Has Trumpet!
I hope we made a good call. I went back onto Craigslist and followed up all the old trumpets that were still there that seemed suitable and got a bite from a month old yamaha ad (no pic). I got the owner to send pics and Hector's band leader (who had been rejecting everything -including the trumpet so generously offered by a dwellar)) said "that's the one, go for it" So we did. Ideally the band leader wanted us to leave a deposit and take it for her to try, but that wasn't going to happen. She told us what to look for, hector played it a bit and it sounded OK and there's only one little dent.
fingers crossed for when the band leader sees it tomorrow.....
thanks all for your help
