eBay - Favourite Search: contrabass clarinetThese two items look
suspicious. Does anyone know anything about them?
On looking at the sites I note that the location is "UK , USA"
in the United States. The photos look as if they've been taken off the
internet. They are classed as "private auctions".

no serial numbers? bidder names kept private? zero feedback for
