The date on the listing is Nov 23. It looks like a JP273.. The list price is $1400. I think if anyone is interested @bloke could probably make a pretty competitive offer for a new instrument.
EDIT:CORRECTED BELOW IS JP373 not 273

Thanks, didn't notice the ad was so old.
JP needs to make some 3v comp tubas.

That instrument is gold brass and "Sterling" is easily visible - so it is a 373, and not a 273 (gold brass, and much fancier case).
WERE it a 273 (yellow brass), I would ask only slightly more than that (new).
...but - again - it is a 373 "Sterling" (gold brass). That's a good price for a new-condition/used, but (and I can't zoom the pictures...they're malfunctioning on fb - at least on my laptop) I'm seeing dents, yes?
The way I see it, it just depends on
- whether it's dented (again: I'm only seeing the thumbnail versions of the pictures)
- if there are dents (as I believe I'm seeing) the price depends on how much denting bothers any individual potential buyer.
Do I sell stuff new for way under M.A.P. with shipping included ?
I'm not going to publicly admit whether I do or not.
