Report
Ken had assisted me in professional and thrust-worthy manners when selling my music instrument. I wanted to sell it with a bit higher price, as it has been kept in an excellent condition, however, Ken's opinion sounded reasonable and appropriate. Ken is a very knowledgeable and honest person, and then it is recommended to purchase/sell music instruments through Ken.
