JuliusGroove Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 This isn't mine but saw the ad whilst windowshopping on Gumtree and thought somebody might like to get themselves a bargain! http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/musicman-stingray-5-p-string-ebony-bass-guitar-whardshell-case/1038666425 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lizard Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I am sceptical. That seems too cheap. Theres no contact number on the ad either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazed Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Shhhh Another too good to be true gumtree ad? Recently bought a bass from eBay , the next day I saw the same bass, in fact the identical ad including serial number and pics on gumtree on the other side of the country and for half the price. Careful out there ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Bargain, I will just send him my bank account details and mothers maiden name..........hang on a minute! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliusGroove Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 Yeah.. I'm pretty sure it's the bass from a previous ad and it was bought between three for a band.. I think he's looking for a quick sale to finance another purchase. Don't shoot the messenge! Just trying to make the whole world use Musicmans..

Paul_1991 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 This reminds me of the time I found a Modulus Flea '97 on Gumtree for £400. I e-mailed the seller to say your instrument is worth circa £1200. Smelled a fake. He said he needed to shift it quick. Either stolen or total BS. Gumtree a no for me.

Dazed Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 No chance. Seller contacted me. Can buy it using PayPal , pay zone but not real money! Not possible to meet. ie send money and wait for delivery ......or not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 As expected, good its so cheap really,if it was a bit more with a real phone number and a good story I could see someone getting stung. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
