Suffice it to say it is a completely different issue all together when someone enters a transaction concerning the purchase of a horn sight unseen and with NO RETURN CLAUSE. Proceeding with a transaction in which the seller does not give you the option of returning the instrument after a reasonable trial period is certainly not wise. If the seller refuses to provide or even seems offended by the request to provide references, pictures of the instrument, work and home numbers and any other information the potential buyer feels pertinent in securing his trust, I believe the transaction should be avoided.
