It's also a problem of people, having been told to buy Buffet, looking on the Internet for Best Price as opposed to working with a reputable repair tech/shop that sets the instruments up that they sell. The shop's price will be higher, probably significantly, than the price that can be found on Amazon or even music outlets like Weiner or WW&BW. But the end result may be much happier.
