Rinkya order, which contained cels, 
they didn't send me cels bags, which was 
their "special of the month" offer!

Whether or not it's a hanken, it's still a nice 
cel with a great background. It really burns me 
even more now, knowing that the winner is not a 
DP fan and is trying to sell it at an ENORMOUS 
PROFIT MARGIN! What a &*$*&@# joke! If I had won 
the cel, it would have been a permanent fixture 
in my collection, enjoyed and appreciated for 
years to come. It really irritates me that 
someone bought the cel mainly to market from it! 
I have a friend who is a serious DP collector 
and a terminal cel collector, and with his deep 
pockets, I suspect that he will bid on this $2.5 
cel and win. 

Oh well, that's life.
