johnnyi Posted October 27, 2017 Report Posted October 27, 2017 Hello. Does any one know if edoantiques is out of business? I sent them money a week ago and received no reply (although money was "accepted" and despite daily notes to them) and now I find they have been unlisted from ebay also. Thanks for the help.

ROKUJURO Posted October 27, 2017 Report Posted October 27, 2017 I cannot help, but it may be a consolation for you that I am in the same situation. I sent money and am now waiting for the items to arrive. Communication is not good. Quote
Ken-Hawaii Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 Ah, that might explain why my questions have gone unanswered, too. At least no money involved, in my case. Quote
johnnyi Posted October 28, 2017 Author Report Posted October 28, 2017 Jean, by "communication not good" do you mean non-existent or do you mean sporadic? Sporadic would be good news. Thanks, John Quote
ROKUJURO Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 John,I had a friendly, but not smooth mail exchange with Frederic some weeks ago with an order and a payment from my side. Then i was away for two weeks and, coming back in the first October week, asked for my items. Until now, there is no reply. Quote
Stephen Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 I emailed Frederic as well, most days it takes 3-5 days, im sure its family or travel. Id give him another week ( i know you have) before being too concerned. Quote
ROKUJURO Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 Stephen,thank you, I will try to be patient.I am curious to what will happen when you have sent 12 more posts? Will Brian give you a JUYO KATANA as present? Quote
Stephen Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 Im retiring or real tired of NMB! 11 1 Quote
Jean Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 Jean, Nothing can happen to Stephen, he is already Oyabun 1 Quote
Baka Gaijin Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 Gentlemen., our esteemed Elder statesman will take the title of Ō - Oyabun of course. And a Shodai Tadahiro set of Steak Knives with genuine red plastic handles stamped with Kitty Chan. Not to forget the supreme accolade of unlimited use of the term "Da Boss Man" Which may be freely used on Tea Shirts, Baseball Caps and as a Horimono on any RJT or Mantetsu Blade of his choice. Clear it up any? You Rock Stephen!! PS can you send me the $5 Dollars by airmail? 5 Quote

Frederic went back home to France, a fellow dealer from Osaka said that he promised to be back... someday Quote
ROKUJURO Posted January 25, 2018 Report Posted January 25, 2018 Alex,thank you for that information! I would have appreciated to buy from Frederick.In the end I got my money back a few day ago with the help of PayPal customer protection, so I am not really hurt. Quote
Nikanoru Posted January 25, 2018 Report Posted January 25, 2018 Good to hear that, Jean. Frederic is a really nice guy, modest, no greed, with his own glitches of course but we all have issues. I will look forward to hear from him again on ebay and yahoo.auctions. 1 Quote
Stephen Posted January 25, 2018 Report Posted January 25, 2018 Glad this has come to light, removing his link from my saved. Good that you got it straightened out Jean Quote
ROKUJURO Posted January 25, 2018 Report Posted January 25, 2018 Stephen,yes I am happy, but it would have been nicer to sort that out directly with Frederick. He could just have talked to me saying 'I have a problem'. I would not have killed him for that! Silently diving away with the money is no solution, while sincere communication is a very good way in most cases. 3 Quote
Gordon Sanders Posted January 26, 2018 Report Posted January 26, 2018 I believe that I also bought a couple of things from him with zero problems. He has decent taste! Quote
