Hi guys! I just wanted to share with you my experience in buying an erhu for my child. I chanced upon this friendly guy selling brand new erhus on carousell for prices much cheaper than what my daughter's erhu teacher was quoting me! My daughter is sec 1 this year and just started learning the erhu, and I felt it was good if she had her own erhu, so she doesn't have to use the school's erhu which isn't very good. Her teacher told me that a good erhu would cost me more than $2k, while a performance-grade erhu would cost at least $3.5k. The $2k erhu is made from aged redwood while the $3.5k erhu is made from sandalwood by the pupil of a supposedly famous erhu master in China called ēę ¹å
“. I thought the price was a bit too high so I looked through carousell and found this guy:

He's very responsive and friendly, and is also very kind too as he said he gives discounts if the erhus he's selling are meant for students! To cut the long story short, I bought a sandalwood erhu from this seller in carousell for $2k, a much better price as compared to what my daughter's erhu teacher wanted to sell me at! He is also selling the aged redwood erhu too but I decided that the sandalwood would be a better investment for my child 
I'm not related to this seller, but I feel that he's really very friendly and has helped me to save quite a lot of money, therefore I'm helping him promote now! He even explained to me how to determine an erhu's quality when I met him to collect my erhu because I told him that I have totally no clue about erhu at all, I just didn't want to get cheated by my daughter's erhu teacher!! I hope he will still be selling in the future if my daughter wishes to buy another erhu
