police squad Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 I actually found this via BC in the ebay weird and wonderful section (which I don't often look at) I was going to use this bass on bank holiday weekend sunday, what will i use if he sells it!!

Grangur Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) I just bid and was outbid straight away. I've tried reporting it, but I can't find any category in their awful web site that matches the category or for us to write anything. Has anyone else found one?

Silvia Bluejay Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Would you like me to FB this thread too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 LOL I've posted it on FB too, just to make sure it reaches as many people as possible. Not sure why the post is showing my avatar and preventing me from removing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassintheface Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 any more info on this - these sorts of people really wind me up! Bloody scammers!! Want me to bid also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutton Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I've added my tuppence worth by reporting to ebay that the listing is fraudulent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom in Dorset Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Has this been reported to ebay? How about asking the vendor for more pictures? Or posting a question on the listing like "if you own this bass why are you using pictures of my bass to try to sell it?" I noticed that the seller has no feedback.

Dom in Dorset Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 They are also selling this bass (as well as some hifi stuff) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aria-SB1000-/141037567469?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item20d67e7ded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Cloud Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Yet another reason why I avoid ebay like the plague nowadays. I have been scammed before and ebay were not interested one bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBunny Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 The guy says he is based in Sale, which is just down the road from me. I'll see if I can get him to let me have a look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom in Dorset Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Also in the link I just posted there are two pictures that are clearly different instruments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky72 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I mailed him asking why neither of the pics were of a 1980 SB1000, thats a SB1000JT and a SB1000 1983 onwards he's using to try and sell it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me it ain't me [/quote] Good thinking the great thing about this is, if we bid it up to £1,000,000,00 he will then get the ebay fees on that , ( not that it would be paid but ebay would pay attention then !) its just a pity its not at the end of ebays collection month which would mean they would try and take it out of an account before the winner could pay, Edited August 19, 2013 by funkgod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
