I think most of the problem with YJ is that there 
are cels available in the Japanese market that 
you just wont find here in the states. I have bid 
high prices on cels in Japan and have been very 
satisfied with the cels I have won. However, to 
see cels like a recent Mirai Trunks go for 110,000
(or almost $900) is outrageous. I don't the harm 
in occasionally buying a cel for the price it 
should fetch. Cels from Kiki's Delivery Service, 
Totoro and Akira are always going to fetch a 
premium. While newer shows are going to have 
their rare characters. But as collectors we must 
have some culpability in this problem. We must 
realize that there is a time when we should just 
back off and let the prices correct themselves. 
Believe me, when you collect certain shows, 
finding deals is not always easy. But I take 
pride in knowing that I have never paid more than 
a cel is worth to me.
