tedmanzie Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Anyone going for this?! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Squier-JV-57-precision-rare-first-series-/171240590482?ssPageName=ADME:B:WNA:GB:3160 Quote
gjones Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 He's got some nice basses for sale there. A MIJ Mustang and a 70's Jazz too. Quote
dannybuoy Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Was watching it - £641 Is a very good price for a first series with the Fender logo in such good nick! I was also watching a couple of other basses not far from me that I didn't bid on - a Classic 50's P went for £281 and a Roadworn for £485! Edited February 16, 2014 by dannybuoy Quote
Kev Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 You say they are good prices, but those are three market values of three basses. The Classic 50's probably went a bit cheap, but in the current market that is about what would be expected from a JV and Roadworn I think, they haven't been [i]selling[/i] on here for more. Quote
tedmanzie Posted February 16, 2014 Author Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) I'm amazed. i bought my 7x series (i.e. not fender logo) JV from Ebay about 18 months ago for £686, and there were lots of bids. There was a Fender logo'd 62 JV that went on here about a year ago for £1000 - sold in about 20 mins. So I'm very, very surprised that one on ebay went for £641. I also bought a 62 Squire JV from a chap on here about 5 months ago for £600 - I definitely paid too much for that as it turned out the frets were all lifting and it cost me a fortune to sort it out...

the boy Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 I had a bid on this but sadly I was outbid. I really want one of these but I believe I will get one for £500ish. It will happen. In the meantime I'll have to wait. Quote
dannybuoy Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Keep an eye out for items that end just before payday, in the middle of a workday, with local pickup only, and you shall get a bargain! Quote
Rick's Fine '52 Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 That is the bargain of the year (and last year!). I've never seen one of these go for less than a grand, and I've seen probably all of 'em. If I'd seen this, I'd have had this too, especially at that price. Not to be confused with Squier decals. Congrats to the buyer. Proper result!! Quote
discreet Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 And we're not helping ourselves by generating loads of GAS for these, are we?? Quote
