new online shops

[Joost]

I have not bought any cels or sketches in I think 5-7 years, so I think the market may have changed a bit.
Almost all my old links to online shops are death or gone.

Are there any new places I don`t know about? any hidden gems?

Or is it all Mandarake / YJ / Ebay ?

I would love to know if there are new ones I have missed as well.... Seems almost all have closed.

However, I mention since you didn't list him, that Curt with Asylum Anime is still very active. Midori as well.

I am not so sure about Curt (Asylum Anime) any more. He looks like he gave up trying to set up his new online shop. There are 3 cels only and last updated in 2014.

Supposedly he's still working on it. I buy from him via e-mail, though I do look forward to seeing what he brings to Anime Boston. (I go to Anime Boston every year. ^_^)

Real live dealing in cels and sketches is non existing here in Belgium so I have to go on online shops.
The ones that still exist seem to have still the same cels as 10 years ago ( well, at least in the shows that I`m interested in)

I will say that after a long dryish spell, YHJ is becoming more interesting of late. This weekend I indulged in two bid wars over some nice lots (eight in total, all but one contested, all knocked down to Sensei, praise to Tezuka-sama). After a long time of picking off random (but underappreciated) pieces at the opening price, it was surprisingly bracing to jump into a battle situation and find it just as involving as it was ten years ago.

[Joost]

And you`re still using the same deputy service?
That it is still involving I believe with all my heart, a nice hunt always is
What about the prices sensei?

Yup those to Wendy, but I like to see more, where are those affordable Ghibli cels

where are those affordable Ghibli cels

Where there ever any affordable Ghibli cels?

Has anyone here bought from this shop? http://www.cel-ga.com/12-anime-series
Man, their prices are high

[Joost]

Oh, I did some nice buys in my days, to bad I sold some too, better kept them, seeing those prices

Saw that new dealer, overpriced for that quality. Was hoping to find some more new dealers.

Maybe now it's a good time to start a new cell / sketch business?
