I have this link to a survey that they did:

I have a Rigoutat Riec and love it! I also have an old student Fox Renard that is built like a russian tank and will probably outlive the Riec.

Ebay is okay as long as you do your homework first and ask plenty of questions. I bid for an oboe a few years ago but didn't win it. It was being sold by an oboe professor in France on behalf of his student who'd stopped playing. A few polite emails got me a wealth of information and I felt very safe in bidding for it.
