Lol. :D
I think Jim is on Tokyo time so I'd imagine he wont see your message (above) until tonight/tomorrow.

Another problem you may have is that the winner may live in Japan, so even if you do have the address, it is still a crapshoot as to finding the place. From what I can figure, the numbers of the adresses don't go sequentially down the street, like in the good ol USofA. Nope, they do it differently there.
See here.
I was trying to find an address one time in Japan, and I just simply couldn't.
It may be part of their homeland defense system or something.:confused:
I don't think Jim was the one that won that auction. He did said a few posts back that the he won't be bidding on this item. Anyway I have tried for 8 hours to register with yahoo japan auction site to bid on it and I was unable to do it. I only found this thread when the auction had 8 more hours to go. I saw all this strange letters and understood nothing from the japan yahoo website. I did use google translate but didn't helped to much. I believe that this auction was restricted to Japan residents only. I am not sure. :aargh: I was willing to pay even more then the this auction ended for so if anyone here will manage to locate in the future another auction or another store that sells this razor please PM me. I will make it worth the effort.
For yahoo japan auctions, you basically have to find a company to bid on it for you. They are pretty limited as far as where they will ship, and also payment methods allowed.
Here is a link that lists a few companies that you can bid thru
Bidding in Yahoo! Japan Auctions from Outside of Japan :.: Vertebrate Silence
Who knows... maybe the higher bidder will fail to pay and the razor will get relisted or something ... Like I said if anyone ever manage to track another razor like this on sale anywhere please PM me. I have a lot of razors and I am willing to give a gorgeous one away to the person that will find this one for me. I will let you choose one from my collection yourself.
BTW if anyone here speaks japanese or has a friend that speaks japanese please pm. I need someone to ask the seller of this razor a question and I don't know how to do it. Can any one here help me with this?
Gentlemen,
Just one look at those razors hails their beauty and quality. Lucky finds, indeed.
