**Please contact me with ANY questions!!! This will be first come, first served! If you have any questions about the artwork before you commit to buy, still e-mail me! This will be your place in line, and after your questions are answered, if you decide not to buy...It will go to the next interested party in line!**
PAYMENT PLANS
Yup, I take em'. I'm willing to work with everyone on a payment plan. Some of these cels can be expensive, so I know the joys of being able to have a payment plan. Just send me a timeline of when you would like to pay, and we'll work around that. I know things happen, and a payment might not get to me on time, but that's OK. As long as communication of things like this remain open, I'm willing to work around it. BUT, if there's no communication via all available outlets(Forum, e-mail, JACML, etc), after a 2 month period from the scheduled payment date, then you forfeit any payments and the item itself. Fair warning.
SHIPPING & INSURANCE
Shipping & Insurance for the US will be $8.50. Unless you have a heavy item(storyboard sets) shipping will be $11.50(O yeah...This is always way below what I pay to ship, so you're getting a shipping discount!).
If you live outside of the US, please e-mail me for quotes!

***END UPDATE***
Sorry I didn't post this last night as promised, but life gets in the way of some plans...
WHAT HAS HAPPENED
It seems A lot of us grow up, and life becomes real. Over the past 13 years I've been collecting, trading, & selling. This has been a great part of my life, and I only wish I could keep it as one of the main driving factors in it. Sadly, this favorite hobby of mine will have to take a permanent back seat.
Health, Money, & Time issues have all taken hold of the wheel while I drive through this life. My passion still burns for this hobby, however I can no longer continue for it to be a driving force for me. I can no longer ignore health bills piling up, so I can have my next "cel fix". I need to be smarter with the money I spend, not just for myself, but my loved ones & the future family I want to build. I need to put more of my time & energy into being healthy.
Unfortunately, my health is not stellar. In the past year I have found out that I have a spinal deformity that will constantly be sending unimaginable pain through the lower half of m body for the REST OF MY LIFE. I will, hopefully in the next 2 years, need to have that part of my spinal column fused. This is not fun. My mother has had this done 3 times now, and the recovery is not a walk in the park.
I have also been diagnosed with Cervical Cancer. The first time I had cancerous cels show up on a test, I had part of my cervix frozen off. This last time, I tested positive for actual cancer cels. I had a quarter-sized chunk cut off of my cervix. It was sent to the lab to see if all of the cancer was contained in the piece they cut out...It wasn't. My Gyno did burn off a lil' more than she cut out, but it's not a 100% guarantee that she got it all. Also, think of the Cervix like a clock. My first cancerous cels were at 2 & 5 o'clock. these were at 7 & 11. I am going for my check-up in 2 weeks. I'm optimistic, but I'm having some of the same symptoms I had 5 months ago when they took the last hunk of cancer out of me.
My grandmother also died. I knew this woman all of my life. After my grandfather died, Mike & I lived with her and made her sad days turn into sunshine. Sadly, we were kicked out so another part of my family could move in. My grandmother became miserable, and I saw her slowly fade away. She had fallen and broken her hip. She had surgery, but decided not to try and live. She stopped eating, she stopped talking. She would respond only to me(not even to my mom) when I would go visit her in the beginning...Then not at all. Her daughters decided to have her die at home. Since my grandmother refused to eat, it only took 3 days at her home to pass away. The first night she was brought home I was by her side, and she woke up, and grabbed onto my arm as hard as she could, and wouldn't let go. Her sunken, & black eyes staring right into me. Her daughters were trying to calm her down, but she would not let go, or take her eyes from me. It is something that is forever burned into my mind...
Bills...I have them...Like most of you. I need $7,000.00 to pay them all off and be free of bill collectors. Even if I could make half of that in this sale It would be a great load off. I mean, it's pretty horrible when you can't even save money for home repairs, or your future because you're trying to pay off the past.
So, with all of this on my plate, I've been weaning myself slowly off of this hobby over the past year. I still want to collect, but won't. If, in the future, I can afford it, I may grab a piece here & there, but honestly, that won't be for a long time.
Thanks to all of the friends who've called and supported me through these rough times. I know there's brighter times ahead, but you all help light the way through the dark. I'm sorry if I'm bad about returning personal e-mails. I've been so busy with my job and home I don't have time to sit down and really think about the important things in my life.
I still love anime, and will actually be giving a presentation at our local anime convention, Naka-Con. It will be over the production of anime. I love teaching, so I volunteered to share my knowledge with those who may not know about all of this stuff. hopefully get a few fresh faces around here
.That being said, here's the info on my Gallery Liquidation:
GALLERY LIQUIDATION
http://mspoe.rubberslug.com/gallery/home.asp
EVERYTHING that you can see on my Rubberslug gallery is fair game.
I will be accepting offers for one month(February 17th) HOWEVER!
The initial offer period will last until NEXT SATURDAY: JANUARY 24th.
At this time, the highest offer gets whatever piece they're after. I will have a minimum price in mind for certain pieces. But, I have taken the market into consideration, and most are below what I paid, some waaaaay below.
That being said, PLEASE do not insult my intelligence. I've said this before, and thankfully it limited a lot of empty offers.
After the offer period, I will put the remainders up for auction. After that, they go up on my For Sale site.
OFFER PERIOD:
Please send all offers to my e-mail:
mspoe@kc.rr.com
Last time I had trouble with my PM box getting full, and missed a lot of correspondence. I can assure everyone my e-mail is now functioning correctly
!All initial offers will be responded to by next Sunday.
If you are unsure of where to start with your offer, please e-mail me. Like I said, I have a minimum price in mind. Feel free to offer the minimum, but keep in mind there may be other collectors out there wanting the same piece.

QUESTIONS?
Feel free to e-mail me! I'll answer all questions about state, backgrounds, size, sketches, super-sized scans, etc as quickly as possible. If you have a question, but no offer, and I don't hear back from you again by the end of the offer period, I'll assume you did not want to make an offer.
