If all you who are patrolling Yahoo! Japan and 
Ebay are as dedicated to anime cel fandom as you 
say that you are, put your money where your mouth
 is and stop this senseless posting. You may 
think that you're doing us all a favor, but it's
 just breeding more ill will. And don't even make 
the excuse that you're just informing 
us "consumers" of the origin of these cels.  More
 than likely, whoever is bidding on Ebay probably:


A. Does not speak Japanese
B. Lives outside of Japan

Therefore, they COULD NOT BID ON A YAHOO! JAPAN 
AUCTION TO BEGIN WITH SO WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT 
MAKE HOW MUCH THE CEL SOLD FOR THERE?! When you 
buy a cel from your favorite dealer, do you ask 
him how much he paid for it on his last trip to 
Japan? Do you feel sorry for the poor Japanese 
collector that would have really enjoyed that 
cel, if only some dealer hadn't come along and 
bought it to just to sell it to you and make a 
profit? If the answer is no, then why should you 
worry about cels that originated from Yahoo! 
Japan? Something to think about...

--melissann, the next post I write *will* be 
pleasant, I mean it this time!
