Curran Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 If it matters, he is a regular at the DTI and some of the USA shows. We've met and talked a few times, finding we have some martial arts experiences in common. A good friend has a few pieces from him, but his willingness to negotiate seems to depend on how well he knows you. Quote
ChrisW Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 I looked at the rest of the guys site, he's got several NFS pieces. So this is more like his way of displaying his collection than actually selling. Pretty horimono piece on it though. Quote
Kanenaga Posted September 8, 2019 Report Posted September 8, 2019 I've spoken with Goran at several SF shows. He is knowledgeable and usually has nice things on display, but can be a bit coy about whether or not his items are for sale, or just for show. Like the website. I'm familiar with POR = price on request. What is POA? Quote
cuttingedge59 Posted September 8, 2019 Report Posted September 8, 2019 Any experience in Australia or New Zealand ? Best Hi Peter , I have never heard of him and asking around don't know anyone who has brought anything off him. However that doesn't mean anything as the collecting circle here is quite small and some just keep to them selves. Chris NZ 1 Quote
Curran Posted September 8, 2019 Report Posted September 8, 2019 As he states on the website, he lives in Japan. As I said, a friend is a repeat customer of his. As Les said, whether or not it is for sale partially depends on how he regards you. The longer I am in this hobby, the more I understand that last bit and why some senior Japanese collector and one or two of the highest end Japanese dealers feel this way. 3 Quote
