This is an important topic, essentially whether we should allow use of this forum to be an internet tool that allows our forum members to publicly get more information about a particular item for sale than Ebay or other strictly-business websites, or whether there should be a total gag order on any public comments, true or untrue, about the item, reliability or honesty of the merchant, or members' experiences in dealing with that merchant or instrument. Since this is not a trivial question and is likely to engender much discussion, I think we should move this discussion to its own thread. It is not directly relevant to this advertisement or the particular drums this merchant is selling.
To this end, I have started a thread in the General Forums, Open Discussion section entitled "Ban public discussion of instruments for sale or sellers?"
