Hi AlexCJones
You'll have to send the "green" one to Germany *g*
I am looking forward to playing the low fifth that I am missing now on my treble stagi...

He offers direct buying which is a no no on ebay. And uses offensive language. I wouln't touch it.

Bon Jour Juliette
It is wonderful to listen to your music and well yes a bit frustrating too ;-).
On your website there is nothing told or shown about your instrument(s)? Maybe this would be interesting not only to me but to many others who are in love with this marvellous instrument.
Thanks for playing

Hey
It's quite funny to read about all of this, coming from the "free" evil west and having been guest at least once a year in the liberal and philantropic east as a child.
I remember the GDR as a country full of - well yes - calm and friendly people closed in by some always smiling guy called Erich Honecker and his folks. The people I met were afraid of talking about their actual thoughts because you could never be sure whether one of the Stasi guys was around to listen carefully.
Confessing members of the lutheran church were hardly allowed to study at the technical university and all the letters we got from there had wrinkeled edges at the opening caused by the steam to open and read them at the office before we got them.
Talking about the GDR as a lost paradise is as stupid as it is ignorant - sorry for the harsh words - Maybe you know the films "The Lives of Others" or "Good bye Lenin" which show partly the reality, the second mentioned also a bit of the "Ostalgie" someone wrote about earlier.
The best to you all

Those still do get pretty good prices at ebäh - try it there an don`t forget to give the brand stagi which is the same thing.

Concetina Connection advertise it here on their own website. It was exhibited there for quite a while and now it seems they want to sell it for good. They asked 2200€ for it - well nobody wanted an instrument with 430 Herz.

This Concertina is offered on Ebay - I wonder what it is and well it might be really cheap because so little of the concertinists do speak french ...

As far as I understood the rules (...) this is quite ... ummm ... oh can someone explain this again??
what do the others say?
I am not convinced that this was it!

Thanks so far -
Well the thing with the bellows is a mystery. Look at the ledger for Concertina 33654 - here is the mirror entry - they obviously swapped the bellows of two concertinas.
Erinoid studs means ... what? The buttons are some ancient kind of plastic or what studs are meant by that?
Interested to find out more

Hmm - *scratch my head* I thought I'd given the adress - maybe not - so here it is.

This is sold as a wheatstone and I have no doubt that it is one - but:
Is it a cheap one, is it a treble or a baritone - can this be seen from outside?
From the ancient pricelists it seems to be one of the simple models - but I'm not sure.
How much would you expect to be the price for it?
I don't want to buy it but I am curious, trying to get information about this new topic.
By the way I am totally new to this forum and want to say hello to you all.
