Bad experince with Aoiart Japan.

should be locked

Please note the time limit for keeping the blade on hold at Aoi-Art, as specified on their website:

 

"Please contact us by order form if you find an item that you would like to order from our website.We will hold item only a week until we confirm your payment."

 

This means the buyer should proceed with the bank transfer almost immediately after asking to put the blade on hold, since money transfer takes several days.

 

I have purchased 5 blades and one tsuba from Tsuruta-san. All very smooth and pleasant transactions.
