  1. Look around and compare prices.  A musical instrument for $20 is possibly a scam.  It might not be, but usually a clarinet can cost upwards of $200.  I looked up some numbers.  You can find one for about $150 but generally they can cost from $300-$1000+.

    Also, check out this clarinet site to see what prices are really like, http://www.nextag.com/clarinet/search-ht...

    Hope you find what you're looking for!


  2. no

  3. Wait thats crazy!!

    You mean $200 right??

    my first clarinet was $150

    so id say thats a reasonable prcie

    plus if its really worth 20

    then its probly broken or something

    it also depends on the brand

  4. What!!!???  that's a rip off!!! Deffinetly try to look for a cheaper one!

    Don't forget to buy the reeds!

  5. No way! They usually cost hundreds, or even thousands of dollars, just like any instrument.

  6. Are you serious? Look up any major music store online and you will see they are much more expensive.

  7. HI W.W.

    Your sister has not bought any clarinets lately... has she?   The only clarinets you can get for $20.00 is a BROKEN one or one without half of the pieces.   Toy clarinets from China will cost you $99.00 and beginner clarinets from brand name makers will start at $400.00.    So you were right to ask that question here.....   I think you are finding that everyone agrees....  there are NO $20.00 clarinets.

    Thanks for reading.

    I guess I forgot to mention....   once in a while you will find a cheaper clarinet in a yard sale or garage sale...  but that does not happen all of the time.

  8. i would say that's very low for a clarinet almost unbelievable

    most musical instruments cost hundreds of dollars

    you may want to do your research on this clarinet

  9. i wouldnt buy that clarinet!!!!!!!!its made of plastic and you will sound terrible!!!!!!!!i suggest a buffet or yamaha

  10. That depends on whether you are buying new or used?  It sounds as if you desire a used one?  I am not sure of the reasons why you are looking for one, but generally they can cost from $200 to over $1000.  It also depends on what brand you are buying.  If you desire and have not already looked, try looking on the discount sites such as Ebay and Amazon.  You might also want to try looking in your local area for small music instrument stores. The owners are more likely to cut a deal and throw in lessons/coaching if that is what you are looking for.  They also may be more willing to give you a rent to own agreement.  Good Luck!!!!
