Somebody Got A Bargain

[RWL]

For whatever reason, copy and paste don't work for me at Concertina.net, or I'd give you the eBay link.

 

Search for "Wheatstone English Concertina / Accordion / Accordian 56 keys Works: See video"

 

56 Button extended treble ebony Aeola for $1225 in good condition. Serial number dates it to 1967. Not the best era, but still a pretty good concertina for what the buyer paid for it.

I learned that Internet Explorer is the cause of the posting problems. Below is the link to the Aeola. It would have gone for only $940 but another bid came in in the last few seconds that raised it to $1225.

I am guessing it was not built in 1967?

Serial number 36924 and here's the link to the Horniman site indicating it was built in 1967.

I think that the way it was handled in the video might have put off some potential bidders....
