WHAT DO THE GREAT CLARINETISTS OF GERMANY, FRANCE, JAPAN, CANADA,
ENGLAND, BRAZIL, AND MEXICO DO FOR "SUPERB QUALITY, ADJUSTMENTS AND
PLAYABILITY"? I DON'T THINK THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO THE LIBERTYVILLE
EXPERTS. ARE THEY MERELY STUCK WITH THE "FINISHED" PRODUCT OF THE GREAT
BUFFET FACTORY???

Alvin come on,once again we are going to a direction we don't need to go
to. I guess i haven't been clear again and I am not a major in English
so sorry. What I am saying is that the Gray market instruments could of
been worked on or reamed by people who don't know what they are doing.
Of course it doesn't include you don't worry. I had people calling me
with serial number of instruments they just purchase and payed the new
price for instruments where 4 years old do you think it is normal? And
the people in England,Brazil,germany ,France ,japan,or anywhere buy
their instruments from Buffet dealers. My point was Instruments bought
in the Gray market are not warranty by us because we don't know what
happened to the instruments before it was sold.

OH REALLY!!! HOW DID RALP MCLANE, ROBERT MARCELLUS AND HAROLD WRIGHT
MAKE IT THROUGH THEIR 50 YEAR PLAYING CAREERS WITHOUT THE BUFFET
TECHNICIANS
WITH BUFFET REAMERS FROM LIBERTYVILLE?

Because that was great technicians to take care of them. Do you want me
to tell every one how great you are? then I say it you are great. I was
not trying to attack anyone ,I just try to protect our valued musician
and retailers who could suffer of the situation.

Musically yours,
