LSando.com has a new collection of Kiseru Pipes
Living Shop Ando [LSando.com] is to my knowledge the only authentic (geographically and culturally) Japanese pipe shop which offers international currency and shipping for its excellent selection of traditional Kiseru pipes, carrying cases and the exclusively Japanese Koiki tobacco used for Kiseru. I have personally purchased from them and consider them top-notch. (You can find pics and descriptions of my purchases HERE.)
ANYWAY... LSando has just come out with its new collection of Kiseru pipes and cases if any of you are interested.
LSando is located in Tokyo Japan and thus declares it prices in YEN. However, there is a currency conversion calculator at the bottom of the page which will tel you up front what price you can expect to pay in Yen.
If in fact you choose to purchase from Ando-san, please mention that you learned of his shop via SaruDama. I think he may appreciate that.
I was just wondering how you sent the payment to Ando-san. I got the confirmation email but when i click the link it sends me to a website in japanese and i dont know how to read it. I'm not sure what to do, could you please help me i'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
