Can you give the names or addresses of online fute stores to buy from because I have given up shopping locally and I don't trust the big chain instrument sellers.

I bought my flute from http://www.fluteworld.com

www.flutes4sale.com - this is where I bought my flute and piccolo! They are great!

www.flute4u.com- another great place!

Here is a very useful site that I use
www.flute.com
It has a whole list of places to shop for flutes and other info too.
