Sakai fish farm (SFF) is widely regarded as the greatest Koi farm on the planet. It is not just the sheer volume of Koi produced, but the insane level of quality. The farm has genetic capabilities like very, very few on the planet and the results from their Tosai can be immense. Having plenty of experience raising Tosai from this farm it is examples like this that really excite me. This was stand out piece from day one. I am a massive fan of Tsubo Sumi (Black colour on white skin) and from this farm it lacquers up beautifully with age. Snowy shiroji and a a brilliantly distributed Beni structure give me real excitement moving forward. Lovely structure to the head and that is carried throughout the fish. I always feel like a crook saying this as a lot of dealers say it without any knowledge but this is a big fish type pattern so with that in mind, size will be its friend.

Bidding Help

What is Automatic bidding?

Automatic bidding is the simplest method to participate in an auction-style listing. Just input the maximum amount you're prepared to spend on an item, and we'll handle the rest for you

How to set up automatic bidding

When you’re prepared to place a bid on an auction listing, input the highest amount you’re willing to pay for the item and click on Submit Bid. We will then bid in defined increments for you—enough to maintain your lead, but only up to your specified limit.

If someone outbids you, we’ll notify you, and you can choose whether to raise your maximum bid.

Remember that when determining your maximum bid, you should also consider the cost of shipping if applicable.

Why you've been outbid immediately

If you find yourself outbid right after placing a bid, it's probably because another bidder is utilising automatic bidding and has set a maximum limit that exceeds yours. To become the highest bidder, you'll need to raise your maximum limit.
