Quatschmacher Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Just spotted this [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fender-Marcus-Miller-4-String-Jazz-Bass-Guitar_W0QQitemZ300203502457QQihZ020QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]Fender Marcus Miller[/url] for a bargain price - £400 with a buy it now (downside is that immediate payment is required via Paypal). If anyone lives near the seller they ought to rouse him out of his bed in the early hours to get their mittens on this at this price!

Quatschmacher Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) WHAT?! Who was daft enough to not use the buy-it-now of £400? :wacko: It's not likely to go in an auction for cheaper than that. Some people are just plain bonkers.

NickThomas Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Agreed that's a great price ... especially being natural instead of a burst. Nothing's selling very well at the moment though, so it wouldn't shock me if it doesnt reach 400. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick[/quote] I just had a look at the recently completed listings for Marcus Miller basses: 1 for £500, one for £580! Seriously, If I'd had the funds in my account yesterday when I saw this for £400 I'd have jumped on it. Maybe the seller isn't aware of the prices they fetched recently so it still may be worth contacting the seller to see if he'll end the auction for £400. Or you could arrange to go round and try it and just take the £400 with you and offer it then. If it were local to me, I'd do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickThomas Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Is it your auction by any chance? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And, no, I don't know the seller either.) I was just being community-minded when I posted the link as that's one of the things this forum is for; since I couldn't get it myself at the time I thought I'd do others a favour.

Quatschmacher Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 Well, what do you know - it went for £442! Still a good price, but it makes me laugh when this kind of thing happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
