no need to get all worked up and defensive there, I 
said nothing about your collection, and I was 
responding to darksuzaku to begin with.

perhaps I should have used the word "high-
demand" rather than "high-end," because just 
because a cel is gorgeous doesn't seem to mean 
that everyone is actually after it. the cels that 
create big bidding wars, like the two amazingly 
rare oversized SM cels on mandarake's big web 
auction, are the ones that you won't find anywhere 
for, let's say, $100. I guess that big web auction 
and many YJ auctions are fresh in my mind when I 
say that I don't believe that the top-demand cels 
have gone down in price by any means.

"you must be either looking in the wrong 
places or not in the right place at the right 
time."

I don't appreciate that personal kick. you know I 
have been collecting sailormoon cels for nearly 4 
years, and some of my friends with spectacular 
collections have been in it longer. are you implying 
that we practice dysfunctional collecting? it's 
comments like this that have kept my gallery offline 
where it's nice and quiet.
