$1K is just the starting bid anyway; I'm sure it'll go way up.

It's hard to see from the photos whether there is 3rd oct. key or not.
Caveat emptor times ten.

HMM, H10 on a Loree is WAY more than 17 years old. Nora Post dated my
old Z33 Loree English horn at 1903... II10 makes more sense.
And I don't see a 3rd octave key, either....
caveat emptor!
