We guarantee the highest cash purchase price in the industry for brass instruments.
You are considering selling your brass instrument. You may have left it stored for a while, or you may have continued to use it without having had a chance to take it in for maintenance.... There may be some problems, large or small, but basically, you can sell the instrument in its original condition.
However, there may be some problems, both small and large, but basically, you can sell them as they are. However, there are many people who think, "I should at least check the movement of the pistons," or "The appraisal value might go up if I polish it a little. However, since unfamiliar operation checks and polishing work may lead to unexpected troubles, please pay attention to the following points to protect your instrument from unnecessary accidents!

Please call or email us and let us know you wish to sell.
We will explain the selling procedure.
If you would like to get an approximate estimate, please let us know the type of instrument you have, make, model name, how long you purchased it, and how long you used it. (Approximate is fine.) Please let us know how long the instrument has been in use and how long you have had it.
Regarding the condition of the instrument, please describe the condition of the paint and plating on the exterior. The operation of the piston, rotary, and each tube.
Are there any dents or scratches that stand out? Please describe as much as you know.
CAUTION!
The recycle stores mainly deal in precious metals, watches, bags, and so on. When I ask them about a wind instrument, they become reluctant to sell it to me, and eventually turn me down.
Some shops that claim "We'll buy anything! The majority of items are the same as the above. Some of them may accept the offer, but after checking the make and model name of the instrument, they are done. They are too busy looking things up on their computers and doing calculations. In the end, we were left with an appraised value that, from our point of view, was probably missing one zero. Unfortunately, there are many people who leave the items behind, wondering if that's all there is to it. It is a waste of money.
Indeed, many wind instruments are sold at auctions.
However, most of them end without a single bid, let alone reaching the desired price.
Why is this?
Maintenance and adjustment are the lifeblood of wind instruments. In principle, there are no claims, no returns, and no aftercare guarantees, so buying a wind instrument, no matter how low the price, is a very big risk. Without demand, there is no supply. Auction listings are just a waste of time and effort.
In fact, did you get the wind instruments you have now from a nearby recycle store or online auction?
Most of you probably purchased your wind instruments at a specialty store.
Please leave the sale of your wind instruments to our wind instrument purchase specialty store.
It is quite simple, but it is the right choice.
