ThomBassmonkey Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 (edited) Bought a Warwick Thumb off him (twas a while ago now, but on the back of another thread, I've been encouraged to start a feedback thread for him). After setting up the bass B-G (he had it E-C) it turned out the neck had some problems and needed some serious work, I contacted Jay about it, letting him know what happened and he agreed to cover half the costs, so I went ahead with the repairs. It turned out that the problem was more serious than anticipated but luckily the Luthier stuck to his original quote. I sent Jay a scan of the reciept and have sent several emails and PMs via this forum but he's ignored them all, so as far as I'm concerned, he still owes me half the money for the repairs. He's still active in selling equipment on here (in his latest thread for an amp for sale, it was a bit shifty in it's self: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=109924"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=109924[/url] ) so I guess people should be aware of what happened with me. Of course if he resolves it, I'll update, but it's been several months since I heard from him so I'm not holding my breath. Edited November 26, 2010 by ThomBassmonkey Quote
Chris2112 Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Terrible shame to hear you've been stung like this. Jay, you should pride yourself on doing business well and with integrity. I think it is in the best interests of your continued use of this forum that you take action now to set things straight, I'm sure you'd be quite pissed off if someone sold you a lemon with a dodgy neck.

Musicman20 Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 What a shame. Hope you eventually get your cash for the dodgy bass. I can see that thread now for the GS112. I was tempted to make an offer but I wont be bothering now. Sorry to hear it didnt go well. Quote
ThomBassmonkey Posted November 26, 2010 Author Posted November 26, 2010 I did send him a message last night after I noticed the Aguilar thread, just had a look on [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showuser=672"]his profile[/url] and he's been online this morning so he's obviously seen the message and has no intention of sorting this out. Oh well, you live and learn. At least it wasn't a huge amount of money. Quote
Chris2112 Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 It's the principle of the matter though. Quote
