“ Comments for your store: I think your store is really unique in its way. The items it has, can only be found in this shop and are characterized by a finesse in choice rarely met in today's bulk buying e-shops. Combining this with a very helpful service, it makes it one of the best in the internet. Please bring more items!!! Thank you... ”

“ Comment: I think you need better close up pictures of each of your fittings. And for your saya, you need a full length shot, a close up of the surface and possible the koiguchi. It is also not clear what is meant by silver fittings upgrade. I guess the basic is silver plated copper. Or is it silver plated brass? And the upgraded version is solid silver? Is that real silver or some alloy. If you could be more clear about that, that would be great. Are your tsuba iron or alloy? That's not clear ”
