B'TX Fans: Help me appraise this pan cel? (Fri Sep 13 10:35:21 2002 )

Odd request here.  I got this B'TX cel a short 
while back from a very nice collector.  I've never 
seen the anime, but the scene struck me as 
beautiful (I'm a sucker for pan cels, backgrounds, 
and flowers!) and it was offered at what I 
considered a fantastic price.  So I jumped on it.

Unfortunately, a money crunch has me prioritizing 
my cels in an effort to raise some cash.  I wasn't 
looking to sell this cel, but a friend has almost 
talked me out of it.  Problem is, I'm not sure 
what the B'TX market is like.  They don't seem to 
be popular cels in general.  I'd like to charge a 
fair price, but not give the cel away (I think it 
is easily worth several times what I paid for it). 
 Likewise, I'd rather not bleed this person dry, 
since they are a friend after all.

Please avoid answers that say "a cel is worth 
whatever it's worth to you" and philosophical 
thoughts along that same vein.  I understand that 
line of reasoning, but I also know that a 
collector of a certain series can usually appraise 
a cel to within a certain range.  I can do this 
with most Tenchi cels, for example.  So if any 
B'TX collectors out there can offer me their 
opinion, I'd greatly appreciate the info.  You can 
post here or e-mail me.  ^_^

Thanks!

JP

PS---The scan is cropped on all sides, especially 
top and bottom.  And the cel colors are actually 
much more vibrant in person.
