Happy Jack Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 It's not THAT great, is it? Last time I looked you could buy them new for £215 with free P&P. £110 + £20 courier means less than a 40% discount for a 3-year-old pre-owned bass. Am I missing something? Quote
waynepunkdude Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 I got mine for £80 with a BA2 and Wizard 84's. Quote
Bassassin Posted October 11, 2010 Author Posted October 11, 2010 Fair enough - thought they tended to go for £150ish + postage round here. J. Quote

Annoying Twit Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) I've seen a lot of these sell, and £160 + P&P is about usual. The Classic Vibe and Vintage Modified basses hold their prices very well. I think that £110 + p&p is a very notable bargain. Here's one, £150 + cheap p&p. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Squier-Vintage-Modified-Jazz-Bass-/280573062732?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item4153752e4c"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Squier-Vintage-Modif...=item4153752e4c[/url] Isn't this the guy who has come up before who was selling a present from his mother, and was asking £225 starting bid. And was sure that it was worth that because his mother paid £270 for it? £80 is an insane bargain, IMHO, particularly with the extras. Edited October 11, 2010 by Annoying Twit Quote

Cat Burrito Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 It's also worth remembering that (courtesy of a thread yesterday) there is also one on EBay for a mere £500!!! I'd say this one is a very good deal, not a great deal but almost Quote
