What it is
{"overview":"The Sakura Seiki Petal (8 corners) is a Japanese subminiature camera, an octagonal-bodied design from a small post-war Japanese maker. Today values for an authentic eight-cornered Petal sit broadly around that figure, but condition, completeness of the original case, and provenance can move what one is worth significantly in either direction.","buying_guide":"The Petal exists in round and octagonal (8-corner) variants, and confirming the body shape is the first authentication step.

Questions
Why is the price so variable?
Sales are infrequent and the octagonal variant is rarer than the round version, so each appearance can set its own price depending on bidder interest, originality, and whether the case is included.
