Make an offer! It needs an overhaul and a lot of polishing, but it's in solid physical condition (except for the rotten, probably original pads, and some missing corks and felts).

Oh yeah, it does not have a case (actually it does but I'm keeping it for my 1919 Buescher True Tone), but you can get a case from Aquilasax for $60 plus $50 shipping, and it won't smell like rotting timbers.

Yes it includes the mouthpiece, possibly even the original one (though I can neither confirm nor deny this). It has no damage to the tip or rails, and has a ligature and cap.
Also I have a Tuxedo gig bag that is tenor size but fits the C-melody reasonably well. There is about four inches of extra space at the neck plug end, but the bell is a tight fit, so it really doesn't move around. I have a homemade "neck plug" long enough to take up the slack if you wanted it, but I really don't think it's necessary.
You should check out the web page, as I have lots of info and pictures that would hopefully answer any questions you might have.

I put it up for auction with a starting bid of $75, but with 0 bidders after 5 days I decided to pull it. I'd rather refurbish it and get something for it than practically give it away -- so if you want a fixer-upper, let me know because otherwise it may not stay that way for long.
