I was lucky to get my 1979 Marigaux d'amore for £2000 from John Myatt back in 2007. It's full German spec (fully auto 8ves, conservatoire 1-2-3 mech, roller F key, F resonance key and low B-C link) which I had a thumbplate and 2nd 8ve touch fitted to. It came with the two original Marigaux crooks plus a Howarth crook which I normally use with it.
It had only been lightly played in all that time and still had all the original skin pads and all key corks present. I stripped it down and cork padded it throughout. Tuning on the trill keys was a tad wild so I've filled both the trill toneholes in to bring them down to pitch.
