I think we will ask for our money back as we think his advertising is false and misleads people.
You'll have problems with that. It's not as if there is a regulatory commission for Samurai Sword Techniques.
I think he should be reported to Fair Trading or investigated on e budo maybe?
He has already been discussed on e-budo. I told a certain poster there that it was easy to see that it was crap just from their advert. She insisted on buying it anyway, and then wrote a short review saying it was crap. I told her that
before
she spent her money on it, but some people insist on learning the hard way. It's pretty obvious to someone with any real training that he is fairly clueless and is just interested in being a big man while making some money. However, those with any real training wouldn't be interested in purchasing this DVD set to begin with. Further, if someone is
that
interested in learning Japanese swordsmanship from a DVD set, a crappy set will serve them just as well as a great one. You cannot learn any of the Japanese sword arts from videos, whether it be kendo, iaido, or kenjutsu. It takes a qualified instructor to correct and train you in the nuances of the art. If you try and learn from a DVD set, you'll be crappy anyway, so what difference does it make if the DVD set itself is crappy or not?
Just my opinions based on my experiences. Others may vary.
