>> In my opinion it is the techs duty to repair an instrument in such a way that it is difficult to tell that the instrument was damaged and repaired. It is the responsibility of the seller to inform prospective buyers of repairs made. <<

For example with pin holes, it's possible to make them completely invisible. There is no way the owner or anyone can remember exactly where they are, which is the issue, as opposed to just knowing the clarinet had pins. Informing a buyer will not help with this. Plus if it's not for sale at all it might be pinned again later, possibly by a different repairer. For example it happened that I pinned a clarinet decades after it was already pinned, in the same area.
