He had an ad on ebay at the same time, which ran until the end of the listing and I thought he had forgotten to cancel it. When it ended he renewed it again (a few days ago, I've had the bass for three weeks).
To be honest It's a great bass, I'm happy with it and I'm convinced that the bass in the ad is the bass I've got, but I'd hate someone else to get scammed thinking they were buying something that may not be what it seems.
