Could you guys give us a hand with something?

If you have a butcher's in the Exchange and Mart's Everything Else section, I've got a load of instruments up that I really need to shift, before the 25th of this month.

If anyone knows anyone that you think would be interested in these things, could you give me a shout cos I really need to shift em.

Anything at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much!

For anyone who has children likely to want to learn or who are learning to play the flute the Buffet Crampon is a fantastic instrument.

It was the first flute I owned and took me all the way through to grade 6 (and would probably manage grade 7). It's also at a *really good price for the age and condition. Thumbs Up


And no MementoMori hasn't got me on commission!

How about going to your local school to see if you could bulk sell them, or local community centre, or find a place where a load of band members go jamming...they are likely to be able to help you sell things...

Annabella, thankyou very much! Thumbs Up Very Happy

We've stuck them on ebay and relisted them countless times and we've also put up ads in the local schools and rang up the local music shops and no one seems bothered.

Not sure why, they're really decent instruments.

Getting desperate now!

Thanks for the suggestions though.

In that case put them in the container with your other stuff and take them with you.

Sadly musical instruments don't travel all that well, particularly pianos Sad



Have you got a local Music School? Check with the Local Education Authority who is head of Musical Provision, there is normally a youth orchestra, band and Music School who are always desperate for spare instruments they may be able to give you a (nominal) amount of money, but at least you would know someone would be getting good use from them. Often they will also allow you to put as up at the school for teachers and pupils to see.

I have a Buffet Crampon clarinet, they are quality bits of kit for what they are. This one must be an easy 20 years old too, my brother learnt on it.

Play girlie girl , many many instrument playing men are really nerdy , such that you can use your womanly charms to sell all sorts of junk to them on a promise they'll get something


Of course the promise means absolutely nothing which is why when faced with such propositions say like in a pub with a woman fishing for a drink I'll ask for the promised activity first!.

Due to the lack of men in my Youth Orchestra, the six lads who did play were always in great demand by the ladies of the orchestra, same was true at University....

So lads, if you're desperate, learn to play an instrument, go join and orchestra and enjoy the floods of women/girls hurling themselves at you.
