A little research can go a long way.
Adverts like this wind me up really badly! I should really take up golf or something. The advert is typical of many, I know that, and I really should not let it get to me. I need to vent :tickedoff: Perhaps also add a little information to boot.
The advert briefly turned me into that guy that sends a 'know it all' type message to the seller; the shame, although I was polite :knuppel2:. As I said before, I should really take up golf.

The seller responded, very cordially I might add, saying they that he was a record dealer but came across these. The evidence he gave for them being nos, and not repop was this picture of the paper they are mounted on :idiot2::

...despite the obvious problem, I thought so at least, that the paper is made in the USA it is another detail that really gets my hackles up. This is something you see a lot on 'og Kuwahara decals', the placement of the trademark symbol. This was only used from early 1983 I think. There is no way Kuwahara could trademark the Japanese flag, just saying! The trademark should be after the word Kuwahara as that is the trademark.
Rant over.
