I recently took a hit on a banjo purchased from Bill's Music in Maryland. (Ebay user ID: billsmusic) The photos , strategically provided to keep undisclosed damage hidden, did not show obvious, extensive damage to the interior of the banjo. Contacted the seller who claimed all sales were "final with no returns". Not the kind of folks I want to do business with again.

  • "I'm SORRY I haven't contacted you until now; my computer BLEW up!! The case I bought from you was absolutely perfect!!! It fits my old SS Stewart banjolin like a glove. It was even better than you described at a very fair price. Thank you for your excellent service....Kay"
