Yup,
I don't think Hiniker's are any pricier than a Loree. If you're seeing a high price, it's probably not from Tom, and probably just due to the rarity.
My Hiniker was a great instrument, but just not for me. I would say that while you might not have compared the two makers in terms of how they play, I'd say the two are closer in feel than a Hiniker would compared to a Loree regarding how the instrument takes the air.
I could have continued playing on the Hiniker and been happy, but I had bigger issue with the mechanism and construction of the instrument, which I found difficult to keep functioning properly.
