I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired!!! (Fri May 4 16:08:32 2001 )

Yes, another rant of frustration!!
Well, I lost yet another auction, which was on 
YJ... just knowing that it will pop up on Ebay in 
a few weeks. I am not really getting how I can 
bid insane amounts of money and still lose... I 
really starting to feel crippled by deputy 
services, due to the fact they leave a large 
window of time for bid "snipers." If they are 
charging 20% then at least wait for the last few 
seconds.  Then I am given pause to ponder about 
cels and their high prices! I'm starting to see 
that its some US collectors, not the dealers who 
are raping everyone. Think about it ... on YJ you 
see a cel prices go crazy soon as a US collector 
or deputy service places their bid. Yes, in the 
last 30 mins the prices will double or triple. 
Then some of these same collectors place the same 
cel on ebay and drive that price even higher. So 
what do the cel dealers do, they match there 
prices to what cels are going for on the auction 
sites. Thus making the general price for cels sky 
rocket. I really don't mind if I lost a cel to 
another collector, but when its just someone 
winning cels to turn around and sale them again 
for profit ... is what really burns my biscuits.  
Its taking the fun out of this great hobby and 
the money out of all our pockets. I'm just sick 
of it and needed to blow off a little steam. 
Please give me some feedback, to let me know if 
my anger has not blinded my logic!!
