Well, that all depends. I mean, come on - you gotta tell us more. Is
this a unused Selmer Paris 37, or a 80 year old Conn to low E, or a
plastic inflatable one?

Hell, 200 bucks is a good deal for a car as long as it's not a Gremlin or
a Pinto - but if we don't know if it's a Gremlin or a Pinto, there's no
way to tell if you're getting ripped off or not.
