FS: Mouthpieces, Cases, Misc

On May 31, the college where I have been teaching for the past two years was closed by the Board of Trustees. They promised that they would pay out our contracts - my contract was for 11 months, but paid out over 12 months, so I had 3 more checks coming.

On Thursday, June 29, I was notified that they were not going to honor that
promise, so off we go into panic mode.

I have two bass trombone cases on eBay:
Altieri:

Edwards:

Mouthpieces - All prices include shipping in the US. E-mail for pics
Olds 3 Small Shank, some pitting and plating wear, shank has been straightened but still a little out of round: $20.

Schilke 53 small shank,some wear, shank has been straightened but still a little out of round: $35.

And to round out the sales, I have a Mid-2010 MacBook 13", 16GB memory, a
256GB SSD, a 1TB hard drive, and I'll throw in two power supplies, an LG
USB DVD burner, and the internal optical drive. It has a clean install of
OS 10.12.5. $400 including shipping.

That's terrible. Makes you wonder where that word "Trustee" comes from.

Very sorry to hear that. Strange.... musicians are normally treated so well

Know how you feel,

Sad part is that it wasn't just me - it was all of the faculty. One of the school's unofficial mottoes was "Achieve the Honorable." I guess the board - all of whom are alumni - slept through that day.
