Handpan buyer beware! simple tips to protect yourself from scams.
Do your research
You might hear this a lot but it will provide you with crucial information in advance of any possible purchase. First and foremost, don't miss this important article that explores all you need to know to make the greatest option for your future handpan purchase, as well as a comprehensive guide to selecting the proper scale for you.
Ask the community
When you see a promising advertisement with unbelievable handpan instrument prices, ask our fantastic handpan community for their thoughts. Examine feedback from seasoned players. What information can you glean about the vendor or maker? Is there a thorough post regarding the pan for sale? Is there a website? Do they have a YouTube account where they post tens of videos of themselves playing? Do they have endorsements from reputable sources? Is the existing feedback credible? How many of their Facebook friends are handpan players or folks you might already know?
Avoid buying on Ebay
While there may be some honest vendors on there from time to time, the great majority of postings are not worth touching, even with a very long stick. Any seasoned handpan owner and respectable producer will most likely be present in the key Facebook groups and forums (mentioned above) and will post sales there.
If in doubt, contact the seller and ask as many questions as you can, such as why they are selling, whether they can post a link to a current video of them playing, whether you can come and test it out before you buy, whether or not he/she is ready to negotiate on handpan instrument prices and so on.
Never buy on the basis of a photograph
Scams frequently use photographs of gorgeous, high-end pans to lure you in. So look out for 'catfishing.' That is where people take other people's images and publish them online/claim them as their own.
Fortunately, there's an easy method to tell if they've been uploaded frequently by a fraudster or if they've been duplicated from a true original vendor. Use Google's' Reverse image search' to find what you're looking for.
Furthermore, handpan community rules require that every sale post contain a current video, ideally of the seller playing it (every note) personally. Even if real merchants forget, they will always be willing to give a recording if requested.
If you follow these tips thoroughly then no one can scam you into buying broken handpan gebraucht kaufen.
