I want to buy a violin, are these quality?
i want to purchase a violin, so i’ve been looking on craigslist and amazon. i know craigslist isn’t always the best to buy from, but i found two ads in my area that look promising. i also found one on amazon that looked good. i need the price to be low (preferable under $100) but i also want it to be alright quality. i know next to nothing about what makes a “good violin”, so are any of these quality? or are the prices too good to be true?

there is no way of telling anything about any of them, without actually playing each and every one.
At those prices, they are probably toys.
I won’t buy any instrument that I haven’ personally played myself first.
I ‘ve heard too many stories of people getting ripped off on ebay and craigs list
