Buying a bulk of Evangelion (sketch or cel)

Post by iceman57 »

Looking for a bulk of original art from Neon Genesis Evangelion to arrange a contest as I done in the past several times with Fist of the North Star and with the Hajime No Ippo Xmas contest.
Goal is to set an average item price multiplied by the amount of original (cel or sketch) to define the total price, majored with premium shipment to Europe.

Feel free to comment or purpose available quantities and unitaty prices by any way (forum, PM, e-mail).

I would expect that you may find this project to be more difficult than your others.

There has not been large amounts of Eva cels hit the market and those that have tend to command high prices.

The other problem is that there has been a lot of fake cels and sketches out there so it becomes important to know the reputation of the seller.

My 2 Eva cels (nfs)were bought from a YJ seller Godhand777 who was one of the few I trusted.

Thanks for the advices, maybe that'll be more easy to focus to a bunch of sketch and non central characters / robots to avoid copies.
Name was GodHand777 ? Interesting, sound to be a Pachi-slot player who likes to have a triple seven combination.

Maybe betting on the cute Katsuragi Misato, Ritsuko Akagi, staff and various robots is less dangerous (and easier). Raise 20 items as a start would be fine.

I've got a Ritsuko cel up for auction on ebay right now. She has a BIN of 275, and a starting bid of 200. I'd be happy to ship her to where ever her new home is if you win. :) I also have larger scans of her if you are interested. Just send me your email address through pm.

Overpass my budget :D
This is a nice art but as I'll offer it, that'll break my heart (remember all the Ippo and FOTNS gone :cry: ). Maybe rough sketches more affordable.

Ah well.
I'm not sure if the new movies were completely done on the computer, or if they involved scanning in douga/genga.... That might be your best bet.

Seems I'm Voodoo cursed for this contest planning :?
Suggestion is good, so if they are sketch set owners in the audience feel free to send your price (any communication way). Additionnaly I maybe have to mix with classic DVDs and other mass produced items to generate an enough efficient event...
