I rolled the dice and bought this cornet in "as is" condition on eBay. It's got a larger-than-usual bell, which makes it unusual, and possibly worth keeping. However, the lead pipe is completely trashed, it has some moderate denting, and a former solder point is the pits.
Should I fix it, sell it, or lamp it?
