Good to see that guy came down to reality with his pricing. The original $11,000 was a bit optimistic...

Maybe I'm off the mark... But I think 6500 is unrealistic.

If you want the best, bloke is rebuilding one that'll end up being expensive and worth it.

I don't have a Holton, but I have a couple Martins listed here that fall order the "other large BBb tuba" category if you're interested.

The price is still high, but at least a reasonable place to negotiate from. The seller is in college. Lots of stuff to learn.
