cellopera Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 I have never heard of this Belgian maker... https://www.ebay.de/itm/Violoncelle/233151394540?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20170511121231%26meid%3D457aabdde44d4d5890da570bc23886e9%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D233151394540%26itm%3D233151394540&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3Acf0d8c06-40f4-11e9-b400-74dbd1801d15|parentrq%3A58f401db1690a99bd5836ed4ffe81eff|iid%3A1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin swan Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 You have to wonder what the label under the Bourgignon label says. Payment by cheque 48 hours in advance .... oh dear - hardly necessary to look at the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Tavira Posted March 8, 2019 Report Share Posted March 8, 2019 I googled both of them, the "Bourgignon" and "Antony Jassogne" are real people. The price quoted by the Jassogne seems in line with the auctions, so I would suspect on something priced less the half of its value. I also see that the Jassogne does not say it is a real "Bourgignon" just that the label sais that and the value he estimates. The "48 hours in advance" sounds really bad. But the pictures... it doen't resemble to me a 90 year old instrument. The bridge is new and it is badly fitted. I do not know the price of the tickets for your trip but unless you want ot spend a few days on your own I do not see in the Cello a reason to go. But I'm not an expert, I warn you.

Violadamore Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Relisted (at double the original opening bid). IMHO, this offering sufficiently exceeds my usual bidding guideline of "$50 and Free Shipping!!" (as well as meets other unspecified criteria), so as to merit the unprecedented distinction of a VdA Gala Razzberry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
