This type thing is my worst nightmare.

This is the reason I posted before asking if 
there was anything I could do about fancel 
artists like Forkysanime who make COPIES of 
existing cels to sell on EBay.

Even though Forky writes on her auctions that 
they are copies, what's to stop the person who 
buys it from throwing a sequence number on the 
top and claiming it's the original?

For all the people who said this wouldn't 
happen... guess what? It just did.

I could care less if someone wants to make a 
fancel of my cel for their own personal 
collection or to practice their skills or 
whatever. I do however get upset when I see these 
cels on auction. Even with a signature on the 
cel, most of the time I bet it can be removed.

Perhaps after seeing this sort of scam created to 
rip off collectors, fancel artists will start 
showing a bit more responibility regarding their 
wares. I am glad the fan artist came here to let 
us they know made it. However if they weren't 
making these copies and selling them this problem 
would never had arisen.

I'm sorry to sound harsh. I rarely post and when 
I do I prefer it not to be on a contraversial 
subject. But for all the people who say the 
owners of production cels have no rights and 
should stop being such babies about it, look at 
what can come of it.
