andy67 Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1335196663' post='1627063'] Interesting link from one of the guys selling a Japanese P. [url="http://www.mijfenders.com/frmBass.htm"]http://www.mijfenders.com/frmBass.htm[/url] [/quote] Your link is has an Edinburgh area code attached to it - 0131. I'll try to check it out but my feelings are it is this lot: http://www.importedinstruments.com/edinburgh-store/info_1.html
karlfer Posted April 24, 2012 Author Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) Could well be Andy, I nicked the link off the chap who is selling a CIJ Precision . Non exports are really getting to be silly expensive now, with increased VAT, huge delivery costs from Japan, price increases in Japan and all the import duties that go on top. Those guys prices are pretty reasonable. 2 years ago a Japanese non-export 75 re-issue with matched head stock would cost about £960 to your door. Now it's nearer £1380. Second hand USA Fenders are currently tremendous value in the great scheme of things. Still, this DD is rare so difficult to judge against other prices. Huge interest (average 260 views per day for 10 day) but nobody with the cash. If Bob's FenderBird goes, this will be pulled. Cheers, Karl. (mind you, VERY tempted by Cameltoe's P, I'm such a tart ) Edited April 25, 2012 by karlfer
karlfer Posted April 25, 2012 Author Posted April 25, 2012 Sorry, will never again sell to anybody outside UK/Ireland so please don't ask.
karlfer Posted April 25, 2012 Author Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Anybody considering this bass needs to read my feedback carefully [color=#FF0000]as there is now a negative comment.[/color] . Karl. Edited April 25, 2012 by karlfer
karlfer Posted April 26, 2012 Author Posted April 26, 2012 Withdrawn, will be going on the Bay in the hope that I sell it whilst the FenderBird is up for sale. After my feedback went belly up, pointless me trying to move anything on on here. Thanks for everything peeps, Karl.

There's always two sides to every story and I'm sure if someone reads your whole feedback thread they'll draw their own conclusions about your honesty and integrity.

warwickhunt Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I'd not sweat about the feedback thing. On the plus side you've given others considering dealing with the complainant a bit of an eye opener!
columbusrobbie Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) +1 to the last three comments. I'm still new to this forum but like what I see. It's a great resource. If I were looking to buy from you I would actually be impressed by your feedback rather than concerned. You appear to be a genuine seller prepared to go the extra mile when you can. Maybe put this one down to experience but don't regard your feedback as having gone "belly up". Far from it. Edited April 26, 2012 by columbusrobbie
tom1946 Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Karl's a top man, end of. I'll still buy from you mate, (as long as you have summat light )
