slodo - they get high prices, yes. They're pretty rare, and most people, once they have one, dont want to let go of them. I know it would take me a lot to part with mine. there's a high demand. If you like 3renshos, check out Makino. Makino was Konno's assistant, and made his later frames (including mine), and now makes frames in his own name. They're very nice. Yamaguchi was also one of his assistants. you're probably seeing a disproportionate amount on this forum because we're a bunch of geeks who waste all our money on bikes.
