>>its kinda 
twisted to buy one and then sell your other 
one....

So you're not allowed to replace old cels with 
better ones, if the opportunity comes along?  
Jesus, get a clue!  We're not collecting for each 
other; this hobby is an inherently selfish one.  
Everybody wants the best possible cels (though 
what's the "best" is obviously a matter of 
taste).  If people choose to help each other, 
good; but they're not obligated to do so.  

I'm sorry if it sounds harsh; I don't mean it 
to.  I've made lots of good friends doing this, 
and had fun too.  It's just getting a little old 
when a collector can't do what he or she wants 
with his or her own money and cels!  There's a 
world of difference between Yann (who is, as far 
as I'm concerned, above reproach in these 
matters ::end gratuitous sucking-up now::), and 
the obnoxious fools who have been screwing up the 
market for at least as long as I've been around.  

There are greedy bastards out there--there always 
have been, and always will be.  If other people 
choose to encourage them, there's very little you 
yourself can do.  Tend to your own matters first, 
and worry about the rest of the world later.
