Im in! Bring on the debt! :$$$:

There are about 8-10 auctions I will be watching, luckily they all don't end on the same day/time. Thats been a thorn for me before....All those Eva cels are great! Spice and Wolf sets, Bebop cels, Lupin III Hanken are nice too. I hope to see many of these auctions wind up in Beta-ites' galleries! Good Luck to all who participate!

Heh. It's currently sitting at 400,200.00 JPY ($4,693.09 USD) with 10 days left. Plus the buyer's premium. 8O

Premium is 10%, right? So, that would already make it at $5,200+ with shipping. Should be very interesting to see how much all these auctions go for this round.

Indeed. And now it has risen to 450,200 JPY ($5296.93 USD). With a 10% premium would come to 495,200 JPY ($5827.95)

And that is with 6 days, 17 hours remaining! 8O

Still your dad's pocket change gleaned out of the bottom of his overstuffed arm chair to modern art collectors. I'm still chuckling over an art dealer's comment after a 2007 auction that netted $325 million in winning bids: "One million dollars is the new 10 grand!"

Heh. Maybe these days a thousand dollars is the new 10,000 yen in Mandarake auctions.

Still not biting on anything, however.

There was that one Mononoke cel I was watching that sold for 961,100 yen ($11,346.40) + 10% fees = ~ $12,700. I think that is the highest I have seen a Mononoke cel like this one go for. I figured that would go for about $6,000-8,000.

Forget the Mononoke cel. Check out this drawing by Rumiko Takahashi.

Extremely interesting, on the way to reach the previous Tezuka handwritten manuscript (early 40s high school manga club manuscript) that reached 11 millions JPY.

Wow...the end price for the Chobits shikishi is insane...

http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/auc_e/item ... 6710100001

905,000 yen...so...with buyer's premium..1,010,000 yen....$12,011.06.

I wonder, at that price, if they really care about the 6 cents /hmm


I'm just tickled I won the item I was going for for a far more reasonable price.
