Fine, how did you get them?  
If you want so badly for people to know the 
truth, then tell us.
I'm simply going on info I've gotten over time, 
and as a collector that has sold cels but is not 
a dealer, I don't know of other ways.
As a collector that's spoken to other dealers, I 
don't know of other ways- besides the 3 I listed.
I said what I thought based on what has been true 
of other series where the cels popped up for sale 
without having been released by a studio.  
It's not an outrageous idea, and it's one that 
others were probably having, though they were not 
inclined to speak up about it.  
The original question was, why are AnC cels so 
hard to find? and then it seemed to follow--But 
there are a few cels, how come those are for sale?
If you don't want to follow the actual thread, I 
don't know why you keep posting.  You've 
obviously stated that your cels aren't stolen, so 
if that was what bothered you, all should be well 
now. 
Perhaps I don't have your vast experience in cel 
collecting and dealing, but I'm not ignorant 
enough to take every dealer at his or her word.  
I've run into many dealers who knew a lot less 
about the cels they were carrying than I did.  
You've already made some slightly misleading 
statements or at least not quite valid 
statements, and I can think of another occasion 
where you were wrong about something cel-related, 
but it's not that big of a deal, people are wrong 
sometimes.  I was obviously wrong to think your 
cels might have been stolen.  Your site has some 
nice cels.  It does seem odd that an animation 
studio would sell cels to 2 american dealers and 
no japanese dealers- but you say they're not 
stolen, so fine. 
You're out to help yourself sell cels, that's 
fine too.  I'm out to help other collectors that 
share some of my interests and let them know that 
there are some strong possibilities that things 
are different than a dealer might lead them to 
believe.
I still don't see why you seem so defensive- I'm 
not trying to attack you, only help a collector.  
Maybe you should try re reading the posts and 
look at them from our perspective.
