| wtll the price will vary. It could be as cheap as Ivan said, but music repair shops are all different. Also his trumpet could even be worse than Ivan's because the valves/slides could be messed up too. | ||

| valves and slides I didn't take into consideration. I have no clue how much that could change the price but for a good dent on your leap pipe or bell, you shouldn't pay over 50 dollars to repair. | ||

| Theres nuthin wrong with the slides or valves, its just the bell. So it should be about 50$? | ||

| the offical story that dizzy used was that he laid it down on a chair one time and someone sat on it and it's been like that ever since. now some horns are manufactured like that, but it's just not as cool to say you bought it that way. | ||
