sencho Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 Hello all... I am selling some books and publications listed below. I will keep them here for a week or so as one lot, and see if anyone pulls the trigger, after which I may give them a go on ebay. If they don't go as one lot, then I will start flogging them individually.... But not now. The asking price for the individual publications below adds up to just under $5,000, but if someone wants to buy the whole lot, I will drop the price by about $1,500 to $3,500. I will carefully consider serious offers too... PM only please... All books are located in, and will ship from, Florida, USA. Cheers!

sencho Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Posted January 5, 2016 Hello all... Happy New Year. Getting on for a year an a half since I posted this sale and have now had a minute to look at this again! I have not sold any of these books.... been far too busy with business... Will sell individually. Am now back in Florida for a week and have left all of these with my assistant at my S. Florida office while I head off travelling again. Please email Claire if you want to buy anything. (They are gumming up her office so she wants them gone!) ***additional there is a pile of To-Ron Northern California Newsletters that will be included with the Florida Token Kai lot. Anything left at the end of January will go on ebay. Cheers Quote
sencho Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Posted January 5, 2016 by the way if someone offers Claire around $2,500 (half price), she'll probably sell the whole bloody lot! 2 Quote
Greg F Posted January 6, 2016 Report Posted January 6, 2016 Hi Sencho. I have some financial commitments to get out of the way but if still available in about 4 or 5 weeks I would like to purchase atleast a couple of your books. All the best. Greg Quote
Shamsy Posted January 6, 2016 Report Posted January 6, 2016 Hi Sencho, I'm interested in the following books: The New Generation of Japanese Swordsmiths - Tsuchiko - $40 (slight cover/spine damage, no dust jacket) The Yasakuni Swords - Kishida - $45 Gendai Toko Meikan - Ono - $100 Samurai, The Weapons and Spirit of the Japanese Warrior - Sinclair - $30 The link to Claire brings up a blank tab for me?

Brian Posted January 6, 2016 Report Posted January 6, 2016 The link to Claire brings up a blank tab for me? Just hover over the link and you can easily see at the bottom of your browser, the email address and email subject it would open in your email client. Quote
Shamsy Posted January 6, 2016 Report Posted January 6, 2016 Just a matter of using the wrong electronics. I tried on PC (it coughed and wheezed but worked). Cheers Brian Quote
sencho Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Posted January 8, 2016 I just heard from Claire that she has reached an agreed price with one person for all the books. Therefore the sale is currently on hold while this goes through. Thanks for the other emails and apologies if you have not been replied to yet. If for some reason the sale is not completed, Claire will be in touch. Regards Nigel. Quote
Stephen Posted January 8, 2016 Report Posted January 8, 2016 Please pass along the offer to new buyer, Quote
Shamsy Posted January 9, 2016 Report Posted January 9, 2016 That's a shame, those gendi books would have been a perfect start, but a perfectly understandable position. Please keep me in mind if the deal doesn't go through. Quote
