vintage_ben Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 So a Tokai Jazz sound sold on Ebay for £508 on the 5th of March. The buyer then sold it on the 18th of April for £446. Maybe it's just me but this seems a little odd. £500+ is top dollar for one of these. I would have thought that to pay that you would really have to be after this particular model (maybe a Tokai enthusiast or collector) and pretty much know what you were getting. Given that it seems unusual to keep it for a couple of months and sell it on at a loss. 1st sale http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150742200790&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBUAA:GB:3160#ht_500wt_1413 2nd sale http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1982-Tokai-Jazz-Sound-/120894317820?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item1c25dce4fc#ht_500wt_1413 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFRC Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 he bought it and turned up and was full of deadspots? sell it on and it's ebay so risk of a loss. There are folk on here who buy new and then sell at secondhand price in a few months! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Yes, it's normal on here! I don't think there's anything sinister about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uke Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Sorry Luke, that wasn't a hint, just a notice to folk that, just like Fender, some were amazing players! and some were not! I've had enough of both now to know that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
