Hi,
Here is what I do when I see obvious fake auctions. This one is a
fake because the bidder IDs are kept private and the seller
doesn't accept Paypal. These things almost always add up to a
scam. So what I do is I email the person and ask if this oboe has
the low A key. Guess what, they always have the low A key. I
personally have never seen a low A key. ;-)

HI
I just saw this oboe and I'm sure i have seen it before but then
that doesnt
mean anything. However I read what the seller wrote and how much
heshe is
selling it for and I got suspicious. Anyways I could be just
getting old and
weary but I thought why not check it out you never know.
Here it is the link
