alicedear Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hi all. I've just been introduced to Basschat, and after looking at the For Sale section, I wonder if it's worth trying to sell a couple of basses I have in my possession on here or not. They belong to a New Zealander who's gone back home and asked me to sell his gear if I can: an Epiphone EB3 and a five string Vintage V950B, neither of which is going to get pulses racing. Having tried all local sources I'm a bit stuck-and I'm not going to register on e-bay just to get rid of someone else's gear. Any thoughts appreciated.

johnnylager Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) Welcome. Always worth trying, everything is worth something to someone. Er, that's a little deep for a Sunday afternoon, but I hope you know what I mean! EDIT: Post some pics & prices and see what happens...

Machines Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 If the price is decent then they will shift, they aren't THAT bad instruments so I expect someone may give it a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts appreciated.[/quote] you have a strange definition of "cheap" I just bought a V950B via this forum two months ago and I certainly do not consider the bass to be cheap... neither do I consider an Epi EB3 to be cheap... a "cheap" bass to me is an Encore or other made in China starter bass... something you [b]would[/b] have a hard time shifting in here... it would be easier to shift one of those by just taking it round to cack-converters (or similar)... and taking whatever you can haggle them up to... ps.

I said 'cheap' because the items for sale I browsed through seemed far more exotic than my Kiwi friends'; perhaps I just didn't delve deeply enough! As for the profile-yes, of course I will, but having only registered yesterday and then spent a rainy day having to entertain my young daughter, I never got any further than signing up!
