Personally, I say "post away!" It's one thing to send out advertisements for oils, cases, etc. It's another thing to post a list of "orphaned" horns that are available.
Certainly, I wouldn't check anyone's site on a regular basis for used horns, but if I get that free and easy e-mail, I'm certainly going to take notice. I've bought or had students buy no less than 5 horns from hornplayer.net just because of the horn list e-mail updates.

I notice that hornplayer.net posts the recent listings of used horns every now and then on this newsgroup, and I was wondering if it is something that others of us should do as well? I just added 15 horns this week, but I've always kept away from 'advertising' per se on the newsgroups (even though these instruments all belong to other players). So, I'm curious about your thoughts on this!
