Smells a little fishy...brand new eBayer with no feedback...generic picture plus another one where you can't see much of the horn (and a very strange picture to use).

Plus, I'm always amused when an auction says "a reasonable price." How do they know? Isn't it an auction where the final price is unknown until the end?

I'd run away...far away...unless you can contact the seller and get some more info that makes you feel better about the sincerity of this one.

I was just assuming it was the same guy trying to sell one on here and bassclefbrass.com.He had a plausible story about a quintet position that didn't work out.Maybe.Maybe not.

Thanks for the update, Liza, and welcome to TubeNet!

You might consider putting more information up on your eBay listing...there are so many scams these days, you have to work pretty hard to assure a potential buyer that you're not one.

Good luck on your sale, and in your future academic endeavors!
