OK, I've always know that eBayers often end up paying more than they would buying directly from merchants (like Amazon, etc.)

But who would pay more for this

than they could have paid for the one that is for sale at Baltimore Brass???

because they wanted that one. let them do what they want with there money.

there was an interesting thread (that i can't find) where wade explained this in full. if they want to pay to much, who cares?!!

I've had a great experience with eBay. I bought a good New trombone on eBay, used it for a year, put a scratch in it, and managed to sell it for MORE than I paid for it.

Maybe they wanted a hard case.

The seller is a well-known (locally) music store in the Washington DC area (Chuck Levins). I've never been there myself, but they've been around forever and have a good reputation.

Seems like a good enough deal to me! If it was picked up locally, the buyer could have come out on top of the BBC price with tax (or shipping) included.
