Having played a Buffet with the Ab/Eb key for many years and a 1971 R13 also for many years without the key, I feel that I like the key but don't think it is much of a factor in choosing a clarinet.
There is a wide acceptance for the R13 in the Los Angeles area at least and with good reasons. It sounds just great and one can overcome any minor tuning situations. The resale value is quite high and the culture accepts one more readily with a Buffet because many consider it to be the standard. While the others are absolutely great instruments, the Buffet is a bargain in addition to being great. On an older R13, it might be a good idea to use a Moennig barrel to help with the tuning. Good luck!
