This is your first post? What's your TubeNet feedback score?

Is this a matter of coincidence or identity theft?

A true statement indeed, but how many people try to sell a very questionable tuba
for their very first ebay transaction? (buying or selling) :shock:

Yeah Wade, I noticed that too! NOT the best way to advertise a new "custom built" tuba :shock:

I see the auction has been ended. Does anyone know David Chase, a tubist in Kansas City? His name was being used on the auction. I doubt if he was involved but wonder if he knows.

I know nothing of this tuba...but David Chase is indeed a real person. I haven't talked with him for a while, but he is a KU grad --Scott Watson student--and knows quality as well as anyone. The eBay listing wasn't crafted very well, certainly...David...more info please? who did the work?

Steve... I doubt if the REAL David Chase made this post... posting.php?mode=quote&f=3&p=482381

However, the screen name 'swank tuba' does fit his professional identity. I seriously doubt if he had anything to do with the Ebay listing or the post here on TubeNet.
