$550 for a four-valve tuba seems like a good deal. Condition on a horn that old might be "iffy."

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.

Re: What do you make of this?
I don't deal on Craig's List. If this popped up on Ebay for $550... I'd probably be 'on it'. .... even if it needs a valve job!

Re: What do you make of this?
I'm reading the description and I don't see that. His language about the trade is ambiguous, but I interpret it as he will trade this tuba and some money, for a better instrument; [otherwise] he wants $550 for the tuba.KiltieTuba wrote:If you read the description, you'd see the seller is looking to trade plus $550, not sell it for $550 outright.
If you're local and it looks like something with potential (have no idea), get on over there and play it - bring a tuner and try to verify that it's built to 440 A.
