Decided to stop collecting cels due to gas prices?

I haven't purchased new cels in a while. Thought about buying a Macross DYRL on eBay of a Q-Rau suit that was nice for $70, but since prices are a bit steep these days I had to hold off. When it comes to fuel, durable goods, and putting money together for a 20% down payment for a house in So. Cal (approx. $60k) collecting cels has moved down the list.
I've purged most of the collections I've had since high school and college. Sold off my old comic books, PS2 games, Transformers, GI Joe and other toys but haven't touched the cels yet since they take up the least space and still too-attached to let them go.
I know I'll be kicking myself for not getting cels that have popped up on Y!J since Macross cels have x2 to x3 their prices since the last couple of years. Crazy. This week I'm going to sell off some of my golf items and even some Dreamcast games I have (didn't know that some of them are selling for $50 like Marvel vs. Capcom 2).
