Buy Yamaha or Buffet?

I am shopping for an intermediate clarinet for my sophomore daughter. I've gotten different opinions on Buffet vs. Yamaha. The e-11 and e-12 Buffet are made in Germany - does this make a difference? Is the e-13 significantly better than the e-11 or 12? Does the Yamaha and 34 and 52 have major differences other than nickel vs silver keys? What about resale value of both? I also found a like new Leblanc Infinity retailed at $2700 and will sell for $1200. Is that a good deal? It seems retail prices are really overblown? I would appreciate any help! Thanks!
