What are you talking about? I hate flutes! I feel so dirty when I touch one. Especially my own. I disgust myself.

So how do I avoid this dreadful eventuality?

Not buying a flute is not an option, I've been putting this off for 18 years!

Darvlay is kidding: he doesn't really have one, either. He's always borrowing SassyQuatch's, because Sassy's never using it.
Not sure how much either of them paid.

What sort of price range are you looking at?

Sadly not a lot, probably the cheapest new ones going, so €200 max.

Oooooh! That's one of those nifty skin flutes right? If so, you're not charging enough.

I bought my mum 1 for under £100 last summer and it was decent enough. Lost the web address for the company - might be this http://www.daveballard.co.uk but I'm not certain. Don't seem to be any for under £100 - the cheapest is £170 but worth looking at the site - click on search this site and search for flute and it comes up with a few places that sell for under £100. Good luck
