Sold AS IS - NO RETURNS
I'm just a retired band director working out of his house.  With the cost eBay and PayPal charge I just can't accept a return when I play test each instrument personally
and know it plays the way it should and looks great.  Your satisfaction is important to me.  If I do happen to miss something I will make it right.
This cornet is guaranteed to be as described.
I take great care to make sure you are receiving a good quality instrument and to describe it accurately.
If something's not right, I'll make it right.
The pictures tell the story.
I personally play everything I sell, so there’s nothing to worry about
.
I’m a band director and professional musician playing tuba to trumpet and everything in between.
If I wouldn’t have it in my house, I won’t send it to yours!
I’ve just collected too many instruments and other "horn stuff", between the community band that I direct (plus 3 others I play in – yes, I’m a little crazy!) and 2 kids that played in band in school.
It’s time to “thin the herd”, so I’ll be listing some more instruments and “horn stuff” soon.
UPDATE:
Thanks to all who have bought “stuff from my closet”
.
This has gone so well, that I’ve opened an Ebay store and will be looking for nice items (mostly band instruments and “horn stuff”) to offer for sale on Ebay as well as selling for band members and friends.
If there is something you’d like, just email me with your request and I’ll try to find it for you.
Please note:
This item is also for sale locally.
I will have to end the auction early if it sells locally.
UPDATED UPDATE:
MANY THANKS TO ALL MY PAST CUSTOMERS!
I'm now starting my 13th year on eBay with sales to 29 countries and all 50 states, and great positive feedback!  Thanks to all of you, I've achieved some of eBay's top ratings, plus a lot of great horns have been rescued and are now enjoying a new life all around the world.
THANKS AND ENJOY YOUR "NEW" REFURBISHED MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS!
