Buying from WWBW vs. Reputable shop

WWBW is offering a sax Im interested in $400 cheaper than other online dealers. I spoke with a few and of course they were telling me that if I order from them they do the setup and make sure to ship it properly. I know WWBW would not set it up properly and my local techs are not the greatest so it seems. When I ask them about initial setups of new horns they look at me like I'm crazy. The sax btw is a Keilwerth Shadow tenor.

    You need to play a Keilworth Shadow tenor that is in prime playing trim. This will give you a benchmark to which you can compare your new horn. If your $400/discount Shadow doesn't stack up, then you need to have someone set it up. Sometimes a discount in price can be absorbed in trying to get the service you want. Best of luck to you :)
