Here's a summary of what happened...all in about two days...even those of us that do drop in on the board on a daily basis might have missed it...

The tuba showed up for sale.
This thread got started the same day (I beleive)
He decided he wanted to buy a tuba
He decided he wanted to by that tuba and no amount of advice was going to talk him out of it
He bought it the next day
He hasn't spent much time on the board lately...

I might (very mildly) object to this representation. I really don't recall too many trying to talk him out of it, and - at that price - anyone advising anyone else not to move on this tuba would not have been offering the best advice.

Agreed...

I suppose it was more a case of this buyer rejecting advice to explore his options and do some homework which resulted in him buying the first thing that came along, which (IMHO) just happened to be that Conn @ ~$3500. Although everyone likes a good deal, I believe it was quite coincidental in this case...he had his mind made up and he was going to buy it come hell or high water.
