We just received another email about an apparent attempted scam:

Dear Bassoon.org,
 
    My case was similar to the one you have posted on your site. The "buyer" sent me a cashiers check for more than the cost of the bassoon, asking that I send the difference via Western Union to the "shippers". Once I had the check and deposited he became very demanding and all of a sudden it was urgent that I act on getting the money to the "shipper" immediately. First the "shipper" was in LA then he called me very early one morning to say that the shipper was out of town and could not pick up the money and could I change the name and location to someone in the Netherlands where the instrument was to be shipped as well. Western Union has an incredible fraud department and they caught this as I was standing at the counter. Watch out for any money that needs to be sent to the Netherlands or Nigeria was their advise, it is almost always fraud and never recommended. Since they caught it in time I was able to get all of my money back and called my bank to discover that the check had come up bad and been taken out of my account that morning.
   Hopefully this will help others watch out for the same thing.

 

Also this email:

 

"I have may instrument listed on the site and wanted to make you aware of a scam. I was contacted by a <email address> to purchase my listed instrument.  He advised that he would send me a check for the instrument and provided shipping instructions. This sounded simple enough.

 

However, he emailed me and said that the check was for $2500 more than the agreed to price and he asked if I would wire him the difference! I received his check that was postmarked from England; drawn on a NY state bank with a Florida address. Dubious at best! Needless to say the check did not clear.

 

Fortunately, I did not send him the instrument (it was to be shipped to <USA city>) or any money. I just wanted to make you and others aware of this scam."

 

We continue to receive occasional notices from folks who feel that they have been contacted by someone not completely honest.  Buyer/seller beware! 

 

Some recent e-mails have recommended Paypal; Bassoon.org has no connection with Paypal.

Title: Popkin Bassoon/Contrabassoon Cane Profiler, Reiger Tip Profiler for sale.
 
I have a Popkin bassoon/contrabassoon cane profiler that has treated me well. The profiler may be in need of a slight adjustment, though it is working just fine for myself. New Popkin profilers are selling for $1250, asking price is $950. 
I have a Reiger tip profiler available, which is need of adjustment (The mandrel and plaque aren't lining up at the moment, it isn't a fine-tuning adjustment that is needed.) Though the value of these are currently at $1,800, my asking price is negotiable since the purchaser may have to have the profiler adjusted by Reiger.

Schreiber #21XX for sale

 

This instrument was purchased 2 years ago, and has been maintained by Marcus/Weiler.

This is a very rare schreiber, it is one of the earliest (before Schreiber co. started recording

their bassoons). I estimate its age at 53-55 years old.

I also believe it was their top of the line model; I've never seen an older (or any schreiber in

the past couple generations) with as nice a body.

The keywork is the expected simple keywork- the norm before a decade or two ago.

The body is in fantastic condition. I thought when I was buying it

that it was 15 years old, not knowing the serial number. The keywork still shines almost

like new, and everything (pads, keywork, etc) is in proper working order.

I believe this one was made in one of Schriber's better production runs.

It has a focused, rich sound.

Would make a superior student instrument or a fine college one.

 

For any more info, and for pics, please contact me at:

kevinman4404@hotmail.com

or (519)9416587.

I live in Ontario if you would like to try it without a deposit. If you want

to try it from farther away you may either deposit or use escrow, though

you would have to pay the fees.

 

Price is $2500 solid. Shipping extra, as well as paypal fees if we use it.

Thank you

   I have three Heckel bocals for sale.  The first is a CV 2 in great condition.  I also have a CC XL 1 for sale and a CC XL 2.  The CC XL bocals are essentially brand new and have never been consistently played on.  They came with my instrument from the Heckel factory, but they unfortunately did not fit well with my instrument.  I have heard they are quite popular however.  Because new Heckel bocals are being sold now for over $800, I'm asking $700 each for the XL bocals and $600 for the CV.  If you are interested in trying them email me at nickakdag@hotmail.com .  Thanks.
