You do know that's referring to the brand of beer, not the bass guitar, right? 🙂
-
This is a Sterling by Music Man, though, so their equivalent of Squier by Fender, right? -
That's the first Genesis song I liked.

(It may be, though, that the screw has simply become loose and is letting the cog ride up and disengage, so if it's still under the tuner cover, it'd just be a matter of unscrewing the 4 corner screws, tightening it up, and putting the cover back on.)

I really wish ebay had a block/ignore facility.
-
Ah, the wit and humour of ebay sellers who think they're the first to come up with a hilarious posting... What next - an air guitar? (Or maybe an air plectrum?!?)
-
It reminds me of the Columbus, which was my first bass. Too far and anti-lockdown for me to collect. However, I think I have one of those generic Japanese tuners in my parts box, so could contribute that to help get it up and running.

At £400, I think I'll give it a miss. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kay-Generation-Series-Vintage-Thru-Neck-Bass-Guitar-Korean-Late-1970-s/393102807185

Absolutely! Though the thread was initially raised regarding a musical equipment sales scam, it turns out that these are not the only the actual/alleged issues at hand. IMHO, the more who contribute to this with actual first-hand experiences and police/legal cases, the better. -
Chumlee...

Something smells about that ad - oh, it's from Cologne...

PayPal Goods/Services; not bank transfer or PayPal Gift/Friends. If you can do face-to-face, then you know you’ve got it. Socially distanced demo is more of an issue.

Them Jaydees are big!

A welcome departure from being yet another Strat-a-like...

Maybe it could double-up as a zapper! -
...but it sure is kindof cool. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MENSFELD-Ironcross-electric-guitar-Seymour-Duncan-Schaller-Floyd-Rose-and-tuners/224241866897

One of the other folks here ended up getting a repayment from the scammer and via their bank's fraud process! (Being honest, he returned one of them.)
-
In which case, the people who have screendumps of the web pages and chat of him stalking and harassing them would become pertinent...
-
He is a convicted fraudster, counterfeiter, and liar.
-
I feel for you. I think he's compartmentalised the fraudulent selling from the ripping off fellow musicians fees.
-
How did he do the refund? It has been pointed out that it’s still fraud, even after it’s been refunded; I think the line of demarcation is when money has changed hands.
-
It happened to me here last week (no reason to doubt the seller, just I've decided that's the way forward for me).
-
Some might consider it to be hassle or an indication you don't trust them; I've had that happen.
-
Interesting use of a string retainer there...
