I'm not much of a collector (besides actual anime ) but that's very cool stuff, meryl.



Thanks for taking the time to take a picture.

[Carlito]

Nice collection! Did you get all this stuff from E-bay?

[BowevelJoe]

she got most of it from me...i was wondering where all that stuff went!

[Spirit]

nice nice nice
very cool collection you got there meryl
I would wonder where you got all that from =P

[merylsilverburg]

Reid: It was no problem at all to take the pictures. I'm glad everyone enjoyed looking at them.

Yes, I got everything from Ebay. Cost me a lot too, because most of the stuff (including the RK Memorial Box) were really rare, so the bids went pretty high. However none of these items were as much as my Revolutionary Girl Utena, Anthy Himemiya Cosplay costume. That costume went up to $600.00....... I didn't know if you guys wanted to see that either, so I didn't take the picture. But, yeah, I got everything from Ebay because when I'm into a series, I go and try to get all these rare items, so that way, later on, they won't become so rare that they go up much, much higher than what they're worth. For example, the Vash Sunglasses....I got them for $120.00, when they first came out, but now, if you go on Ebay now, they're worth $200.00 or $250.00 or more. Yeah, so sometimes it's really better to get them right away instead of waiting till they're out of print, because Japan doesn't keep most merchandise for long.

Ha, well I wish I could, but I can't fit into it.... After I won, I forgot to ask her to adjust it for me, so when I got it, it was for....what? A size 0 chick?!?! I can take a picture of it, but nope. You won't be seeing me wear it, sorry.

Thank you Macceh^. I'm not sure if I can collect any more, though.......I've been saying goodbye to my $$$ lately.....

Fortune: Yeah, $600. It was me and this other person who wanted it sooooo badly, so we kept going at it. After I won, the guy even e-mailed me and said, "I can't believe you did that." He said it was supposed to be a gift for his girlfriend.

Hylas: Thanks. I don't have much more stuff, plus I don't want to fill up the PS2 Fantasy Gallery space with my pics, when there are people who want to post their art, so.....maybe I'll post more later when I accumulate more. *looks at empty wallet* On second thought.....

[BowevelJoe]

ahh man, it was for my girlfriend...ah well, its $600 i still have you mean rotten present stealer!
