I think the thing to be kept in mind here is that 
even though something is *LEGAL* does not mean 
that it is looked on kindly in a given community. 
It is perfectly legal for someone to resell a cel 
they have just received, HOWEVER. . . In this 
community of ours, there are a great many people 
(myself included) who severely look down on - and 
sometimes refuse to deal with - chronic resellers.
Example? If someone begged my help to get a cel 
cheap off Yahoo Japan only to turn around and toss
it on Ebay, they're legally entitled to do that. 
But they will *never* see any future help from me 
again.

Cels are expensive enough without everyone trying 
to make a buck off them. As an example (since 
Ebay is basically a US auction site), if a cel is 
on a site available to US buyers, why buy it up 
only to turn around and sell it *BACK* to US 
buyers for more? All you're really doing is 
**getting in the way** of someone who might have 
really wanted it for themselves. This doesn't 
even touch the aspect of certain things being 
hard to find. Maybe the person looking for that 
cel saw it at the update and missed it thanks to 
you - but then didn't see it go up on Ebay. (Yes, 
some people don't watch Ebay.)

And if you think this applies to only cels, it 
doesn't. I equally look down on the people who 
stalk toy stores for exactly when the shipments 
come in, then walk out with all the hard to find 
stuff - only so they can put it up on the wall of 
their own store for three times as much. It's a 
pathetic, slimy way to do business.

And those are *MY* two cents.
