There are more knock-off brands on the market than good quality brands. Avoid EBay and Craigslist unless you know exactly what you are looking for. A good place to check first is your local instrument repair shop; they will be truthful with you and may have instruments for sale. A good motto to always abide by, If a deal is too good to be true, then it probably is. Please stick to traditional colors: black clarinets, brass saxophones, silver flutes, silver/brass trumpets, etc. Make sure that the instrument you are buying is music educator approved!
