Not that anyone would pay £21k for a bass and not try/collect but £30 for delivery would be a laugh!

maybe they factored some of the dilivery cost into the price?

[Delberthot]

Maybe the price includes first class air fare for the seller to personally hand deliver it to the new owner and the £30 is to cover his lunch?

[toneknob]

I live fairly locally - if you want to save the £30 I'll quite happily go and get it for you and bring it over.

[Delberthot]

what, lunch?

[Cat Burrito]

Looks great. I suspect the seller has just had to state a price but factored insurance into the cost and is prepared to take a hit. Sellers are measured on postage cost so he isn't going to put it too high.

I have to say if I had that bass for sale (aside the fact it wouldn't be for sale!) I've have taken it apart in photos to show more details. I assume they probably do all that on request.

Mouahahaha (yes it is)

need to see the serial number (where is it?) and what is that sticker on the head ?

I'd 'assume' nothing! Not that I suspect either of us will be buying it.

[phil_the_bassist]

didnt that bass do the rounds a few years back, and was discredited by the combined bass knowledge of our esteemed Chatters?

IIRC, it was one of those "Clearing out Uncle Dave's Attic when we found this in a box still with origin price tag of 3 groats and a chicken" or some bullsplit?
