Its just form for outward pricessing relief..only postage to pay..so question is does it retain more value if the original maker refaces would it take away from the originallity if another ( no matter how brilliant) refacer does the work...discuss...;-)

That all depends. People who don't know that other brilliant refacer would assume more value if the original maker did the work.

But I would certainly prefer something knowing it had been Pillingered.

NB: you need to do the paperwork for inward processing (unless it is a combined inward/outward which may be the case).

I would not bother as it all adds up: VAT, import duty, postage, handling fee for a mouthpiece that may or may not be easy to sell at the price you want.

It wasn’t really clear, you just mentioned it in passing. If can we assume that you’re offering it on a trial before buying then you might get some interest. Just spell it with your terms and conditions and see if it flies then.

Do you mean in the yard sale..or here..view to buy or just to try my moto..lol
 
Haven’t you got friends who are pro players, this would have been my first choice to see how it plays at the hands of a more experienced player.
You really need to stop buying blindly because these are huge sums of money.
Go to a music shop and try everything they got, you have got a number within your area, doing this will take some of the risk out of buying.

Also you need to know the difference between a frog and a toad. And a prince.

BTW I would be interested to try this, I did have a Morgan Fry Floridated Link. Didn’t like it much though. So maybe that was a toad.
