Re: [Harp-L] Best Deals Eva and the Harmonicas...



Echoing my thoughts exactly. ÂThey didn't mind selling them to a liquidator but don't like them selling them online.Â
I have been reading the seller reviews and there have been many satisfied harmonica customers.
I am letting my order ride and will see what I get.Â
These prices are good enough to take the risk. ÂI don't mind doing my own repairs of needed.Â
My 2 cents.Â

Still, if Suzuki was concerned about unhappy customers with non-warranty
harps, they should have scrapped them, not sold them. Is having them
trickle out of a store front really any different that selling them on
Amazon?

We (as buyers) have no way of knowing any of this, but any preemptive,
informative posts on harp-l would likely be welcome by those that are
interested. It would have been appropriate given that you had already had
"dozens of calls from disappointed customers", and may well have made some
of us think twice before we made the purchase and not after the fact when
that information is considerably less useful.
