Buffet serial numbering

Author: gatto

I am wondering about the progress of the Buffet serial numbers in the last two decades. The website

http://www.woodwindforum.com/clarinetperfection/snbuffet-serial-numbers/

says that about 2005/2006 reaching the serial number 600000 the "noting returned". I understand this means the numbers then decreased? And later the increased again? Doesn't it mean that different clarinets have same serial numbers? (Or were there gaps between serial numbers which could then be filled.)

My own Prestige RC's have numbers around 420000 (built in 1996) and 690000 (built last or this year). Until recently I thought the numbers just increased chronologically.

Anyone who knows more details?
