In the last half hour before a concert (this was in 1992 or such), I was offered $50 for a reed I had made: I refused to sell it because (apart from disliking the guy) I was lending it to a very young oboist (student of the guy) in a youth orchestra AND it was SPLIT!

The fracture could only be seen with a bellied placque inserted, but it still played marvellously!

I should have had it encased in plexiglass!
