I have a Signet 100 just like this one, same case and everything. I got it in 1979. Mine looked as new as this one -- in 1979. We paid about the same price -- in 1979.
Since Selmer doesn't make the Signet anymore (they don't, do they?), is this a bit overpriced? I must admit it looks beautifully preserved, right down to the yellow tape on the mouthpiece cap and the swab that looks just like the one I had in 7th grade.

Yours is a better horn, it has years of music run through...
If you're shopping, time to look to a 'step-up' instrument. There are better places for you to put your hard-earned money than in another student clarinet.

Not shopping, just checking the going rate on these things.

Hi,
I will be very surprised if this clarinet gets any bids.

That photo looks like a scan of a 1979/80 catalogue page rather than somthing supposed to be ilustrating the actual instrument.

That makes sense.
Reminds me of what a beauty my girl was when I first got her. Coruse, she's still beautiful to me today.

Yep, and after 56 years of marriage they can also read your thoughts ("What you are thinking of bidding on ANOTHER clarinet?"

Bob,
My wife must be precocious --- she can read my scheming mind after only 8 years of marriage!
Needless to say, I'm not bidding on too many clarinets nowadays, regardless of price..........
