  1. i have around 60 pieces of stoneware,, diff designs and birds,, there cool to put around the house.. ill send you pics of the one i wanna get rid of.. i called christies auction house and they wanted me to make out forms, send pics, then they wld call me down the road to look at them.. its more of a hassel then its worth.. Im not making a dime off any of these items and i really dont have hours to spend to try to sell them. I have had 1 guy come to the house and take pics and look but he told me from the start he didnt really know a ton about swords but wld make a offer,, i know what my grams is looking to get for the lot" 26" swords,, so now i just gotta find some one that wants to fly in and take a look...todd
  2. Hi, no the stoneware is the only thing i collect. I only have one piece i wanna sell thats it,, but the swords i still have alot of them.. you said auction house above? Which one are you referring to..and glad you like the books, i have more,, but these look more like paperback reading books.....Todd
  3. Hi, can you pm me with your # and i will give you a call soon as i get a free min with the items.. They are all locked up in a room...thanks...todd
  4. Here is a pic of the pole arms and yes these are for sale.....Todd
  5. Ted,, thanks for the email and i have no problem donating to your web page,, i can donate a amount of a cool item i have,,, i know the item wld be greatly cheerish.. Is donating a item possible? Todd
  6. i took more pics of the tsuba,, think it was the one you were referring to...todd
  7. Well one reason i sell on ebay and not deal with people i dont really know is i gave a guy my # off here when i first started and so far i have gotten 23 phone calls in 2 weeks,, thats a little crazy.. and for that it makes it harder and harder to trust anyone...todd
  8. I wld love to have some one come here and give me there thoughts and appraise each item for me,,if you know of anyplace within a few hours i wld even travel there,, i live in albany ny...Todd
  9. I understand where alot of you are coming from,, but also you have to understand where im coming from.. I have a family member leave me with HUNDREDS of items that she does not want but wants to sell to pay for her familys debt. These items i know absolutely nothing about so i find this web page to help me with info on what items are and what items are worth. Now here is my daily work schedule and you tell me how i have free time to research more.. work 6-6 6 days a week,,planning a wedding that is gonna happen in a few months, along with doing house and family thngs, cooking, cleaning, plowing.. Now im also trying to do NMB as much as i can to get info on items and not sell a 1000 sword for 200, i get 10-15 calls a week of people who are local that some how heard about these items and wanna come down and look threw them and i cant trust just some guy to come in my house and buy things that i know nothing about..I have hundreds of paper work books that he has left me, i have tried to read them but just like you know,, more then half the words in there i have no clue of there meaning so there fore me reading the book gets me no where as well..Sorry if i have came off rude or ask alot of questions, sorry i broke up the set of items which i still cant even prononce,, sorry i didnt take more interest in the items when my grandfather was around.. But this is life,, people make mistakes when there not sure of something,, i cld have a guy come to the house and buy it all and wash my hands,, but im not,, im trying to do what i can to sell items and hope that they go to people who are going to cherish them and not resell them for a huge profit.. I didnt enjoy going to the house and pulling things from the wall to sell,, but i had to do it,, and all i want now is to help her and get his respect as i know these were his prize pieces.......TODD
  10. wow, i cant believe all the hate towards me over asking a few questions,, i came on here to see what things are worth so i could sell them to pay off debt of a family member and you people are just here to critisize what i do wrong or right. Everything i put on here not one person has made me a offer but yet when i sell on ebay you say im going to lose money. Message boards are for the intent to help people understand another item and the concept and value of that.. But i see this page is not about that,, its about downsizing other people because there life doesnt revolve around another persons interest. And STEPHEN i must say you are wrong in where people dont like to be asked questions and learned. My grandfather who had all this amazing items was a teacher in Japanese and he LOVED to teach people about it, even if it was to sell or to learn,each to there own.. But thats fine, i wont post any more pics on here as i see you guys are interested in talking about whats out there, but not what could be bought. And wanna say thanks to Estcrh for the kind words and thanks for all the help. I will continue to deal with you and your open to purchase any item i have...thanks...Todd
  11. Actually there not costing her anything, i have given her over 22 grand in 3 weeks.. She is paying off her bills and really happy.. now i have alot of swords to get info on and value to sell for her...todd
  12. wow just read it, thats awesome info,, says this was a rare sword,, not sure of the time as i dont know the times they mentioned but deff has some history on it,, what do you think something like this is worth? Todd
  13. So this sword is broken? Looks like it was made this way and the case fits it perfectly...todd
  14. yeah it looks to be in really good shape,, he really took pride in his swords,, whats something like this worth? and the head sword is already posted as well..
