Interesting. That is a hypothetical question.

Anime Cel Box

Let me elaborate further Im trying to place an order with them . I sent e-mail to check availability and perhaps reserve it. 2 days later in my spam mail I found the following message from them: To reserve a cel or genga and make an order you need to confirm your order 1st. method of payment is paypal only. after receiving your confirmation I wait 5 days for payment. if not received in 5 days I cancel. I figured he or she wanted me to e-mail them again and confirm this order but I havent heard back yet.

I only ordered from Anime Cel Box once, but it did take them about 2 days to get back to me that time. So, I'd say its the norm for them.

However, I wouldn't blanket that statement over all Japanese dealers. Some are a lot faster, some are even slower. Most are pretty fast.

You are quite welcome! Makes sense to me.

I've purchased several cels from Anime Cel Box, and she is extremely reliable, and yes often it takes about 2 days for a response. She came recommended by an A-B mod, and I have not been disappointed.

I believe what she is trying to say is if you do want to purchase the cel, let her know. Email her with your name and address information, and ask her for an invoice and her Paypal info. She will email you a statement with the price of the cel, a 4% Paypal fee - she gets charged, and EMS postage. At that point you have 5 days to pay. She has been very prompt about sending out cels via EMS. If you don't hear back from her within 2 days, send it to her again as she does get very busy.

Hope that helps!

I have bought from her once in the past :)
Good Seller!!! But if you don't hear back from her send another e-mail since e-mails sometimes get deleted because the end up in the Spam folder :roll:

Good Luck!!! :wink:

Anime Cel Box is one of my favorite places to purchase cels. They've been top notch with me. A two day wait for a response is normal, but I've had them reply back to me sooner than that sometimes. But I've never had a problem with them. Trust me, ACB is one of the more reliable cel dealer sites out there.

I've used them before and they were generally pretty good too.

Oh and Cloud is a bot, so you don't have to justify anything to him, plus it also explains why he spurts nonsense most of the time too.
