Re: Backgrounds

Just wanted to update on FedEx Kinkos color copies. The closest size there is a 11X17 color copy background. It cost $1.20 usd per sheet at the location by me. Fits into 11x17 itoya folder without issues. You can now bring in a usb drive with the images and print yourself at a machine without an ass...

Re: Anyone know which series these 2 are from?

The girl is from Episode 20 of GTO. The character name is Akane Fujita who is playing tennis in this scene. One of the main students has a crush on her.

Re: Backgrounds

Do you happen to know if it is possible to buy 14x10 paper used for cel backgrounds? That I am not sure about. I know a lot of people do color copies. Its not printed on the paper that original backgrounds are on, but instead on whatever places like Fedex Kinkos uses which is a smooth thin paper. I...

Re: Backgrounds

Best place is probably eBay. A standard cel background is 14"x10". Be careful on the size because many of the modern anime have backgrounds that are made for widescreen tv and are shorter and wont fit. If they don't have the size listed send them a message to confirm. Hope you find one you...

Re: Clear bags

Heiko either went out of business or stopped producing cel bags a while back as far as I know. I use BCW Treasury Comic Book Bags a lot off of Amazon. They fit standard sized cels/sketches and backgrounds. It does have a blur to the finish. I recently used a company called Clear Bags through a sugge...

Re: Anime settings - Who makes them?

I think you are talking about settei which are model sheets. They are usually done by the character designer. I used to not care for them starting out, but really appreciate them these days. An original one can go for a lot depending on the series. You mostly see just copy sets out in the wild. Here...

Thanks! Just to add that these particular ones were more the size of post cards and I remember them packed in with the DVD/Bluray sets by Funimation.

Re: Old Japanese Cel Dealer

That takes me back a long time ago! Looks like they have a new website and email address now. Site was updated a couple years ago, but says they also sell cels on YJ. Hope this helps you.

Re: Seeing the same cel listed under multiple accounts

Ok now that makes sense. Originally it sounded like it was the same person just posting on YJ and then ebay to reach a wider market. I was just wondering WTF it was about because I hadn't seen it before myself. Yes I wondered that myself until someone explained it to me. Definitely a scummy practic...

Re: Seeing the same cel listed under multiple accounts

Like I said it is not their cel and are posting it from another source. There are multiple different people trying to drop ship the item, so that is why you are seeing the same cel on multiple accounts. People do this not only with cels but many different items and the market is flooded with these p...

Re: Seeing the same cel listed under multiple accounts

Its a drop shipping scheme where the item is on YJ or Mercari and someone will copy that listing then post it for a higher price on ebay. If it sells on ebay they will then buy it and ship to the seller all without having any stock on hand. As you see multiple people do this on there sometimes with ...

Re: Twenty Years!

Congrats on the 20 year mark!! I also hit 20 years collecting this year. My first cel I got off eBay doing a random search on DBZ and was amazed I could own a scene from the show! It was Goku SS4 with matching bg. Unfortunately I sold it off along with a lot of my other early cels over the years, bu...
