I am not going for anything... but there are some decent SM cels out there.

I am IN LOVE with the Grave of the Fireflies cels... I am sure they will sell for alot.

I probably won't go for anything since my funds are low and have to last me through Christmas. I can't believe how high some of the bidding has gotten already - especially on the Totoro's and Sesshy's.

Good luck to everyone on AB who decides to bid!

Hmm...there's some interesting things there. There's several Tokimeki Memorial items as well as some from Saishuu Shiken Kujira.

I think I'd better complete that anime so I can better judge how I feel about it.

A couple of interesting hankens too. I'm not going to bid on either of them though. I'll just save links to see how they end.

Everything's been cleared now. Hopefully I can win the item/s I'm going for.

Oh my god! My number one wishlist item is up there.

Already up so high... broke broke broke I shall be...

I was very impressed by this Fall's Zenbu, but I didn't see anything that would be interested in. Then again, it's car insurance time for me... again.

Though, if anyone sees or has any sketches from School Rumble from Harima's manga, I'd be interested. (I missed out some some about a month or so ago on Mandarake by being outbid by 300-500 yen.)

Best of luck with that job, Captain! We could all do with a well paid job to fund our crazy hobby, *heh*
I agree that DNA2 hanken sketch is beautiful, I associate that image with the series as it captivated me when I saw the DVD cover.

There are two auctions I have my eye on, both have made me feel sick with excitement. If I could win one I'll be a VERY happy bunny

Glee! Rapture! (Well except for my bank account.. Yow!) Totally worth it though. I've been looking for a piece like this for many years.

so did anyone win the aoshi or kenshin?

that's a gorgeous miyu shikishi.

Congratulations to aethel, for winning such a gorgeous shikishi!

Everything that I have bid on (so far) has gone for $$$$, so I've yet to win anything. Nor do I really anticipate being able to walk away with any of the items I'm currently watching.

i'm so happy!!!

i won both my saiyuki auctions.

Congrats Kira!

And thanks everyone for the kind replies. I had to wait a couple days for paypal to clear (also appreciate the advice on the best way to pay), but I got the tracking number for the shipment Friday. I can't wait to see it in person!

It's been a long time since I bought something I was this anticipatorily giddy about.

Aww my eternal apologies Krafty I completely missed this post of yours! Damn straight though if I'm realisticly going to fund this hobby and not fall massivly into debt I need soo much more moolah rolling in. And yes it was good, but wait and see what I've got coming soon on my website he he it really is pretty cool... Well at least you'll certainly appreciate it.

Anyhoo I'm curious did you win anything you were after?
