Happy Jack Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Two weeks ago, this bass was listed on Yakaz (whatever that is) as being in Sale, Manchester M33. The wording is also decidedly dicey - [i] I am happy to answer any questions regarding the auction [/i]- which implies that the description was lifted from an eBay listing.

steverickwood Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I'm pretty sure this, and another one have been mooching around graiglist for some time. I contacted both and amazingly, both 'owners' were from the Shetland/Orkney Isles. Happily offering to post btw. I offered to collect in person and never heard back.

jonsmith Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Just in case everyone isn't already rather wary of this, last year I was surprised to see photographs of my Wal for sale in - you've guessed it - Lerwick. I knew it was mine, because I recognised the facings on the bass and the carpet of the person I actually bought the bass from (in Yorkshire). I was particularly surprised because it was sitting in my hallway ready for rehearsal later that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
