Hi, here is a response from a jap breeeder for my queries on the ranchus last year..

The jap way of grading, if you can understand the english. I spent quite some time to clarify thru my interpreter..

hope this will help people here to appriecate jap ranchus..

====================================

I provide only a show Ranchu and a seed Ranchu.
The Ranchu of the low grade doesn't exist.
But, I will provide the show Ranchu which is good only for the member.

When I want to buy the show Ranchu whose you are good.
Can you tell me an address and a telephone number in advance?
When it listens to your address and the telephone number, I can do the
guidance which is good for you.
As for the good show Ranchu, advance payment cash will be necessary.

Thank you,
