I heard these were appreciating in value, but really? Admittedly this is in spotless condition.




I have a '64 Egmond Princess(think Gibson 335 shape) bass knocking about, presumably as it's even older and still working and playing beautifully it'll be worth about twice that..?

I suppose they're even less common outside Europe, but even so ....

Your Princess looks nice. I was amused by this pic on the Dutch fan site.

Completely mad isn't it.

I bought a B2V body recently for £20 - and even that was a good fiver more than it should have gone for!

Oh dear.

Someone has made the mistake of thinking that because one dreamer wants an absurd figure to part with his bass, then offering his own for 10% less constitutes a bargain.

Oh dear. I may stick my Princess on for the absolute bargain price of 1k then. Nothing ventured..!

Not in a rush to sell mine, but couldn't resist.

It's amazing just how many people seem to think that auctions with prices that attract absolutely zero interest somehow represent a useful guide price.

At least he hasn't wasted a listing fee by sticking it on Ebay.
