I think I've been 'stung' by a seller on ebay. Being naive, I thought I'd got a bargain (foolishly) and bought a B&H Regent for approx £30. However, when it's arrived today, it has two different serial numbers on - 33**** on the upper joint and 38**** on the lower joint.
I'm not sure of its age (after looking around the net came up with early 70's??) and most of the pads have been renewed. At the moment the cork isn't too much of a problem, but it will need renewing soon.
The problem is, and I'm in two minds whether to email the seller because the item isn't as advertised - if I spend money recorking etc, and decide in the future to sell the clarinet (its to be used as a spare or for outside) I'm sure I'll lose out as it isn't so much a clarinet as two clarinets 'shunted' together. And advice greatly appreciated...
