Yes, we've all taken a law class before in 
college. We know what constitutes a monopoly and 
what does not. My post had nothing to do with 
Anime Link holding a monopoly over the cel 
market. I was simply stating my own personal 
distaste for their selling practices regarding 
consumer fraud. And, as I prefaced in my 
statemment(If you had read it), I was not 
speaking for Yann. Yann's post was about Vampire 
Hunter D cels and Anime Link's CLAIM that they 
owned the sole rights to their sale. My post 
simply took that sentiment of Anime Link's 
business tactics a little further. I appreciate 
your input on this situation, but please remember 
two things: Rick Alonso has never publicly proven 
that he owns the rights to sell VHDB cels on an 
exclusive level. And, please do not make a 
blanket statement about a situation you do not 
fully comprehend. I did not further the 
discussion about the VHDB controversy because I 
am not a dealer, and I have no first hand 
knowledge except for what Yann and a handful of 
others have posted on this forum. Therefore, I 
choose not to speak out of ignorance on a 
subject. With Yann's statement, I merely felt 
that it was time that people on this board, 
without fear of reprisal from Link, be able to 
voice their frustrations over their own dealings 
with Rick and his unscrupulous way of doing 
business.
