【⚠️ Important: Note on Returns ⚠️】
This item is very large and shipping costs a significant amount (several thousand to over ¥10,000). Therefore, we cannot accept returns for any reason.
To prevent issues, we will thoroughly implement the following:

【Product Contents】
This is a 13-string koto with a luxurious pine and crane maki-e (gold lacquer) design on the dragon's tongue part.
It is a namikou, hirabori (standard soundboard, flat carving) specification, ideal for practice or club activities. We have performed a simple sound check with strings already attached. While we are not experts and cannot provide detailed assessments, there is no major damage overall, and it is in good condition in our subjective opinion.
【Accessories】
Koto bridges: 14 pieces (Fuji-gata brand, resin. Complete set + 1 spare)
Tail cloth: Cloth cover (kikko pattern)
*Playing tsume (finger picks) and kotodai (koto stand) are not included, so please prepare them separately.
【Shipping】
As this is a large item (over 2m when packed), it will be shipped via **Sagawa Express Hikaku Large Size Delivery Service**.
No anonymous shipping: Since it exceeds Mercari's size limit, we will use standard delivery. After purchase, we will ask for your delivery name, address, and phone number via transaction message.
Packaging: To prevent damage, it will be carefully packed with bubble wrap and rolled cardboard.
【Notes】
As we do not have specialized knowledge, please judge the final condition from the photos. Please only consider purchasing if you understand that this is a used musical instrument.
