barnejp Posted July 17, 2019 Report Posted July 17, 2019 Hi All, What is the most vibrant market (items) currently most sought after, In Your Opinion? Cheers, Greg Quote
Vermithrax16 Posted July 17, 2019 Report Posted July 17, 2019 What price range? What era? What style? Besides that, I watch auctions, etc all the time, my general observations.......... From NMB seems military swords are all the rage and pursuit. This is newish as perhaps people see a possible arbitrage gap in knowledge. From online sales: Fittings: Goto, and then general stuff that's hard to characterize other than has gold accents and is not pricey or old looking iron Swords: Soshu and Bizen; anything Muromachi so one can say Koto era, any sword in most any condition that has koshirae even though that's not the proper way to store it Just my 2 cents, not worth a bus ride.

Ken-Hawaii Posted July 17, 2019 Report Posted July 17, 2019 Greg, are you saying "market" with respect to buying & reselling? Or just what people are buying the most of? Quote
barnejp Posted July 17, 2019 Author Report Posted July 17, 2019 This is follow up on "Prices of NCO swords nowadays" Good discussion, BTW. I feel fittings (parts market) is perhaps THE CURRENT MARKET. Agree? Cheers, Greg Quote
barnejp Posted July 17, 2019 Author Report Posted July 17, 2019 In regards to "market"...buyers. Quote
barnejp Posted July 17, 2019 Author Report Posted July 17, 2019 From NMB seems military swords are all the rage and pursuit. This is newish as perhaps people see a possible arbitrage gap in knowledge. Again please refer to "Prices of NCO swords nowadays" Quote
Vermithrax16 Posted July 17, 2019 Report Posted July 17, 2019 In particular, page 2. Couldn't get past the dumbness of it, can you summarize? 2 Quote
barnejp Posted July 17, 2019 Author Report Posted July 17, 2019 Sure. Any military sword you may have (with very few exceptions) sell them now! 1 Quote
Vermithrax16 Posted July 17, 2019 Report Posted July 17, 2019 Sure. Any military sword you may have (with very few exceptions) sell them now! Just to make clear, I saw political crap on page 2 and I come HERE to get away from all that stuff. Nihonto is my escape. Your summary seems correct, but I don't really follow/know about that area is all about. 1 Quote
PNSSHOGUN Posted July 17, 2019 Report Posted July 17, 2019 Prices are low for military swords, beyond the rare and high quality ones.... Quote
