I think have seen this before.....Seems like the guy can't tell where the item is, but who am I to say that?

Appears to be a nice horn, though. I've played a few and enjoyed every one of them.
Thoughts? Comments?

The opening text is is picture, the price is crazy low, the shipping is even lower. Willing to bet he wants you to wire the money as well. I smell fish.

How about the bs about contacting him before you bid or he'll cancel the bid?

I have just emailed the bidder to ask if I can inspect the tuba before bidding as I live in the UK. I will be interested in the response!

I read somewhere once that when The bid has one of those pictures that says Email me before bidding, and listing the buy it now price is a good indicator of fraud.
Ebay forbids people from posting a buy it now price in the bid, thats why this seller has that information in a picture not in html:
