Mike in Oban Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I have two cases to sell - both speculative purchases on my part which didn't fit the instruments I was aiming for. The Wheatstone is a really lovely case in useable condition. The leather is scuffed, and there is no key, but otherwise it's great - see pics. As a size guide, it's clearly intended for a larger instrument, but it is just too small for my 64 button Aeola. I'm asking £150 + delivery for it. The Jeffries case is less lovely. Again there is no key, and you have to open the clasp by wiggling the keyhole. The felt lining is also in poor condition, and should really be replaced. Other than that, it's fine. For size, I can confirm that it is too small for a common 48 button Wheatstone English. I'm asking £60 + delivery for that one. Happy to answer any questions, Mike Wheatstone pics: Jeffries pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Winters Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Mike, Is the Wheatstone case still available? It looks like it will fit my 1923 tener/treble Aeola which measure 7-1/4" X 7-1/2". Any idea how much to ship to USA? Postal code 60033 (Chicago area). Let me know, Thanks!! Sandy W. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Oban Posted April 9, 2023 Author Share Posted April 9, 2023 Hi Sandy - thanks for your message. Quotes for posting the case to USA from the UK are around £60 - though that only includes £50 damage cover. Re size - here's a picture of my Aeola 64 key, which is too big for the case. It measures 7-1/2" across the flats - so yours might just be a bit tight. best Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Winters Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) Hi Mike, thanks for the quick reply. I'm willing to take a chance on it. How do you want to handle payment?? PAYPAL is easiest for me but I can get you the money any way you'd like. Sandy Edited April 9, 2023 by Sandy Winters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Oban Posted April 9, 2023 Author Share Posted April 9, 2023 Hi Sandy - great. Let me sort out the shipping and get an exact cost - it will take a couple of days because of the Easter holidays. Could you send me a private message with the delivery address please? Yes - Paypal is fine with me. best, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Winters Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Hi Mike, sounds good. I'm not in a rush so take your time. I'll PM you my shipping address....I'll need your PAYPAL email/account as well. Thanks!!! Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike in Oban Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 Excellent - looks a perfect fit. I'll make a contribution to concertina.net. The Jeffries case is still available - if anyone is swithering, make an offer. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
