So are they some kind of scammers? is that what you mean?

I don't see a scam here, I see someone having bought the bass for very cheap who has the ability to sit on it for a while and get a better return on their investment. I do this from time to time, if someone needs the cash and is happy to sell low because they need a quick sale, I've been know to buy with the intention of resale because I have the ability to sit on it, and wait for the right sale, something the original seller might not have had time for, or wanted to do. Seems like reasonable business. Unless they are a scammer, in which case lets arm ourselves, form a crew and go beatin'!
