Cels Forum

I bought my first two cels at about $50 each and I thought
that was *SO* much money! After those two, I refused to
pay more than $50 for a single cel. I did pretty well for 
several months until I saw my first cel of Kaori in her 
black dress on eBay and I freaked and bid $150 on it! It 
ended up at $88 and suddenly $100 didn't seem too far away!
I just keep progressing like that.....

Now, I'm so far gone that paying $100-$200 doesn't really
phase me. At $300 I wince, swallow hard, and pay up. :) At $400-$500, I usually pass and I don't currently have any
that cost that much in my collection. I really think that $500  is too much to pay for a cel...for now. :)

Well, I operate on the mentality of "Gotta get it now or
it'll be gone - I can always sell it later if I find a
better one!" There have been some cels in the past that I
passed on, thinking that I would find a better one and
never did - or, if i did, it would be for an insane price 
that I couldn't afford. In my opinion, it's best to pounce
and think later. ^_^

ROFLMAO - I *AM* a college undergrad and I have to say, that's 
the funniest thing I've heard in a while. :) It depends on 
how much over $100 or $200 you're talking about, but I routinely 
pay that and more for my cels! Unfortunately, in this hobby, 
you either have to fork over lots of money for a cel or
pass it up. :(
