Round 7 and counting...

Yep, 20 cent listing day means stuff goes back to ebay...again. And again...and again. Please almighty cel gods, will most of them please sell this time??? I think a few of these I really have listed 7 plus times and still no takers-mainly DBZ.

That does bring up an interesting thought though-is the cel market in the US (ala ebay) flat? It used to be the hardcore cel collectors regularly trolled ebay for stuff, and fought just as hard (if not harder) for the cels there as they did on yahoo japan or other foreign auction sites. And now, with the proliferation of the deputies, it is easier then ever for people to sort of leap over the "cutting of the teeth" stage-which is pretty much what ebay is...I mean, if most cel collectors had access to selling via yahoo japan or the like, I highly doubt they would be selling on ebay at all. Or perhaps ebay has just become too much of a giant garage sale-people trying to get what they paid or a lot more for their items, while buyers look at them and ask if they are insane. I mean really, asking $500 for a stained golf bag you claim was in Caddyshack doesn't make it really worth that. (and yes, that is a real example from a local garage sale I saw about two years ago).

I guess the point of my senseless rant is I really wish I could get what I paid for these cels, even though I doubt it'll happen...on ebay. LOL. But I can dream of that simpler time, when the cel gods smiled, and money flowed like raindrops from the great ebay umbrella, down to us desperate cel folk ;) So check out my auctions if you get a chance!
