Three things happened to me when during that period of time.The last thing on my mind was buying your concertina. I am very sorry you seem to be a very decent fellow. You didn't deserve what you got from me. I was in and out of the bush for several months and there is no contact. Although I did get your messages when I was. back in town. I was ashamed of and did not know how to explain myself.
In the past couple of years I have found that trying to be a great concertina player really isn't who I am. I only have a few years left to do the things I really like doing.fishing, hunting, climbing mountains and just spending time outdoors. I do plan on playing on occasions but it will not be a priority. I only need one concertina and I have decided the Jeffries is the one I have to sell. This is the last time I will post any concertina for sale. This Jeffries is a excellent player and even though I am going deaf I hear it plenty loud and it has a nice tone. If I get what I am asking I will lose more than a third what I have into it
