Well, if it was an A6M2, I'd be all over it. But...

Sorry to see it leaving its present owner and caretaker. I've got a picture of myself sitting in it in Chino buried on a hard drive somewhere.

I thought this one was in Japan being operated?

"PRICE: CALL FOR PRICE"

When a listing like this shows no price, does it usually mean that they are open to offers?

Out of my league, certainly, but I'm curious as to why they wouldn't just state a price.

Hopefully Jerry Yagen acquires her. He needs some more Japanese aircraft in his collection and seems to be missing a Zero.

It recently flew in Japan. I believe it is now back in Chino. It was reassembled a couple of months ago.

Yeah, it has been back and forth between Japan and California a few times now. It flew in Japan back in early 2016, before being brought back to the US, and then was sent back to Japan and flown there last summer, for a while, before it was sent back to the US again. It was back at Chino again, reassembled and on display, at the Planes of Fame Airshow this past May.
