I was initially surprised when I saw this as I thought that Status basses were quite expensive. But searching on here, there seems to be a Status Groove 5 string that is being sold and resold (if it's the same one) on BC for about £280. However, I'll post this link just in case £200 is still a notable bargain.

The seller says 'No Reserve', but it's a "Buy it now". They may be confused a bit.

Edit: Sold prices for a Status Groove on ebay are £300 and £419. But, those looked to be in better nick and had the original hard case, while this one is being shipped in a broken Hiscox case.

They're OK basses, not Status's finest hour though. Nice enough to play, but a pretty gutless sound IIRC, and certainly not the 'Status sound' if that's your thing. I suppose there might be reinforcement bars in the neck, but otherwise there's not a scrap of graphite in them. Cheap enough though. Who am I kidding, it's horrible!!
