Chatty concertinist (4/6)

  1. I get these from time to time as trades. This one looks very well taken care of. Comes with soft case and Rochelle tutor. $350 + $15 domestic shipping SOLD Via EBAY
  2. Your right, it was your son who accidentally bought the concertina with your eBay account while you were in the hospital. Good thing is we worked together and got it fixed fast. I hope your doing well 😊 and our house and shop is open to you anytime you want to visit. Seth
  3. If anyone doesn’t fully understand what Joachim is talking about I’ll explain. He had one of my concertina listings on his eBay watch list and accidentally bought it and let me know right away before I shipped the instrument so I was able to just send a refund right away and re-list the auction. Anyways, it’s not a problem at all Joachim, I got the auction relisted and sorted out. I actually did the same thing you did last year when I accidentally bought an Accordion on eBay that was on my watch list. I fell asleep with my phone in my hand scrolling through eBay and somehow bought a $2000 accordion in my sleep. The seller understood and just as I did with you got me refunded quickly. I try to not fall asleep looking through eBay anymore, 😂. Anyways, don’t lose sleep over it, everyone makes mistakes.... We’re human. Cheers, Seth
  4. Yes indeed. I still have the original end plates for two styles of Harold’s square concertinas. Seth Hamon
  5. I just listed a really nice Clover for anyone looking for one.
  6. Used Wakker C/G Clover Anglo. Fully functioning and ready to play. All leather airtight bellows in great overall condition. Session ready. $1900 https://swedishbagpipes.com/available-instruments Cheers, Seth
  7. I’ve been wondering about PVA Sizing which is the rabbit skin glue alternative for canvas sizing. It’s supoosed to be more flexible than standard PVA which is the reason why folks avoid standard PVA in the first place. Has anyone used these more flexible versions of PVA in bellow making? I use bottled liquid Tightbond hide glue for bellows and am messing with rabbit glue but that stuff is so sticky and messy. So, anyone use PVA Sizing formulas? Seth
  8. This is the message I get on Stamps.com when I try to print a label to the U.K. It gives me a pop up box with further info and this is what it says. This is also what I’ve found on the USPS website as well. It does give me an option to bypass this but warns that it could be held in customs or returned. Some folks are saying this change is an EU thing that was decided before Brexit and the U.K. agreed to follow through even after leaving the EU. It leaves me wondering if this will be an issue to EU countries as well. Lots of confusion to go around. Seth
  9. I went to ship some reed sets to the UK today and got the message that I need a VAT number to ship to the UK. USPS is telling me I have to open an account with the UK and collect VAT and make quarterly payments of collected VAT. This seems a bit odd, never heard of anything like this ever. Don’t most countries handle their own customs taxing on their residents? Most of what I send to the UK is over 135£ so maybe I can get around it for the time being. Seems of that I would have to collect taxes for the UK and pay them quarterly. Cheers, Seth
  10. They use the Italian system for knowing which reeds to make for you. Here is the chart which has the number along with the note by octave. Accordion reeds table.pdf
