I GIVE two reeds at the start of the year. After that the parent buys =
the reeds. If a kid snagged a reed, I would consider that an accident =
and replace the reed at no charge (good customer relations).

Be careful here. I gave a Legere reed to a beginning student and he =
snagged the tip on his shirt within 15 minutes. The reed never played =
well after that and the parents were out the $13.

$13 buys a lot of Ricos!
