This case never gave me a day of problem in the 6 years or so that I used it until I got my Orly triple case and started using that exclusively. Granted, The Buffet case was always in a case cover. But the buyer has written to me on more than one occaision complaining of thee case popping open whil carrying it. and has asked for the key so that they may lock it.

My offer, though it means not being able to sell it as I had planned, was to send them the original Buffet case cover that was made for that model case specifically. I have been selling off some of my item that I have no use for since I can no longer play clarinet and have long since sold off my A and E-flt instruments. I'm trying to raise money to put in savings toards a $15,000 saxophone conversion of my Selmer alto to a one-handed mechanism. So I was planning on selling the Buffet cover separately on eBay
