Re: New mouthpiece

To Paul and g8lgr:

I just called Woodwind & Brasswind. I was informed that Vandoren prohibits them from shipping their products to Greece.

I then called Weiner Music. They told me that they cannot ship to Greece and anyone wanting any of their products needs to sign up with www.Bongo.com/shopper as an intermediary shipper. When I put in that website address, it came back as invalid.

So, IMO, the problem is twofold: 1) shipping and 2) receiving a mouthpiece that is in its top playing condition.

There have been numerous positive reviews about the new Rico mouthpieces. However, everyone reports that they are resistant due to their wide tip dimensions. I understand that the Rico's sell for around $75 U.S. dollars and Brad Behn puts them in top playing condition for $50 U.S. dollars. That would be right in your price range. However, I understand that the average shipping cost to Greece is approximately 30 Euros or around $45 U.S. dollars.

Anyone have have any other ideas?
