• Instruments for Sale

    • The time has come to reorganize and re-prioritize.
    • One result of this is that I am selling a few concertinas.
  • What
    • These are not my "gems", but neither am I trying to slough off anything that needs major work.
    • Each of these is playable as is, though two of them could definitely be improved by expert restoration.
  • How much
    • I'm not sufficiently up to date on market prices to quote fixed prices.  Instead, I'm taking offers, though I do have certain minimums in mind.
    • It is my purpose to raise some money, not just give these away to make extra room, so please don't waste my time or yours with ridiculously low "offers".
    • If I don't get any offers that I consider adequate for any particular instrument, I'll try selling it on eBay. But I'd rather not have to do that.
  • Payment
    • I can accept payment in Danish kroner or US dollars, or maybe UK pounds.
    • Shipping charges, including insurance, will be paid by the buyer.
