Photos by a stranger. From a listing on Craigslist for a Sayonara Sale in Shimokitazawa. Almost all foriegners in Tokyo are transients which means that when it comes time leave (visa expired, contract expired, deportation) they resell the contents of their house as a ‘Sayonara Sale’. I don’t really know why, but i check the Sayonara Sales almost everyday, compulsively. Sometimes you see the same television or bicycle reappear two or three times. Once someone was giving away a Sugar Glider – those little possums with the wings. We tried to take it, and had even named it and found a cage, but it was given away a couple of hours before we were supposed to pick it up.
