The above headline could be true if you do not correct what is in the fear
of the back of half the people's minds. Not everyone saves or trusts
paperworks such as a bill of sale - not in every case...

I agree that any Gray market dealers should be known. Rather All authorised
delease be listed. But I stil strongly feel that voiding warranty for grey
market is not a good idea.

What you should do is to certify select technitians in each country to
examine for signs of tampering: bore and tone holes, etc..

So that EVERY used Buffet can be certified.

NOW THAT YOU HAVE SCARED OFF AMOST EVERYONE FROM PURCHASING A USED BUFFETT
- anywhere.

Now you must be compelled to do something about the fear you have caused or
simply produce more new clarinets.
