Hello, Can someone help me figure out if we are being taken advantage of? My daughter took band from 4 until 8 grade. We paid $18/month for over 5 years for renting a used instrument. Under the contract, once the child pays off, she is eligible for a new instrument from this rental place. However, after over 5 years of payments we still owed about $200 for a new instrument. Now our daughter decided to join the marching band and the same rental place says that it would be $543 for a new instrument and if we go back to rent a used one, that would be $19/month and again we will not pay in enough for a new instrument after 2 years of payments to get a new instrument because they go up in price every year. I am not sure which type of clarinet they use but I doubt that it is super professional. Can someone give me any advice if we can get a better deal somewhere else? We are in the Pittsburgh area. Thank you!
