I agree with Sovereign.  The high end, no the 
highly sought after cels are still high in 
price.  I just saw 2 SM cel on YHJ go for over 
$500 after depty fees. I've even seen backgrounds 
& sketches go for over $200.

Did you get your "great deals" from a personal 
collection that was taking offers?  If so, most 
of these poeple were probably in desperate need 
for some cash. So, they desided to sell that 
particular cel to you & take a loss.

I have been collecting for 4 years now & I have 
seen SM go up & down.  Personally, I think the 
cel collecting hobby hasn't changed much.  The 
only differene is most people are really in need 
of some cash & here is where you can get some 
really good deals.

Also,  I don't think it's nice to slam other 
people comments.  The forum should be used to 
voice your opinion & your opinion only.  If you 
disagree with her comment, that's fine.   But 
don't go slamming it.  Why not come up with 
another comment to back up your stament instead 
of saying something that would be considered 
hostle, nasty or even attacking.

This is just why opinion on this.
