Then you haven't seen many "band parents" in a while. Most have no clue that
musical instruments are sold discounted, in many cases simply by asking. _I_
had no idea a few years back. I was surprised when my son's former clarinet
teacher bought a Selmer 10G for us for $1200 a few years back - I had looked
at list prices and thought I'd owe him over 3 grand.
