Ok, I can not believe I am going through this and 
have not stopped crying since I have started. I 
am also posting this post here so those who ship 
cels, PLEASE FIND A BETTER WAY TO SHIP THEM!!! IF 
you ship cels this way, with no protection-DON'T! 
PLEASE, if you want to save your business! I won 
that Tasuki Fushigi Yuugi cel of Tasuki with his 
symbol showing and got it in today, but behold-
the cel was shipped in one of those Priority 
boxes, even when it said, "Do not bend" on the 
cel, it was bent anyway! No protection, just 
throw in a flimsy paper envelope, thrusted into 
the thin pressed package many of us get. I'm 
extremely mad, upset and crying because it's 
creased and the box was folded deeply when I got 
it! I can not believe this but the cel is ruined 
with a crease from his eyelash through his wrist! 
It's not deep, it's hard to see, but it's THERE! 
*rents her clothes and weeps her soul out* I am 
so depressed and totaly torn from this! 
WELL...the only good part is that his symbol was 
not damaged! Just along his face some and wrist 
you can see it! But still! Those who ship cels, 
PLEASE, do not EVER ship your cels like this! You 
do not know the damage they can get! The cel was 
not even protected at all! It just was slipped 
inside, no hard cardboard protection at all! Just 
slipped inside flimsy paper and pushed inbetween 
the flatness of the box! The shipping job was 
horrible! HORRID! Plus, the Postal Service ruined 
a priceless rare art of work! This is one of a 
kind cel! The drawing itself is in worse shape 
than the cel. It's ruined while the crease in the 
cel isn't deep, but noticable in the light from 
the eyelash of his through his wrist. The only 
thing stopping me from going and taking the UPS 
by the throat and throttling them is that it's a 
slight crease in his wrist-cel is still in great 
condition-YET da*m the small slight crease! I 
know this devalues the price of my cel a tad-if 
anyone can tell me that...and hope by not much-
I'm going to have a cow now. I paid a lot for 
this-traded also to pay for this with cash as 
well and I know it's value is just to me far 
greater, so I'm goin to the post office and 
demanding satisfaction! I'm so glad I got 
insurance on it-but it's not the money! As we all 
loving cel collectors know-who gives a da*m about 
the money! If it was any other cel, no problem-
but this just is pure HELL! Sorry for this rant, 
but well, my feelings about this whole DISASTER 
needed to be known! I thought anyone out there 
who ships cels-should know this and that I hope 
in the future you PLEASE, do not package cels and 
send them in a flat box like this! I WILL NEVER 
BUY FROM YOU AGAIN if you ship cels like this! 
Change your shipping ways please! I use cardboard 
protection in a big fat yellow bubble wrapped 
envelope, inside a full upright box! I give 
layers of protection and it does not take much 
money and time to do this! You guys who have 
gotten cels in those priority boxes, no 
protection or anything and just slipped in should 
understand my pain and anguish at this, I hope. I 
never thought it could happen to me, but well-
please, take that into consideration and DO NOT 
ship cels like that any more! I know this could 
have been avoided IF the item was packaged 
better. The UPS are going to seriously hear from 
me and woe the day they did this to Avery! I 
don't know who is in charge, but well...heads 
will roll! (Excuse the severity of this post-I'm 
a tad-ok, VERY upset and mad!)
