Other Services

Item Finder

As a service to my customers around the world I locate books and other items of interest here in Japan and on my travels in the Pacific. If there is an item you are looking for but just can't locate drop me an email and let me know. To ensure you get what you ask for please follow the guidelines below.

To Locate Books: Send me a digital picture (or URL) of the cover or spine of the book that way I don't have to worry if my translation of the title is correct. If you have an ISBN for the book please forward that as well.

Other Items: A picture (or URL) of a similar item or a very detailed description so I
know what I'm looking for.

Fees for this service:
For orders £ $100 = FREE
For orders > $100 = $5
For orders ³ $300 = $10
For orders ³ $500 = $15

Proxy Bidding

Sometimes you can't find the item you want within the U.S.. But there it sits plain as day and at a reasonable price on one of the Japanese auction sites. Unfortunately the seller states he won't ship internationally. Again I offer my services as a proxy bidder and shipper.

Right now the only items I cannot offer this service on are blades as there are a lot of regulatory requirements that I still have no knowledge of. But books and sword parts and accessories are no problem.

Fees for this service:
To make things simple for myself and everyone else I charge a flat 10% of the final auction price.

Consignment

MY WEBSITE

If you have something you want to sell let me know. I don't believe I have enough of a web presence to promise that the items will sell but it doesn't hurt to try.

Fees for this service:
Free I'm not paying anything for the webspace why should you?

EBAY

I will only take on these types of consignments for those I already know and have dealt with in the past. The reason's for this are simple. It's my name and reputation that are on the line. For more information on this please contact me directly.

Fees for this service:
All related Ebay fee's + 5% of final auction price.
