Well, Joe... a quick search for "professional tuba" turned up several items presented by three sellers.... NONE of which are professional-quality horns.
"Professional" is just an over-used and wrongly-used term that no one should pay much attention to.

Re: heads-up ye gullible
Oh... I didn't see THOSE listings. All I searched for was "professional tubas". None of the listings were REAL professional tubas.bloke wrote:I referred to the (non-existent) instruments as "pro". The scammer did not. Unless they've been removed by eBay (which, hopefully they have), there was a FAKE Kalison DS, some FAKE "York" (made in Germany) compensating Eb tubas, and other things......

Somehow they seem quite adept at finding the passwords to legitimate accounts, with lots of well-earned good feedback.bloke wrote:these @$$holes will grab new id's and throw their cr@p up there all over again.
I don't get it. Obviously, when you see "Contact me at this email address before bidding" you know it's a scam, and the iPolice are going to be staking out the account, so they can never ACTUALLY check it. What's the point?

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