Troublesome procedures, beat-up buyers, incompetent staff, unexplained fees... Aren't you afraid?

For example, going to a convenience store in the rain to get a copy of your ID is a hassle, and even if the purchase price drops significantly due to a scratch or deficiency as an excuse, it is impossible without the knowledge to argue back, and if you ask for it back again, you may be charged a fee.

It is natural to be anxious, especially if it is your first time to make a request.

・TCGAKKIIn our group, you just need to read the QR code and enter the information on your smartphone to finish the process!
We also have a wide and deep knowledge of our products, as evidenced by the fact that the materials and articles we have accumulated over our 35-year history are still used as references by many music stores and recycle stores, and are sometimes referred to us by other stores.
Of course, we do not charge any valuation fee, shipping fee, or business trip fee.
We have our own professional repair team "TC-TUNE", which handles instruments of professional players. The sound and performance revived by the depth of observation and suggestions as well as repair and adjustment capabilities can result in a higher value of the instrument, which enables us to make a high purchase offer!
We are able to offer you higher prices than you can imagine, especially for used and vintage instruments of prestigious brands.

If you think that there is no difference between the price of a used instrument and the price of a vintage instrument, or if you think that it is too much trouble to bring the instrument in or send it to us, or if you think that the instrument is not worth much, you might want to ask an online dealer to buy it for you.

We are a small group of people who share knowledge and skills, so we cannot respond to requests from all over the country at once!
Therefore, we give priority to those who contact us, and we share our feelings and history of the instrument with each of them before proceeding with the transaction.

Our role is not to dispose of the instrument, but to connect the history of the child.
Please contact us from the button above only if you think you can entrust us with your instrument.

If you are not sure where to entrust your purchase and whether or not you can get a really high price, please read this page and then take your time to make a decision.
