Pick up only in Milton Keynes. If someone is handy to pick up and post, I'd put £20 on top for postage.

That bird has flown. Shame really.

I struggled to put something down here without swearing. That's an effing tragedy of a price to be selling that for.

I have gigged mine extensively since I got mine almost a year ago.

[Mr. Foxen]

If someone sees something like this pickup only in central bristol sorta area, just grab it, and I can sort picking it up and sending it out for appropriate money (postage, bus fare, a beer) and some time.

[EdwardHimself]

just goes to show how cheap you can get things for if the seller gets the name wrong and isn't willing to offer postage despite living in the middle of nowhere.

[Mr. Foxen]

More to do with the Buy it now being really low. It sold in minutes.

[Mr. Foxen]

Another one cheap here, not as crazy cheap: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Epiphone-Gothic-Thunderbird-Bass-Guitar-NR-Korean-/110751269613?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item19c94a42ed

I'm happy to do the same in and around the Blackpool area. I work for a mail order company so have packing materials available freely and regular courier pickups every day.

The damamge to the jack area looks like a bit more than a surface crack? Is that a trade-off with the price?

[Delberthot]

There's a big crack across the body on the last picture to the left.

to be fair they have been steady at around £125 so the price of this one would reflect that. What I don't get are the jokers trying to sell them for more than they cost.

They'll never be as popular as Fenders or Squiers and they aren't for everyone but I still love mine and even if my Warmoth becomes my number one bass, I'll never sell it - I'd get damn all for it

Looks like it's received a hefty whack on the jack socket area which has been enough to split the wood where it runs through the pot holes. In fact, the cardboard wrapping that it's lying on gives a slight clue to how it got treated in shipping...
