Someone ought to let this proud parent know EXACTLY what he's trying to sell!

The crazy thing is that it might actually sell. Once in a while a clueless seller like this finds a babe in the woods buyer, in this case perhaps another parent who also knows nothing but wants to do something special for the Kid, and after all, it worked out fine for this happy seller. I think that sort of thing happens alarmingly often.

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

I was more-or-less referring to the 'Made in Japan' comment and the fact that a brand new one of these POS horns can be bought for about the same price.

The last remark on that page...

"We have picked up several factories in North China to tie up with technical and financial relationship and to develop the best quality and highest performance instruments."

I wouldn't trust any factories whose technical and financial relationships are "tied up".

Not to worry. That Chinese ship probably runs backwards, has scratchy valves, a poor finish, and no spare parts!
