[Trombone-l] eBay humor, trombone related

[Elliott Moxley]

eBay needs to do some serious work on their search engine!!

My wife recently bid on a Bach 42-B on behalf of one of her students.  She didn't win the auction, and got the standard "Sorry you didn't win this time--" email, which also listed other items available.   There were other 42-Bs and a good selection of woman's underwear, size 42-B!  

Now, we have a divided household here; she likes Bachs and Courtois instruments, I prefer vintage Elkhart Conns and my Olds Opera.   If I were to bid, unsuccessfully, on an 88-H, would eBay direct me to some pup tents, joined at the hip?

Gotta love it-

(And we've seen a trombone with a missing inner slide at one of the flea markets.  "Any music store can get that part for you-"   Yeah, rIght-)
