"Starting at $75." I would have to imagine that this is the price for some of the poster's Ambassadors and Reynolds Medalists, presuming the ad is above board.

"Starting at $75..."
Worth a call though, if you're local.

Hey everybody,
I saw this ad and took the risk of buying a sight unseen horn from a stranger.
Everything worked out fine, I got a Olds Special tri-tone in near new shape for $250.
He also offered me the ERA horn and a Superstar for $400.
The prices aren't bad, and he clearly has a huge collection he's trying to pare down.
I did reach out to him to find out more about the remaining horns to see if there was anything else I could afford/justify, but I never heard back from him after the sale.
YMMV, but it worked out ok for me.
