Ouds from the Nile Shop on ebay

Hello again everyone! I've seen on this forum the Nile Shop mentioned often. If anyone has purchased from them I'd love to know what the quality of the ouds they have is. I got burned once on ebay from another seller. Their prices are attractive for a beginner.

Hey Scott,

I have never personally purchased anything from nile shop but from what I've read on the forum, everyone seems to agree that spending more money to get a shehata oud is a better idea. I have gone through two lower quality ouds before and have just recently purchased a shehata. In my opinion, everyone needs that first starter oud to learn on but if you're interested enough to buy a second oud, make sure that it is a good oud that will last and probably gain value over time. There are some really nice deals being offered on this forum. I know Lee has a great pellisander shehata he is selling. Mike also has two very nice shehatas for sale and Zulkarnain has a rosewood shehata that might still be available. You might want to contact them and see if you can work something out. You will save some money on shipping as well because they are located here in the states.
