that's like buying your copy? of Rolex in a watch-jeweller's shop in Europe but pay for a genuine one
( not on the street in Thailand ...)

All I can say is that when I first came across this dealer (I was searching for a specific type of sword on google), I was initially delighted to find them - like I usually am when I can window shop - but then I put them on my blacklist the same day after browsing their stock. Almost all the items I looked at a little more closely seemed off. I don't think this is an innocent mistake.
