Just browsing through WW&BW's 2nd hand inventory and
noticed they have a Miraphone contrabass trombone for $3200, marked
down due to the repair to the bell section.  It seems to me that they
*often* have a CBTbn with bell damage: are these horns particularly
prone to that?

Colleagues,

Here's a link to the Ebay listing for a modern contrabass flute by Kotato.  Current high bid is $11,145.00 and the reserve has been met.

Probably the same one, not exactly a fast moving item even in pefect
condition.

Beautiful horn!  I notice that all the pictures are of the instrument
in its case: I wonder if they ever figured out how to assemble it?
(Probably the first 10 pages of the owner's manual...) ;-)
