Yes, as you all now know, these scam / sham buyers are now preying on the hornplayer.net and ebay.com crowd. I now have more of these sham emails coming in, and a customer of mine consigning a horn called me to check on the same thing happening to him.
I cannot emphasize enough: check out your buyer as thoroughly as you would a seller. If it smells wrong, don't do it. Never let a buyer send someone to pick up the horn (unless you know them personally), and never give "change" for a sale. You'll be out the instrument, out the money, and awfully angry with yourself. On a related note, I just got my first new, colorful $20 bill.
