I think none of us want to see all our koi dealers disappear from the scene and all that is left would be us chatting on the web with a few people going to Japan and buy directly occasionally. I think the air-freight cost of the koi would exceed $50 and the mudpond cost of the koi for a month is about that too. If you are keen on the kois, do call Jacky with your offer, albeit your extremely lean offer - it is still an offer. Otherwise, perhaps, please refrain from making offers over the public forum as Jacky did not post his listing under the buy-sell section. Perhaps, you would just like to comment on the fishes.... and that's OK too but once you offer that level of pricing, you are almost de-valuing the fishes. Granted that it is hard to put an absolute value on a fish... or a pet, but when the cost is below the temporary upkeep of the koi or the air-transport, it is almost saying that these fishes are not worth the effort for freight out of Japan... and it is by itself, a clear and loud comment on the quality accorded to these fishes. So, I wouldn't reject your offer as I am not Jacky... but if I were him, I would be telling you to stare hard at your email address!!!. Aptly so.
