Did you also notice he called the pinky hook a "duck's foot". Doubt he has actually ever really seen a duck's foot. He has enough of the lingo do be dangerous. Fortunately, no one has placed any bids on it.
Had a similar experience a few years ago when someone advertised an oboe they were selling on eBay as a rare special one that played down to A. After looking at the photos I emailed the seller stating that the oboe had a Bb resonance key, not a low A. He responded very angrily talking about how long he had played (and like this seller that he was an expert). I didn't take it any further since it was clear he wouldn't listed.
