For anyone who has been trying to reach Richard Cook regarding this item, here is his email address:
I tried sending him some emails through the ebay question form and he said he has replied to all of them. I have not received any of the replies, however. Ebay’s system is apparently faulty. This is not the first item that I have had this situation occur. I would suggest contacting him at the above address if you have any questions, or are waiting for replies via the Ebay system.

$300 starting bid for a 4 key Childress chanter in C, one bid and 2 days left in the auction…
Don’t miss out on this deal!
One of my friends is bidding on that.
Cranberry, that is an extremely cool avatar.
Thank you. And Happy 1,000 posts in advance. 
So who ended up getting this chanter? I was in the bidding until the last few minutes when I was out bid by nearly twice as much. Oh well. At least I don’t have to explain anything to the wife. 
Why did the price jump from $450 to $867?
Welcome to eBay…
It’s still less than a new chanter, a good deal in my book.
and in 6 months. Is that a record??

…I dunno. But it sure is a classic sign that I have diarrhea of the fingers. 
OOOh, look, my post counter just clicked up.
Oooh, look, another one.
I had my first thousand posts in two weeks.
Then I got a life.
And I could have my next 1000 in 2 hrs. (look for me over on the Test Forum) 
(but I’ll keep my life)
