Even though it looks just like the 1 that sold, I won't feel right re-using the old eBay pictures. I'll be taking pictures of my remaining Yamaha YHR-321. With those 2 instruments out of here, today is French horn photography day. Meanwhile, not only did I flip my French Horn Rescue Elkhart Conn 8D, I also sold my previously flip-resistant Yamaha YHR-321 Bb single horn that I've been trying to sell for months & months. I noticed that Quinn The Eskimo buys instruments using a different eBay user name from the 1 he uses for selling - not that there's anything wrong with that. Quinn The Eskimo sniped in with 4 seconds left in the auction, overtopping 4 earlier bids from other people. I bought the 'rescue' horn in terrible condition off Craig's List, got it totally repaired functionally (but not refinished for looks), & marked it up appropriately for my eBay starting bid amount.

The price he paid doesn't leave much margin for reflipping far as I can see, although some of those classic Elkhart 8D 'Connstellation' French horns have sold for a pretty penny.

It's surprising to me that a horn flipper like Quinn The Eskimo sprang for my 'rescue' French horn. I have sent in losing bids on plenty of Quinn The Eskimo's eBay offerings, but I have not (yet) bought any of his inventory.
