topo morto Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Sounds a decent start although things are a bit slow at the moment... some things aren't selling unless they're really priced to sell... Quote

Kev Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 To be honest, £300 seems MENTAL for a green muff, surely not?!! Have been out the game for a while though so maybe im wrong, but i swear the Civil War Gilmour muffs weren't even getting this much earlier this year. Id honestly think about £150 would be the ceiling price, particularly as its not all original? Quote

topo morto Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I think this is a bubble font one, went for £180: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Electro-Harmonix-Sovtek-Big-Muff-Pi-Russian-/120744978896?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item1c1cf629d0"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Electro-...=item1c1cf629d0[/url] Always good to stick things up for sale on a Friday or Saturday... people come home drunk and feeling worthless and rejected... you never know what could happen!

Just a pedantic point, the one knob isn't original Maybe i'm wrong, not been in the buying/selling effect game for around 2 years so im out of touch! Out of interest, you say you have used it for a few months, how much did you pay for it may i ask? Quote
Toasted Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) £300 is a joke for this pedal. It's completely battered and is missing one of the original knobs. That one that sold for £180 was MINTY. If anyone buys it for £300 I have some magic beans I'm sure they'd also be interested in. Edited July 24, 2011 by Toasted Quote

No you're right, if it's not all original that's a factor - and if it doesn't have the box that's also a minus as many of them do. Still, here's a bubble that went for $395 with missing battery cover: [url="http://cgi.ebay.com/Electro-Harmonix-Sovtek-Big-Muff-Pi-Green-Russian-/170630431393?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27ba5dc2a1"]http://cgi.ebay.com/Electro-Harmonix-Sovte...=item27ba5dc2a1[/url] and one with some electrical issues that went for $200: [url="http://cgi.ebay.com/Sovtek-big-muff-/130550539292?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item1e656b241c"]http://cgi.ebay.com/Sovtek-big-muff-/13055...=item1e656b241c[/url] Alternatively, just sell the two original knobs for $20 each and keep the pedal: [url="http://cgi.ebay.com/Electro-Harmonix-Sovtek-Big-Muff-Knobs-Russian-/260822791717?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item3cba3ff625"]http://cgi.ebay.com/Electro-Harmonix-Sovte...=item3cba3ff625[/url] Quote

Kev Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 By all means if you are in no rush for money then no harm in trying to get that for it, but be prepared for a likely longgg wait! do you want to disclose how much you paid for it? Quote

[b]people come home drunk and feeling worthless and rejected[/b]... you never know what could happen![/quote] I used to do that and got some good results. However, the last couple of times, in the cold light of day, they do not pay for them! Since they removed the power of negative feedback from the seller, it happens more often Quote

Toasted Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) I know it makes me a bad person but I did do a little LOL. Im a bit worried actually when I was watching British Bakeoff on Tuesday when ever I saw a really good cake - especially from the insufferable red shirted girl - all I wanted to do was kick it over.
