Small victory, katsuragi is not presently selling chaire ... in fact several ebay sites that had been are not.
Good to hear, but still lots to be had on eBay!

Since I have already requested that we get back on topic ... and allowing these posts to stand would require a rather pointed reply from me and again way off topic, I have decided to trim this topic in 24 hours.
