    [b]To anyone thinking about the postage issue:[/b] Last time I posted a bass to the uk mainland it was about £15 with Parcel2go. I think that was a basic package. So its still under £100 for a pretty cool instrument. I'll try to pilfer a box from the local music store. [b]For those interested and living around London:[/b] I gig and rehearse in London often, mainly East and Southeast London so we could arrange a meet. I dont mind meeting around the east side ot the M25 too [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?&app=forums&module=extras&section=legends#"] [/url]

    [quote name='Dr M' timestamp='1356087696' post='1906594'] Out of interest - is this an Affinity series or Standard series? (Or something else?) [/quote]Affinity Series. - sorry, I didn't realise that was just out of shot. I also thought the P Bass logo was exclusive to the series.

    SOLD OFF SITE! olly white (has an attractive yellowish aged look about it) - ever so slightly road worn; a chip here and there, still very pretty! set up by me, so it's a very playable bass and sounding pretty good too. Because I go abroad often I like to leave a bass at my regular haunts. I find Squiers the perfect basses for this purpose. Don't have to worry about it, and when I'm there i have a very usable Fender at hand. This one is surplus now so I'm flogging it. Comes with a light gig bag £80 and she's your's...... trade me with something...i might go for it

    oh...that's the guy.....i remember now. I didn't know his name......funny guy...

I think we should start a new forum...come on every one get all your gear out on the pavement and take a pic. NB: better get the weather report first though [url="http://www.gumtree.com/p/community/bass-player-and-double-bass-player-with-vocals-deps-gigs-christmas-new-years-eve/1005083546"]http://www.gumtree.c...-eve/1005083546[/url]

    [quote name='ped' timestamp='1355254326' post='1896049'] Classifieds show in the 'new content' if selected. Also you can have notifications of questions on your items if you set it via your preferences. [/quote]oh...now you tell me.....hahha! thanks!!!!
  16. Shonks
    and ......i have several ads in the classifies and apart from 'my content' not displaying my ads, I was just pm'ed with a question on one of them because I wasn't notified of a question to an ad which I hadn't answered ......because I didn't know it was there.....how could I????!!!!!!!!!!

    [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1355241225' post='1895828'] One thing to consider... is that a forum/chat site is only as good as the contributors it can attract and retain. [/quote]agreed
  18. Shonks
    how about a fee to all members, so anyone can advertise or post anything when they like - that'll get rid of of the 'one off sellers' and you can get rid of the classifieds too!!

    charging discussions are all very well, but the the classifieds for me has screwed with the 'vibe' of basshchat. The old market place forum was[b] fun and interesting, informative and even educationa[/b]l to a point. I know I've said all this before but my visits to the site have diminished considerably. At least on Gumtree the location of the item is obvious and you have a wider audience. [b]Will you pay to sell here when its free on Gumtree?[/b] I've sold almost all my stuff on Gumtree and some of the buyers were Basschatters. I think the 'classifieds' are cold and impersonal and boring actually - sorry guys - but that's how I feel shame..

    classified adds are just that! . . . the market place is a discussion and bartering bazaar, people selling and not wanting to trade often changed their minds because of various offers etc. i've got 3 adds in the classifieds at the moment and not one comment on anything, which in my experience here, is highly unusual. oh, and... charge money ...loose participants ...... bass players are the poorest people i know, and the meanest....

    'x' should mark the spot where they bury this bullshit entertainment, then someone should move the 'x' so we can't find it ever again!!!! ooaargghh Jim lad! anyway, what else shall we talk about..Kate and William's new '3rd in line to the throne' baby??

    [quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1354532667' post='1886959'] As a new user I think I'd look at the classifieds and think "oh, its a bass gumtree". [/quote]exactly i thank yoo!
  24. Shonks
    I still think te classifieds echo Gumtree, and gumtree has a wider audience, so not much point using classifieds here. The market place forum was just that, a forum and so gave BC a club type feel

    SOLD to the gentleman on my left!
