Looking to buy Bflat/F Anglo concertina

Currently playing a Jose Claro small C/G Anglo concertina. Interested in acquiring a Bflat/F. Looking for one with metal buttons and easy to play bellows. Also wondering if a C/G could be tuned to Bflat/F. Open to that possibility. Thanks for any info or referrals.

I have a 30-button C. Jeffries Bb/F with metal ends, all-black bellows (surely not original), and metal buttons. It plays very well and has a lyrical, comfortable voice (that is, doesn't bark the way you'd expect a Jeff to do). Greg Jowaisas, who put it into playing order for the previous owner, told me that it has reeds from different makers, including Jeffries, but it sounds very balanced. 

 

I know nothing about shipping / receiving concertinas between here (Washington State, USA) and Ireland,  but I'd like to clear $4,500 USD when the dust has settled.
