[quote name='Machines' post='128354' date='Jan 26 2008, 06:25 PM']I've been quite lax about it to be honest but i'm now getting bored of it. If you disagree with price someone has put their item up for, then PM them saying why you believe it is too high. Something is of course only worth what someone is willing to pay, what YOU are willing to pay may be different to someone else. If they choose to take your advice then great - if not then it isn't your problem. If you believe the seller is purposely being dishonest about the item then please PM a moderator who will look into it. The vigilante style self-moderation that is becoming commonplace is a nice theory, but can leads to this kind of situation. It doesn't benefit the forum and doesn't give a favourable impression of the people who are discrediting the item. I will from now on begin to delete any posts where I believe a member is discrediting the seller for the only reason that they disagree with the price of the item.[/quote] +1

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='126718' date='Jan 24 2008, 10:19 AM']Never seen these before, but just looked at the website & loved the look of the bublinga one. Would also be interested to know of anyone who's played these or who owns one.[/quote] I tried the 5 string SymBass in a local shop here in west wales,it blew me away with it's tone and it was passive!!!1x bassline MM style pickup,the look takes getting used too,but once you try it you will be sold!!it has 19mm spacing and a wide neck with a thin profile from back to front,if you like the 6 string yamaha you have,i presume it's a TRB-6,then i think you will like it,B string was very strong!!but the whole balance of the tonal range on all strings was excellent,it wasn't cheap!!!and i nearly bought it,and still have my eye on it,hope this helps,all the best,J.

[quote name='P-T-P' post='112297' date='Jan 2 2008, 02:10 PM']I've owned a couple of these beasts in the past few years and can safely say that those suggesting SH prices around the £700-£800 mark aren't far off 'cause that's about what I paid for mine and what I was able to sell them for too. That having been said, it does always bug me a bit when I see these kinda feeding frenzies about pricing, no matter how well intentioned those pointing out the issue may be. My thoughts are that unless you're intending to buy it at the price you think it's worth, best leave alone or at worst make your point in private to the seller. At the end of the day market forces will prevail irrespective of the discussion, if someone is happy to pay the asking price then what's the problem for the rest of us and if no one is prepared to pay, the bass is still the seller's and again, what's the problem for the rest of us? All that having a public debate does is put the seller at the disadvantage of having their integrity publicly called into question. No offence meant to anyone, it's just my opinion.[/quote] +1
