Hello,

I want to buy my 9th grade daughter an intermediate clarinet as a holiday gift. (She has been playing a plastic student one since 5th grade.) I found a used E11 Buffet wood clarinet at a music store online and bought it.

But before the fellow shipped it the next day, he wrote me and said it actually wasn't in as great as condition as they thought, and it wasn't actually wood. Instead, they wanted to offer me an Evette & Schaeffer wood clarinet with two stamps on it that say Evette & Schaeffer, Paris France, Modele Buffet-Crampon. He says it's actually a better clarinet, sounds much better, and is vintage with a serial number B5685.

I'm wondering if this is a good quality instrument and what would be a fair price? They are asking for $500.

I would appreciate any advice you can offer. Thank you so much!

Suzy
