$160 for a new Altieri?!? hook me up! AFAIK, Altieri bags are all made specific for each horn... I don't know of any "stores" that carry them in bulk. When you buy an Altieri bag from a store, the store places the order with Ms. Altieri, and marks up the price. As they're made one-at-a-time and not mass produced, I doubt that any mass retailers can offer much of a discount beyond what you'd pay for it straight from the source.
Steve's price is the lowest I've seen for an almost-new Altieri. If I had another horn to put in it(or didn't already have an Altieri for my current horn), I'd grab it up in a heartbeat.
