How can one spend several thousand dollars with confidence to buy a used tuba through eBay, sight unseen, from an unknown seller?  Doesn't the nature of bidding and paying for items on eBay preclude test-paying the horn?
This is NOT a rhetorical question.  I would bid on this tuba myself, but I'm just not familiar and comfortable enough with this format of doing business.  Any comments, BBS readers?
