Hiya folks! Long time no see!

I had to share this with someone:

http://cgi.ebay.com/SOUTH-PARK-ERIC-CAR ... dZViewItem

The problem? South Park never used cels. Ever. The pilot episode was made from paper cut outs, not cels, and after that the whole thing was done on computers.

And yet 9 people are bidding. To me, it even looks obviously fake. I wrote the seller asking how they managed to get an 'authentic cel used in the show' from a show that never used cels, but with (as of this writing) 5 hours left I highly doubt I'll get any reply.

Wow, .... really makes you question his other cels he has up for auction. Nice catch there - I had no idea they never used cels. I guess it just goes to show the ratings system isn't always the best way to see how good a seller is (seeing as how this seller has an excellent rating)

Hah! That really made my day. I'm guessing that it's people looking to get it as a gift who are bidding on it, since I can't imagine anyone who's actually watched the show would go for that.

My thoughts exactly. I feel kinda sorry for them.
