eBay
Thursday, November 02, 2006
Have been bidding for some good wooden recorders on eBay & learning my lessons about that. Watching the prices carefully and getting updates often. I also did my research on the brands & am bidding on lesser known but reputable makers. (The internet makes research so much easier.)
But I can see how addictive the process can be & so easy to go over your budgeted amount. I think I will come out to the good - as a new recorder of that quality would be $70 - but - also watch shipping, etc. (I stumbled onto an Australian site & saw the shipping in Aussie dollars - the U.S. shopping was twice as much...) Also beware getting international goods - I feel better about things in the U.S.
It may hot be so good for other things - but if you know what you are looking for it seems good for hard-to-find items like used intsruments. (And there's a good guide on eBay for those buying used musical instruments.) My advise is DO YOUR RESEARCH.
