4 posts/threads over 2 months all the same, seemingly asking for somebody to just give you a tiny bach mouthpiece.

Name your price right here on this forum. What is affordable to you?

Why should somebody give it away to you? How about you participate on the forum and then offer a trade on the marketplace if you don't have a little money for a mouthpiece.

Check the Marketplace - Mouthpieces, 12C
You will find a couple of 12Cs for $28. That's as small and as cheap as you are likely to find used.

New - no problem. What you want is available in stock with shipping for a little more than $70.00.

Should you want to keep trying for a used mouthpiece, consider putting you future requests in the TH Marketplace:

WTB Bach 15C- Bach 20C trumpet mouthpiece. Will pay $xx.xx


TH-ers with stock piles of used mouthpieces are more likely to be perusing the Marketplace than here.

Of course these may actually be coded messages instead of a search for mouthpieces.

How exciting. In which case ...

Bach standard mouthpiece new run in the $65 dollar range... buy a new one.
A mouhtpiece with someone elses wear and tear won't be worth the price you pay.

Preferably, go to a store and try out a few.. find one that fits you. Or shop places like MouthpieceExpress that offer a return policy.

This is a ridiculous statement. I own and use many used mouthpieces. I've got almost 50 1 1/4 C range mouthpieces that I use for various things, and I think I've done okay in my career.

it took me about 20 seconds to find this gem: (this is the state of "used" mouthpieces I see way too often... that's all) not so ridiculous.

I’ve bought numerous used mouthpieces over the years. Most were just slightly used and still almost like new, probably the result of someone buying a new one to try out and they didn’t like it. If you’re careful, you can get some great buys on used pieces.

+1

I see a lot of crappy worn out equipment online at high prices online, Doesn't mean I have to buy it.

I have bought probably hundreds of reasonably priced clean mouthpieces to try and resell (and keep) on the internet . I will say that the most likely unseen damage is a drilled out orifice, which has never yet been a terminal form of damage on any I have bought, and I always measure the orifice and reveal it on my sales.

Exercise reasonable discretion, or more concisely, "caveat emptor" buyer beware.

I don't think the possible/probably scammer spam account care much about actually getting a mouthpiece.
