I finally found a price list and some specs. of sorts.

A1-3P ￥5.400 830ｍｍ 8.6ｍｍ 7.6ｍｍ 16ｇ
B1-2P ￥5.400 830ｍｍ 8.6ｍｍ 6.8ｍｍ 8ｇ
B1-3P ￥5.400 830ｍｍ 8.8ｍｍ 7.6ｍｍ 13ｇ
IF ￥1.600 110ｍｍ 7.6ｍｍ 3ｇ

That means at current rates the retail price in Japan for one of these mythical sticks is £28 with a ferrule chiming in at £8. Shall we call it £230 to frame a kite ? (which oddly isn't enough to cover the difference between the SkyShark and 'Stuffy versions from Carl - and these are retail prices).
Interesting to note that Didier Bilboquet described Aero Stuff as "an urban legend" and "well made G-Force SUL". Then again he also offered a Masque Millenium for a grand so perhaps is being flippant.
Anyone for a reframe ?
Mike.
