I can’t say for sure, but it looks like maybe a Loree oboe being sold on eBay is a scam. Be warned! I’d post a link here, but I’m not sure how that all works lawsuit wise, and I can’t afford being sued. And, of course, the IDRS folks who are all writing about this may also be incorrect in their saying it’s a scam. But they are usually right. I wrote to the seller, asking some questions, as did some IDRS members. No one ever answered our questions. This makes us even more skeptical. The measuring tape showing the length of the instrument and then measuring the case as well kind of seals the coffin, so to speak. Let this be your warning.
