I enjoy looking at the deal a day sites like woot.
I just came across a site that opened 4 yrs ago today. So they brought back their opening deal.
It is a Lauren full or half size violin for $39.99 plus $12.00 shipping.
It is selling for $119.99 on amazon.com today.
I know many of you have students taking violin or who will take it at some point. This one is listed as being for "intermediate" users.
The half size might be good if you have a musically inclined smaller child.
Here is what the site says about the violin:
It was 4 years ago today the goingTODAY.com was introduced to the public! Todays violin outfit was the item we opened with so we thought for old times sake we would offer this GREAT deal again. Thanks so much for helping make us a success. We will be celebrating all week so come back everyday for some real surprises. Thanks Again - goingTODAY.com
This Lauren brand full size 4/4 Violin outfit is ideal for the intermediate Violinist! It is specially adjusted following rigid MENC specifications. Hand carved, graduated solid spruce top and solid maple back and sides. It has inlaid purfling and ebony fingerboard and pegs. Features maple bridge and hardwood chinrest. Violin has metal tailpiece with four string adjusters (fine tuners). Outfit includes wood bow with genuine horsehair, lightweight, nylon covered case with carrying strap and accessory pouch, and rosin.. Buy with confidence as this product is protected by a warranty against any manufacturing defects.
This is the EXACT violin and case that is selling for $109.00 and more on Amazon! The only difference is the color of the felt inside the case!
One of the reasons I posted was that I know some of you may be renting instruments. The rental rates are BRUTAL here and this might be an affordable alternative.
Might also be good if the rental ends at the end of the school year. This would let your student practice all summer.
