Chiff and Fipple Forums

[Thread revival. - Mod] Loren! I came across this old thread and searched my records. In an old email containing an old spreadsheet of all my PayPal transactions in 2006, I found the buyer. I have a name, an email address and physical address (as it was in 2006). You disappeared from Facebook! I’m ...

Thank you for clarifying the cut, kmag. Karl, I don't understand the question, but the flute has been sold.

It has come to my attention that mass Irish flute obsession isn't what it used to be. Still, it's a lovely one! I am open to offers and have reduced the price on the listing SUBSTANTIALLY.

I just listed the best-playing flute I've ever owned as a Buy It Now on eBay. I don't play flute anymore. Time to let it go.

I also listed a Shakulute, which is a shakuhachi headjoint for a Boehm flute.

I just listed two instruments on eBay:

Olwell Bamboo A Flute

Abell Blackwood Headjoint

I will comment, as the buyer, who is IN LOVE with the flute, has been made upset by the post that said that Olwell could create magic for under $1000. Most of you know me and my experience. I owned over a hundred flutes over the years, and I sold them all (I have one Irish flute left that I got in t...

Hi, it's me. :) I have held onto this flute through all flute sales over the years. It has that extra something special that cannot be described in words. Of all the (about 15) Olwells I owned at various times, this was the only one I kept. I tried to get more like it, but the ones I commissioned fr...

Oh! Thanks for the info.

For some reason, the forum is not allowing me to edit the above post (I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that someone tried to break into my account - I have a pretty good guess as to who it was). The Copley Boxwood F flute is sold.

I need to raise some money for a new spinning wheel. :) I'd like to be paid through PayPal. Prices include shipping to anywhere (insured in the US, not insured worldwide). Please email me: jessie AT madefromcoins DOT com. Without further ado... http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4085/4843658431_ec9af89a...

The Copley Pink Ivory F is sold.

The boxwood one and the Olwell bamboo A remain.

There is special treatment available for people named Patrick Jones.

The "dealer" tells me that pink ivory and boxwood shouldn't cost any more than blackwood. And yet they often do. Here's what I told him: ----------- Flutemakers find pink ivory quite difficult to work with, and it splits more often than other woods, so there is often extra work, and loss o...

I received a PM from someone who says he is a dealer of Dave's flutes and that I should check my prices against his. I have bought and sold rare whistles and flutes (always as a hobby) for well over 10 years, and I do know QUITE a bit about market value. I recently sold an 8-key Murray (that was pro...

The Murray is sold. The other three are still available. And lovely.
