Re: "extremely rare" = ? taking my page down... (Wed Jul 14 18:25:56 2004 )

what designates an extremely rare cel? I (perhaps 
wrongly) assumed that most of what I put up for 
offers this time was pretty damn rare - a Fushigi 
Yuugi harmony cel, a Mahoromatic pan cel, 
Sailormoon henshin/bank cels... I didn't put up 
my entire collection, just the part that I was 
willing to wittle down. are there cels in my 
collection rarer than these? of course! but those 
won't leave my collection, so I offered up what 
can leave.

since it seems the people of the forum seem to be 
offended by offer scenarios, I will take down the 
offensive page and put my cels on ebay as I have 
been doing. last thing I want is to piss people 
off. the thing I don't like about ebay is that 
though I might make more money, the buyers are 
often total strangers. it might just be me, but I 
much prefer selling to people I know. 

unfortunately most of us who start these offer 
periods have trouble putting a quick and clean 
value on our cels. yes, the sellers are just as 
indecisive as the buyers who can't decide what to 
offer. on top of that, let's say I paid $100 a 
couple years ago for a cel that I think might be 
worth $300-$500 today, but I'm not exactly sure 
where in that range to price it. what do I do?

in any case, I am happy with the offers I did 
manage to get and will be letting the other cels 
loose on ebay. at least that way I can just set a 
random minimum bid and watch the price rise above 
my expectations. 

please don't interpret my post wrong, I am in no 
means angry, I just don't like pissing people 
off, no matter how indirectly.
