Tonio, they do not look like Sakai fish to me;-))

Joel, will you give a Sakai auction gonsake award if we got it right?
# 107 will work for me... BTW, it was fun to chat with you on the phone today....

Does one's impression of quality change according to awareness of the dealer?

It is based on the breeder.

Mike poses the exact question that I was looking for. Would the perception chance if the breeder was other that Sakai, Koda or Ogata?

So far no one has guessed it, and I'm pretty sure there will be some surprise when the correct breeder is revealed.

One observation so far that is absolutely correct:
