Jappannippon is a reliable vendor in terms of accurate descriptions and photos of his stock. His prices always have and will continue to push the very high end of the market. His resources for stock seem endless. At times you will find a reasonable price with a buy it now for a nice razor. This does not happen often. I have purchased several of his razors and been satisfied with the product but no so happy with the price. He is a seller operating in a sellers market and as long as his prices work for him I see no reason why anything should or would change.
