nicx66 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 This posting seems to be a bit off to me. The reed pans and ends (pictures) are of an eight-sided concertina, whereas the bellows seem to belong to a six-sided instrument. Am I missing something? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wheatstone-56-key-Aeola-Concertina-/262535062496?hash=item3d204f23e0:g:1N8AAOSwj2dXj0NU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Levine Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 You are absolutely right. It looks to me as if the first picture -- the lower left in the thumbnails -- shows a totally different instrument. If this is a scam it isn't very well thought out, is it? It's laughable.

malcolm clapp Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 (edited) The seller, djangojessie, is in fact a member of this forum and is personally known to me. I've sent him a message....

djangojessie Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Added is a new photo of the bellows from a different angle to my ebay ad Thank you Malcom P.J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWL Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I bought an upscale concertina from djangojessie. He's a legitimate seller. There had been (an unknown to him) problem with the restoration but he stood behind the sale and had Greg Jowaisas do the correction at no cost to me.

nicx66 Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 It must have been a weird angle on those bellows pics, my mistake. Hope this is all cleared up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
