That's what my band director recommends to us. You could probably search for a cheaper used one on Ebay...

My two cents: never buy an instrument that you haven't tried, and never buy an instrument that you can't return. It just isn't worth it. Get something that you know is quality, and that you know you like to play! It is tempting to get those "great deals" on ebay, but they're really not so great. Instead, check out the craigslist for your page, and try a used instrument out in your neighborhood. Take someone along for safety... even I do that! Then, you know you're getting an instrument that works. I agree with the other posters.

They are poorly made with poor materials, and if and when something breaks, you will NOT find replacement parts that fit. The fall apart very very easily.
