[quote name='LWTAIT' post='340087' date='Nov 28 2008, 09:47 PM']id say we forgive jake. he should pay back the fund and then it should be done. i'm not saying forget the matter, i know this is gonna be in my mind whenever i buy from now on, we should all learn from this, and i know i'm not gonna trust jake again soon. but lets not be too hard on the guy, everyone does bad things (im not going to be foolish enough to call it a mistake, he knew what he was doing) sometimes, and provided IncX doesn't want to press charges or anything i for one am happy to let it drop.[/quote] Its people with attitudes like yours that let murders and paedophiles roam free on our streets after a so called 'life' sentance. Attempting to steal that amount of money is not acceptable or forgiveable under any circumstance and yes, of course by me voicing my opinion loudly i am 'hiding something'. Get a grip and wake up to reality guys, people like this are scum, they have the mentality of a thief, have no respect for fellow man, and will not change. And for people saying he will pay back the delivery charge? you must be joking,and i hope him failing to pay the shipping charge will open the eyes of some people on here. However of course if he does turn up with the £200 or so, then il happily withdraw that comment, but it will not change the undying fact that he is a thief.

[quote name='Musky' post='339909' date='Nov 28 2008, 05:27 PM']It can't be done Kev. We can ban his user name, and his IP (though this could possibly interfere with others access), but it's easy to get around both.[/quote] his 2 usernames (that we know of) and his main ip can both be banned to at least give the message he is not welcome on here anymore. Simple advice to keep sellers safe? if its an expensive bass, get in the car or on a train and collect it, you should never buy a £1000+ bass wthout trying wherever possible anyways IMO

anyone defendng this guy is so naive its unreal, its unnerving it really is

[quote name='OldGit' post='339723' date='Nov 28 2008, 03:31 PM']I didn't get on with my Ray a few years back - a 3 band 4 string ... Just couldn't hear it in the mix .. Is a Sub different?[/quote] you couldnt hear a 'ray in the mix???

now the bass is out of the pricks hands, now its alright for me to say exactly what i feel?? Ban him from this site, and never let the little sly c*** return. The prick was trapped by Rob and us on the forum, and thus made some pathetic sob story, which in fact didnt make any sense whatsoever, if it was tormenting him that much, why didnt he just send it?? Its not like he sold it twice....or did he?? If he was in debt, what difference would keeping the bass do if he had already been paid the money? Is there someone else without a warwick out there?? He is scum, and if it was me, much as i appreciate the vigilante work, i woulda had the book thrown at him. I have alot of respect for Reuel being so okay about it all, i know i would not have been the same. But yeah, Ban him, and recommend that warwick forums do the same.

[quote name='dangerboy' post='337189' date='Nov 26 2008, 01:00 PM']It also matters what kind of black russian muff you buy - the later ones were built to green specs, supposedly. [url="http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=571634"]http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=571634[/url][/quote] maybe 'built to green specs', but sure dont sound like one! the civil war muff is the best russian muff by far IMO, iv owned two, sold for £160 and £180, brilliant pedals, just couldnt afford to keep either of them unfortunatly. Avoid the black, keep n eye out for the green, or better still look for a zoom ultra fuzz, not got the low end of the civil war or even the green, but still very muffy.

[quote name='Ou7shined' post='339682' date='Nov 28 2008, 03:04 PM']I got mine for £350 which was considered the going rate back then but for some reason they regularly seem to achieve £400-450+ these crazy days. [b]Well worth it though. [/b][/quote] if your lucky you could bag a proper stingray for £450, so theres no way id go that high for a sub. I think £400 is the absolute ceiling for sensible buying really at the minute

ask them to do a bass solo on your bass, they dont have the first clue

Okay, if we are talking a minimum post count of 200 before they are allowed to enter the forum, then yeah okay thats better. But no minimum count would be such a bad idea, you'll get dealers and more spammer problems and it would just ruin basschat

[quote name='misrule' post='339147' date='Nov 28 2008, 01:36 AM']The counter doesn't start working until it hits around ten or so. Cheers Mark[/quote] nothing to do with it. The amount of views a thread has is only refreshed every hour or so, so it will read no views until an hour has passed.

its down to gripping too hard i think, one of the reasons i avoid using one, i just naturally grip and play hard, thus it being painful!

personally i think this site is already a bit too much of a 'free-bay', i dont think anything not music related should be sold on here to be honest

worrys me how naive some ebayers are, thats easily the worst bit of relicing i have ever seen, without doubt im sure this is a squier or at most a mim, shocking

hang on...did he say that the most expensive ritter bass is $250000?? you'v got to be kidding me
