I did 2 bashes up th'north with you pie eating mild swilling folk .

Isn't it Mark @ Bass Direct ? And yeah suits me, 10 mins down the road .

Yeah it hasn't really been mentioned. I'm sure ped was involve with working something out though...

I quite like the hollowbody, plus the Corvette 6$$. The headless should burn though..

Depends on loads of things really... how old is it ? what condition is it in ? what colour ? is it as standard ?

Top stuff Kev. This guy is performing at my wedding .

Yeah I think my car is an Lambhorghini despite the Ford badge.

I think that sounds pretty cool - especially the Gulf colours.. Use this as a template

[quote name='bassbloke' post='122267' date='Jan 17 2008, 04:18 PM']I reckon Groove65 might have some recourse - description says great condition. I would give my local CAB a call and ask if it's possible to initiate county court action in the case of a second hand item either described improperly or improperly packaged for shipping. Even better, I do believe that Melfaso would be obliged to attend a county court hearing at the court in which the papers were filed if it went ahead.[/quote] Sounds like the best option, if of course - he has details beyond a paypal email address. You'd need the sellers name, address etc to make a claim.

Nope, still not seen one, seems like a bit of a flop.

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='122222' date='Jan 17 2008, 03:03 PM']It appears that this may be the case here? We need pictures[/quote] Where do you draw the line after that ? If I sold a bass with an almost invisible scratch I hadn't advertised would I be banned ? It's down to the buyer to be satisfied that the item they are purchasing is from someone they can trust and that the item is seen (even if just online) before being bought, same as eBay really. The buyer himself has said it's [i]partially [/i]his own fault for not waiting for decent pics to ensure the bass was as described.

Never bought anything from Tony but I live round the corner from him and have met him a few times now. Deal in confidence etc..

Prices have gone up a bit haven't they ? It's in MusicMan territory now and they won't win that one..

I've ensured the offending seller cannot post anything without a moderator previewing it first. A ban is unfortunately not really likely to happen as he hasn't done anything against the terms and conditions of using this forum. It is unfortunately caveat emptor and the forum/moderators cannot take responsibility for any for sale items. Moderators can mediate in a dispute if required, but it isn't really any of our business and the deal is strictly speaking a private affair. That said - we don't want to see members being swindled and if someone is blatantly selling ropey gear or just taking money then we will of course take action.

You can get an Ashdown EB-12 180 for £180 new and they regularly sell on eBay for around £120 if you don't mind 2nd hand.

I picked mine up 2nd hand for <£200. They were on sale at soundslive.co.uk for £250 for a bit too... they ran out around December I think. There was one on the for sale section for £200 but collection only from Bristol. Might be worth asking the seller if he's still selling.

They're both so relaxed... almost as if they aren't moving.

Confusing eh!?![/quote] It will be visible as the person who quoted it isn't the user blocked. It'd be probably too complex to implement blocking based on other users posts.
