Say hello to the newcomer!

Post by Olivier »

Hello everyone!

Just thought I should introduce myself here. In fact some of you already know me as I have been posting on the animanga forum for over 5 years, but decided to come here only now.

So my name is Olivier, I am French and currently live in Tokyo. I started a new job in this city 2 weeks ago. I mainly collect Saint Seiya and X/1999 cels.

I already took advantage of one week-end to visit Mandarake Nakano and Shibuya. I realised that many cels never reach the online auctions, therefore one has to be physically there not to miss them. On top of this there is a quick turn-over: between Saturday and Sunday, many cels had gone, and new ones had arrived. I will go there as often as possible - not too often though, as this is each time 45 minutes subway + about $5...

I would be willing to get you people of this board cels you like in the shops here in Tokyo, if only I had a way to know what you are looking for when I see it. If you have an idea... The fact is appart from the series I collect from I am unable to determine if cels are worth it or not.

I would like to attach a couple of pics I took at the stores but can't find how to do it!

Regards,

Olivier

Welcome to Beta!

To post images you need to host the pics on a different site and then make a reference to them using the [img] tags.

Hello,

Take your coat off and stay a while.

A haiku would be much appreciated. :D

Hi Olivier, and welcome! If you need image hosting, go to www.photobucket.com It really couldn't be simpler to use. Lol! And be careful what you offer! Everyone here has a wishlist of cels they're aching to get their hands on. :wink:

Hi there!

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
