I'm thinking this is a hacked ebay account.
100% feedback selling homemade jewelry/parts to poorly listed tubas looks fishy.

They could've at least tried something connected, like jewely FOR tubas... :P
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

There's also a couple of bassoons... maybe they just inherited them or found an attic full of mint instruments. :shock:

I looked up all the items this seller had before this. The most expensive one was $5.50 which leads me to believe that something is very wrong. The pictures and description do not match, even for someone with little knowledge of English or musical instruments. The backgrounds are are very different with different camera setups. I choose to report the listing to E-Bay. They can look into it more to see if it is legitimate or not.
