I've had dealings with this seller before but only through a deputy.
If the item was taken down, chances are it's either sold privately or will be relisted in the near future. This sometimes happens if the bid activity is scarce and the seller doesn't want to risk loosing money to a lone bidder.
Contacting Japanese sellers dirctly isn't fruitful [in my experience] so I suggest you keep your eyes peeled, it may come back. If it doens't there WILL be more cels to grab
