Subj: Re: Selling my clarinet...need suggestions
Date: Mon, 17 Feb 1997 00:21:49 -0500

Good point!!! My only "bitty" argument would be that my clarinet has
never been cracked, so is worth the extra $100.

Everyone, I'm continuing to respond because I would like everyone out
there to know what they should do when it comes time to sell a clarinet
that difficult to sell. I'm most likely going to lower the price...

Thanks everyone...again! :-)
