Re: The value of the cels? (Fri Aug 14 15:22:21 1998 )

It's quite subjective, honestly. I've seen prices vary 
tremendously for similar cels within the same series. I think
a lot of it boils down to the preferences of the seller (once
you get past quality). Parralax (sp??) is selling nice cels
for VERY reasonable prices. If you were to find the same cel 
on some dealers page, it could be a high multiple of his 
price. A lot has do to with how much one values the cel, how
much they think they can get for it, rarity, and (honestly) 
how greedy they may be. The same goes for buyers. I rate a 
cel's worth to me by the picture, and how much I like said 
picture. I don't think "Oh it's off center, it's worth less" 
or anything like that. A lot boils down to what you want the
cel for. If you wan to COLLECT them, then you are going to 
be interested in rarity, field size, centering, and all those
qualities. If you just want to OWN them and display them, 
then the cel's value is all dependant on how much you like 
the picture and if it meets certain minimum quality standards.
In either case, you can determine a cel's value to yourself,
and shop accordingly.

My meager 2 cents,
Tenchi
