Customer Reviews
The yunzi stones are a true joy to play with, I love that it's single convex so when I'm working out variations of a problem I can reverse which stone side I'm playing and early discern the new stones vs old. The Bamboo board at first had me a little nervous but I've had zero warp to deal with so really glad I chose these together. My only complaint is the lids of the bowls are flat which means I have to use extra bowls for captured stones.
This Go set is high quality and will last a long time. It shipped very fast as well.
Excellent experience. Everything first class. Blazing fast shipping.
I bought this as a graduation present for myself, and it did not disappoint. The board and stones are high quality, and everything arrived on-time and intact (despite two black stones breaking on-route, but there are plenty of extras anyway). I would buy from Yellow Mountain imports again for sure!
Beautiful go set and timely arrival
