He reiterated to her that hewanted a Tenor Saxophone and that she should only get him theYanagisawa Tenor Saxophoneand to negotiate the best possible price.
Shirley contacted several instrument dealers in the area and told them that she was a famous saxophonists agent and that she wanted to purchase a good Tenor Saxophone. The dealer told her that theYanagisawa Solid Silver Tenor Saxophone Model TWO37was $12,059.00 but he had a similar Tenor Saxophone, a Selmer Paris 54JS, Series II Tenor Saxophone Silver Plated and the dealer would sell it for only $8,189.00 out the door.Without discussing this with the Jazz Saxophonist, Shirley agreed to purchaseSelmer Paris 54JS, Series II Tenor Saxophone Silver Plated, signing the contract with local instrument dealer as agent of the Famous Jazz Saxophonist. The Selmer was shipped to her, but when she then took it to the Jazz Saxophonist and explained what a great deal she had gotten, the Jazz Saxophonist refused to accept it. He has also refused to pay the instrument dealer for it.

She did not tell the Woodwind Reed dealer that she was acting as anyones agent. The reeds were shipped to her, but when she took it to the Jazz Saxophonist, he refused to accept it because he had decided that it would be better to use Rigotti Gold #3 Tenor Saxophone Reeds.

Shirley also contacted an instrument case supplier to purchase a case. She signed a contract in her name alone an MTS Model 7163W Tenor Saxophone Case, which was not the same as theBAM Tenor Sax Trekking Case that the Jazz Saxophonist had told her to buy. When she signed the contract, she told the instrument case supplier that she was acting as someones agent but did not disclose the identity of her principal. The case was shipped to her. Although the Jazz Saxophonist recognized that the case was not what Shirley had been told to buy, he nonetheless agreed to take it, but now refuses to pay the case supplier for it.
