Practise set in Ebay

Hi,
What do you think about this practise set? If we believe in the seller it’s made in the UK

UK SELLER
You are going to buy a Brand New IRISH UILLEANN BAGPIPE PRACTICE SET

YOU WILL BE AMAZED TO HAVE SUCH HIGH QUALITY UILLEANN BAGPIPE IN THESE AFFORDABLE PRICES!!!

Please note that it does not say it’s made in the UK - it says “UK Seller”.

Personally, I’d be wary of an offer to sell any pipes where the maker is not named.

Run away and don’t look back!!!

This part still has me laughing:

Oh no I’m not.

YOU WILL BE AMAZED TO HAVE SUCH HIGH QUALITY UILLEANN BAGPIPE IN THESE AFFORDABLE PRICES!!!

Oh no I’m not.

:smiley:

:smiley: Yes, it looks like a Paki set I know, but I’ve contacted the seller asking him for the name of the maker and he said me the set’s made by UK maker with 15 years of experience and for some fuzzy :wink: reasons he can’t say me his name :confused:

:laughing:

Yeah, he “can’t say his name”.

*wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more! * :laughing: :laughing:

but the first eight come from the same bidder, who has never bought anything else before. I don’t know, but I wouldn’t be in hurry to put my money on that, especially with the ‘mystery maker’.

prob made by Mr. Pat Key Stan . . .
hmm features DUAL air bag.

Now how do we know this is genuine african blackwood? Perhaps it was seen carried by genuine african swallows.

Do not buy.

Look familiar?

Made by MKR Traders of Pakistan.

I got an email from them asking if I wanted to be a customer or distributor of their products. I replied saying I’d be happy to become a distributor but that I would require them to send me a full set of uilleann pipes and allow me 3 months to thoroughly vet the instrument. :smiley:

I also suggested that if they wanted me to publicly endorse their uilleann pipes, I might consider it, but that would be the subject of a separate agreement (and a separate fee). :wink:

I’ll let you know if I get a reply. :sunglasses:

Hey, need a partner? :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

:astonished: That’s the pipes!

I got my reply:

Many thanks for massage. Presently we are manufacturing Half set and Practice set uilleann pipes. Kindly let us know if you are interested in these products. We are quite interested to work with you.

Looking forward to hear from you.
Best regards

Well, should I get into the business of distributing Asian-made uilleann pipes?

I might still for a trade sample half-set and give it an evaluation.

Any thoughts?

Just one thought… sober up mate. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

mabey you should be asking for a sound sample!HA LOL
