Now for Sale, Alexander gold brass F tuba

Post by Mary Ann »

Gold brass. Shop said it appears to have had very little use, plays basically like new. I'm guessing it's about 30 years old; very light weight. It has a good condition pre-China Reunion Blues cordura case that fits well, clam shell, very long zipper.

I was informed by a friend that the price was too low for this particular tuba, and sorry but here is a new price where I'll start. Not intentinally playing games.

$10,500 and all offers will be presented to the owner. I am not the owner but am facilitating the sale. We do NOT want to ship ths tuba for obvious reasons, but will ship at buyer's expense and risk. -- Meaning, it is paid for, with shipping, before it leaves here. I have successfully shipped tubas without damage, but nothing is guaranteed; you cannot protect against everything that can happen, like a fork lift through the box.

Trying again:

Tuba is in Tucson, AZ.
EDIT: Gmail has decided to treat me badly in order to get a phone number out of me, so that email address is now not any good, because I willl no longer access it due to not being willing to give out my phone number to gmail.
I'll be putting this on the Phoenix Craigslist and that will have its own way of contacting me.

I have gotten two requests from people who want to access this folder on dropbox; I thought everyone can see the pics?

And the requested access included editing -- which under all circumstances is a nope anyway.

The two names given me who want editing access are Charley Pollard and Daniel Sanchez. I don't know if these are real people or not.

Hi this is Charley, I'm not able to access the folder. When I click the link it just says I don't have access to this content and that I need to request it.

When you first posted the link, I could freely access the pics. Now it's asking me to sign in which can be via Dropbox, Google or Apple account. I did not try logging in.

I don't know why that happened -- I'll do it over.
If this share doesn't work (edited initial post) I'll shrink them all to fit and post tomorrow on here. Sorry about that, I was trying to avoid the hassle of shrinking them so I could put in the post. I dont' know any other way of doing it.

It's working again without asking for a sign-in.

Bump. In another few days I will put it on the Phoenix craigslist, but wanted to give people here a chance first.

@chaspol3 I have sent you two emails and one DM, and you have not answered. So I'm concluding that you are no longer interested.
