yamahabass Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 listen mate, this is England and here we dont buy used gear that costs more than if we bought a new moon bass direct from japan, but nice try anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashevans09 Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Fair point, but that seemed slightly agressive... unnecessary, dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Yeah, just a bit!! Nice bass mate but you might want to research prices of said bass direct from Japan. Can be quite hard to find though, but I think around £700 would be in the right ballpark. Cheers ped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers ped[/quote] Well thanx ped and ashevai for the correction and the style . The price of this guitar new is 305000 Yen , approximately 1400 GPB , if you add custom fees ( I don't know in England but in France is about 23% ) and shipping I don't think I am selling it for an exagerate price , but it's a subjective point of view , and this bass is in mint condition. I lowered the price to 1300 € here in France ( My son is born the 17th and I'll need to sell it faster ) and I'll do the same for anybody interested in England , shipping is included and that would be 950 GPB . THANX AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ANYBODY WHO'S READING THIS !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 All the best with the sale at whatever price you go for and we're not all ignorant brits btw Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Cool. I know these basses are absolutely top notch - I really like some of Japan's offerings, especially Atelier-Z, Moon and Bacchus. Nearly bought a Moon Larry Graham bass a while back but back then I was unsure about importing it and so on - and yes tax would have been a bit of a kick in the pants. Customs fees here are 17.5% plus a 'handling charge' but in reality it seems to be quite a slow and annoying process sometimes - it depends if Royal Mail are having a strike or not. In Oxford, where I live, that is a 50/50 chance! Last time someone sent me a bass from Europe with DHL it came the next day though which was brill!! Cheers and good luck with the sale - hope you had/are having a nice xmas too mate ped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changed pups (Nordstrand JV ) and knobs (american made) and now I am searchin someone who's got a Fender CS 64 to compare with. I know already that the RI 62 by Fender don't have any chance. Japanese really are top craftsman !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ped Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Beautiful. I have a friend on Talkbass with a sonic blue jazz bass by Bacchus and he rates it above everything he has had. Rather than post pics here and hijack the thread, you can see my first Bacchus here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=99&st=40"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=99&st=40[/url] and the second on the page after that. Good luck with the sale of the Moon bass - maybe someone came into a bit of spare money over Christmas - put down those turkey sandwiches and get yer' wallets out folks!!

funkydario Posted December 29, 2007 Author Share Posted December 29, 2007 ..well just add shipping and custom ...and still I think that you are a little bit unnecessarily aggressive , I don't wanna rip anybody off . Just selling a bass at the price that I think correct , considering also the mint conditions of this bass but anyway if you are not interested ..well just look some other place . I guess the member of this forum are smart enough not to need a " The right price" bobby to advise them ..my friend. And have a very nice new year's eve !! I sure will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
