Ebay seller?

[Red Anjin]

Hi,

This seller seems to have an almost non-stop flow of new swords through his sales. Can anyone comment on what they think about them? I know most are WWII swords (not interested) but occassionaly he has something else.

 

Item number: 270114508421

 

Thanks,

Red Anjin

Stephen,

Thanks for the info. I'm very very wary of ebay swords, if for no other reason that what I've been reading about on these boards for the last few hours.

I take it by your comments you are saying he is trustworthy, (its not a disclaimer, buyer beware and all that, but it probably wont be a fake, right?), so maybe its time I get that tsuba.

Sorry about the name. I was looking for a topic labelled "Rules" when I first came in, didn't realize it was on the index page.

not a problem...all of Eric M's swords are real, some showato but still Japanese swords from or before the WW11, no crappers there, and hes getting much better at letting everyone know if it has a stamp, problems, ect. lots to read here have fun. Never hold back if you have a question alot of good folk here to help.

This seller is not Eric M. Its Mike Yamaguchi. Mike is one of the best sword sellers in the USA in my oppinion. His merchandise is priced very cheap and described in a most honest way. I have bought many bargains from him and it was always a pleasure dealing with him. Mike is a real gentleman and highly recommended.

While I totally agree with your assessment of Mike Y, unless he has two ebay usernames, this is not him. I believe his username is historian333. I think Stephen's correct about this seller.

 

cheers,
