Ok so I bought a Hanson alto off eBay (£160), and apart from not including a ligature etc (I bought a cheap Rico in the end) the blinking thing is damaged!
The octave pad is a few mm clear of the hole when in the closed position. I took it down the local shop who said it would be up to £54 to fix this, depending on what else is wrong.
So... should I just get rid, or should I get it fixed (I should be able to get the seller to pay for the repair). I'm keen to start playing and would struggle to afford £400 for a basic student sax at the moment.
Any advice gratefully received!
