Hi Roxann,
Thanks a lot for your advice .
I will not be taking my R13 there, I am going to take my MP and a couple of reeds.
I would buy an instrument there only if the price was significantly lower than in the US, which is unlikely.
I was thinking that the prices on used Buffets would be lower in Germany since Boehm system is not very popular there.
However, it seems that there not so many used Buffets for sale either.
In any case, MP does not weigh much.
Thanks again
