Newish to the forums and posting to sell some of my collection. I want to limit my collection to the swords I practice JSA with and a few of my antiques
Preferred payments are Venmo and PayPal F+F to avoid excessive fees and taxes. I am open to discussing other payment options. Shipping is in CONUS.
All prices are discounted to move these swords. I am willing to entertain some offers. No trades, as I’m trying to make my collection smaller.
I want to find new homes for several swords. These are my models I’d like to clear out.
There are links provided to several images proving these are the swords I own.
