Discovered a small crack in a tenon. Revealed to buyer. Says it's ok with a discount $1500. Hope to send this out this week

In terms of mouthpieces, the Geo M Bundy 3 can be found for about $20 or less, and it's GOLD. Most people won't really need anything better unless they're going pro.

$20? That must be a typo...

Here's one for $20 + $5 shipping. It's a great practice piece for sure.

Most of my clarinets are something other than  nickel plated.  None of those that were have the plating in good shape, even aside from just surface haze.  Anyway, I left everything running a couple more hours and then pulled the keys out, probably around 14 hours.  They look very good.  The polishing looks to me to be gentler than hand polishing with wheels/compounds of various sorts, so no worries there.  The screws that backed out were easily found by dumping the media through a seive.  I'll make sure all are tight next time.  I may do hand some touch up on some of the more significant remaining scratches that happened from mishandling from the instrument's past. I foresee, just as claimed, unplated material keys that are fundamentally in good shape, just dull, will come very nice with virtually no effort.  Overall I'm quite pleased.  Cleaning is the next step and then I'll post some pics.

Got a counter offer of $1600. I'm thinking of coming back with another of $1700. That would be less 10% that is Ebay's cut. I can really use the money, let me tell you.
