We were able to find about half a container load in two day s search. Things are picking up economically, although slowly. Japan was a pleasant surprise. We were not expecting to find much, and ended up with a container load of purchases. Prices of tansu were below what we were paying when we lived there in the early 1990s.
Auctions are well stocked, and Japanese dealers are selling things at reasonable prices.
In sum, the trip was successful with nearly three containers to be shipped. We expect the Korean items to arrive in May. Chinese and Japanese containers should arrive in June and July, respectively. Please visit and see the fruits of our latest buying trip. Thank you for the many inquiries. If you have specific questions, contact us , and we will answer as soon as possible.
