Last night I was looking at eBay, & I came across something that sent my BS detection meter well over the redline…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A seller from China, with a previous feedback rating of 0, is selling a Selmer, low A Mark VI alto saxophone, with no reserve.<\/a> There is no description of the horn, no mention of it being a low A alto, no serial number, and only 1 photo, that, looks suspiciously like it might have come from a dealer’s site somewhere.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There is currently 1 bid on the horn of $1950.00, from a buyer who also has 0 feedback.\u00a0Ya… Right….<\/p>\n

BTW, if anyone bites on this, I’ve got some great swampland in Florida I’d like to show you… \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Well if nothing else, it’s a great photo of a Selmer, Mark VI Low A alto saxophone. I wonder who took it?<\/p>\n
