accordion sellers tell you that they play to gain your confindence that they know what they are doing and to make your feel secure in your purchase
 xxxxx  told me he did not need this accordion anymore cause he just bought a new titano
one would assume he PLAYS so he would know everything that is wrong 

This is a Paolo Soprani Accordion.  It is black with red bellows.  It is in good condition for its age. ( All keys and buttons work). The keyboard is 19 inches from key to key. It has six registers, but combinations of the registers give you more choices than six. The registers are not marked, but the sounds are clear and differentiated.  The sound is pleasant and powerful.

The accordion is marked "Made in Italy".  The padded leather straps are in very good condition.  It comes with a solid case.  The interior of the case is red velour type of material and the exterior is brown.  Although the case has some scuffs, over all it is in good shape.  "I just bought myself a new Titano and no longer need this accordion" one would assume he plays.  I am not sure of the age, but I am guessing late 50s or 60s.  There is cloth in the grill with some minor discoloration.  There are no major scars or chips.  Overall a clean accordion. Personally, I believe that there is some leakage, but I am not certain from where. (I am just trying to describe this accordion as accurately as possible.)  he did not mention that when you push all of the 1st and 2nd row button on the bass side there is a definit leak and the sound barely comes out
one would think the accordion is ok because anyone that plays would know about the leak when he "plays" and the accordion is just fine,,,,probably just some small leak that doesn't affect the playability
BEWARE of sellers like xxxxx "do they really play the accordion"
