I was once looking at an auction for a cel of a 
certain character, and noticed a fellow collector 
who had a huge collection o this character was 
also bidding.  I *politely* in an e-mail asked 
her about that cel, and she was able to point me 
to a wonderful cel of the same character at a 
dealer that I happily bought.  I think rude 
attacks are completly uncalled for, but being 
polite and asking a more experinced collector in 
a certain series for help can do wonders ^_^
