This is why most other companies don't offer nickel-plated professional models (ex. Yamaha). Personally, I've only ever bought the silver-plated Buffets and have not had any complaints. I feel it is a bad decision to get the nickel.

Additionally, some people's body chemistry seems to wear down instrument keys more. I know I can go 10+ years on an instrument and it will look almost entirely pristine. Friends and colleagues, however, have had the same instrument models and worn them down in no time. While this may not speak to the current state of Buffet nickel horns, its something to consider.
