He's presumably quite near to me (I'm in Edinburgh) and I certainly would have had a look at this if I'd seen it - this ad's from November so I imagine it's long gone. If it was legit it'd be worth selling a few body parts to get hold of one of these at that price. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xilddx Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Amazingly cheap, can't believe it really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 That is very, very cheap for what it is but then again it isn;t everyone who's up on the value of stuff. He may have bought it very cheaply years ago when Ricks were relatively cheap second hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS73 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Yes, Total scam, I saw this last month and sent a message and could I come down with some cash (it was £1500 then and he was in London), he replied that he wasn't available but if I want to send the cash to his bank, it's 100% refundable if I don't like it. So I mail again and say I'm in London with some cash, he replies that he's with the Bass at his parents house for xmas, oh and that's The Isle of Man!!!, but I can still send cash to his bank for a 100% refund etc. Now it's gone down by £100 as if he thinks someone will say WTF and send the cash I did a search on ebay and it did sell on ebay last year for proper money, the pic's were the same ones as these.

Stag Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 That explains it all nicely... As i thought, far too good to be true! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Thought it must be a scam from the advert text - he refers to "pics" at one point, and says "There are two nicks on the back of the bass neck that I am disclosing here as you can see in the picks." at another, but there's only one picture.
