Subj: Re: [kl] How much to sell my clarinet for

I would suggest getting in touch with Walter Grabner. He seems to do a very
good job with reselling used clarinets. He can be contacted through his
website:
http://www.clarinetxpress.com/

As mentioned by Fred J., most places will have a fee for their service,
usually a percentage of the sale price. However, in my experience a
reputable repairman and reseller of instruments will get you a higher price
than you would otherwise, and handles the details of instrument trial
shipping, etc.

By the way, I played on a Selmer Series 10 A for years (until it was
stollen), and it was a great instrument, IMO.
