and we thought that a site was good to sell all in the world.

>Q3//
>is there any MERITS of "selling products online" like this?
>On the other hands, how about its DEMERITS?

Answer: It is difficult to sell on internet.
It is necessary to have money and the time to animate, change often the site.
The big brands(with the bags) have a site just for advertising, after they have the shops,
the advertising in the magazines.
It is difficult to exist next to to the big brands.

It is not like industry.
We are a good team, and every people like this work.
The conditions of work are not hard: a little team,
make something of concret, friendly relationship.

>Q6//
>what is "selling points" of your bags?

Answer: The "selling points" :
creative bags, limitted series, to dare be different of the other people and not a fasion victim.
Now, all in the world the womens semmes with the same taste and it is good to be unic.

>Q7//
>What is the reason that you make
>"4-limited model"?
>and, hereafter, is there a possibility of adding
>new model?

Answer: It is an economic reason. also for the copie.
We work with around 50 shops in the world
and they can have all the models.
The site is not concurrency.

>Q8//
>what are you feel "pleasure" as an artisan?

Answer: We are happy to make creative bas and a work of high quality.

speciality... ...in this economic system.

>Q9//

Now it is the spring and out the windows,
I see many cherry in flowers, it is very beautiful,
the Sun is shinnng.
If you come in France, you are welcome.

>Q10//
>i guess you've met many people via this site since you were established.
>Are there impressive ones of them?
>For example, a person whom you can meet only on the web,
>because of living so far-away country, and so on?

Answer: Now, until 2 months the site is good to exchange ideas.
some designers of leather bags tell they like;
some young people ask to learn the work,
some old friends give a sign of friendship.
it is funny to see the different interests and to have a connection with the world , with you.

>Q11//
>Many japanese people, whom you never met, maybe,
