Thanks for the fine price comparison. Costco has a good price. Remember, 
however, that for some of the models, you only buy it once.

If you blow a reed and don't do reed repairs, you can just replace the 
reed plates, a simple screwdriver job. Cost of a set of reed plates for 
the Promaster Valved runs only about $25 at C2C, a lot less than a new 
one. The harp body is indestructible. It includes a solid cast aluminum 
comb and will probably be in good condition long after I'm gone.
