"Used", as in "Used to be..."
When I see this, I think it's time to dig a hole and bury it.

The band room these came from must be inhabited by hoodlums. Check out four or five others from that seller. No way can that "just happen".

You must be a "glass is half full" kind of guy.

I have a French horn like that on my fireplace hearth.
It's in perfect shape except where the bus backed over it...
(came in a matching case, too!)

Well... if it was REALLY a Holton... there might be some salvation. As it is... the Yamaha pistons might be worth something.

I was trying to run this scam where I bought 2 YBB-321's with missing pistons and snagged the pistons out of this item. Got the YBB-321's but got overbid on this train wreck. Couldn't believe anyone wanted this more than me, now I'm fuk't.

If it makes you feel any better I considered doing the same thing. Being the cheap bastard that I am I didn't. Hard to believe it brought $100 in that shape. I guess the valves would be worth that. I wish you luck on finding the needed valves for the other horns.
