Yes, i watched it. Peaple with more money then common sence. One simple stamp and booooom and the price goes through the roof.

 

I will also mention the crazy prices of Generals grade shingunto tassels too,

Makes me love my $100.00 Mantetsu more and more every time i see one of these auctions... although i dont want to sell it anyway.

How long will the fade last ?

 

It just like the hype around the type95 ncos sword back in the early 2000.

 

Heaps of peaple paided high prices and now theres more on the market then peaple buying them

The bubble will certainly burst, but if you're looking for cash and have one of these laying around, now is the time to sell.

These are quite rare and there are many collectors that want them so I dont think the price will come down.

Did I hear correctly that the sword laws in Japan are changing regarding Showato being issued Juho-token-rui-torokusho?

True Bill,

but still very high. Yasukuni/okimasa high prices.

 

but I like this quote "VALUE AND QUALITY arn't directly related to each other in the market place", and when does a certin rareity become more valued then others?

 

and if we count up over the net, I remember seeing 3-4 for sale in the last year,

 

Also this seller must have aleast half the worlds yasukuni swords because I would say he sells atleast 6-8 per year.

 

But at the end of the day, I didn't buy it, I would pay that much and I cant afford it so the topic has ran its course.
