Dang! I knew I should have taken a lesson. No wonder I suck so bad at the scottish bagpipes. I've got mine set up all wrong!

Half Set with Peter Hunter Chanter

Translation: I'm selling my Uilleann Pipes Half Set. The chanter is a narrow bore D in Pockholz [lignum vitae?] and was made around 17 years ago by Peter Hunter. The drones are from the McNicholl workshop, the bag from Rogge, and the bellows from Hope. Sold as-is without guarantee. - Mod

D chanter in English holly with 2 keys.

The description mentions "the bottom end hole of the chanter is opened up some to bring the pitch up on the hard bottom D note." Don't know whether this means that the maker did this or whether it was a subsequent owner. Any potential buyer might want to clarify this with the seller.

Here they are again, this set seems to pop up on a regular basis from different sellers, here,s the reply I got from a previous inquiry,
"Thank you for showing interest in my auction. As you saw my BUY IT NOW price for this item is $1800 (shipping charges are included in the BIN price ).For a fair deal i want this transaction to be handled by eBay because they will offer protection to both of us and at the end of this transaction we will be able to exchange feedback.What you see in the auction is what you will receive at your door , i will also offer you 7 Days Return Policy so you can inspect the item that you will purchase from me , in case you are not satisfied you can return it back on my cost and you will get a full refund in the same day .

If you are ready to buy this item now , please provide me your full name and address so i can submit your Offer through eBay and request them to register our deal in their system ." I,ve reported this to ebay, so it will probably dissappear, only to reappear again at some point. Caveat emptor!!
