Cels Forum

How come everyone always attacks me :*(  I'm not a bad
person!!!  Honestly!!! :)
As far as prices being driven up that may be true for now
but when you think about how the history of different shows
and different charcters and how the prices have fluxuated
over the past few years you will see that nothing lasts 
forever.  Remember how expensive Fushigi Yugi cels used to
be when it first came out in the US?  Well the cels are not
nearly as expensive now.  Prices on cels are all a matter
of supply and demand.  Right now there is a lot of demand
for Sailor moon cels (and I imagine once the Cartoon Network
starts showing the episodes for Sailor Moon S and Super S 
which they now have the rights for) prices will go even 
higher because that will bring in more fans.  Then I am sure
in a year or two when people get a little sick of Sailor 
Moon (except for die hard fans like me :)  ) prices on 
Sailor Moon cels will go down again because demand will go 
down.  

I do have to agree that cels do not grow on trees in japan, 
you just don't walk down the street and find cels and the
easiest to find cels are those from AIC but you can find 
other cels if you look.  I found some really cute Sailor
Moon cels for my personal collection at reasonable prices :)

I just don't understand why everyone is getting all upset 
about cel prices.  Cels are an expensive hobby and anyone 
that gets into it and then complains about prices should 
probably reconsider the hobby or atleast the shows they 
collect from. Cels are not a right but and extravagant 
hobby (You don't see starving people in third world 
countries collecting cels.)  Maybe we should all just relax 
before we decide to complain and think about those less 
fortunate who have much better things to complain about. 

Now to cheer everyone up here is a cute child usagi cel I 
got in Japan.
