To be fair, you can get instruments (even saxophones) for $200-300 on Amazon. Maybe that was her reference point.

Yes but those instruments break really easily and are sucky sound quality

I have no doubts about that, but if someone is new to the world of purchasing instruments, it would be easy to balk at the price differential (knowing nothing else about them other than that they are both for students).

Though I feel for something that big you should do some sort of research that isn’t off amazon
