Yes Florian, this and the „not selling“ years.. Hi Grev, Im glad finding it. There are not so many items on the market. Some people gave me advice to buy the AOI kodai yagyu with motiv moon and water ( suigetsu ), was sold in the AOI auction. The last auction price I noticed was 165000 yen. Think it was sold for about 180000-200000 yen. Best
