It seems he posted this auction prematurely and is not good at marketing.

I'm not doing very well am I. This was supposed to be the month of purchase, but there seem to be fewer instruments available now. The end of the month is about to come up, and still no purchase. However, that does mean that my budget increases again.

Everything that comes up is slightly .... wrong somehow. E.g. this one, a bit pricey BIN I think, left handed, and pickup only in a place I can't get to. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290468674571 That's what's been happening.

If I get to December or so, my budget will have grown such that I could consider a UK made Westone. Eventually I want both Matsumoku and UK made instruments.

lol; I emailed the bloke for a pic
