Who's Who Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Bought a TC rig from Col He is a top guy to deal with. Kept communications up until we could meet. The rig was in top condition as described. Col is a gent and you can deal with him in confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliusmonk Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Col just bought my Diago pedalboard unseen - swift payment, absolutely no hassle, great communication. Feels great to be able to deal so easily on the sole basis of mutual trust. A BC legend. Thanks Col! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alhbass Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Just sold a Markbass cab to Col - very pleasant to deal with, and very patient with some delays and hassles getting it collected by the courier at my end. Thanks for making it much less stressful than it might have been! I'd be very happy to deal with him again anytime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPBass Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Cheers Al. These things happen, the constant communication proved you were busting a gut to get it shipped and I appreciated that. Theres no point in getting worked up if people are doing all they can. Its at those times you find who the good ones really are. Top stuff and a pleasure trading with you.

Bassmachine Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 No words for Mr Col.... It's really a man who anyone should make a trasaction to see what I m talking.... We make I believe the most multitrade in out basschat history UK-GREECE... All went as it should with accurate delivery time and all the items was as he described them So don't worry for everything is case of sale -trade or buy anything from Mr.Col As he said... I find a very good trader and also a better friend...... Thanks Col Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom1946 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I really am unhappy at having to leave negative feedback and can only tell the truth. I bought the Fiesta red Stingray with that gorgeous birdseye maple neck from Col on the clear understanding that it weighed 8.5 lbs. He weighed it on his old scales and said it was around 8.5 lbs, I said are you really sure? Col said he'd ordered a set of Salter scales from Amazon and when they arrived he confirmed that it was 8.5 lbs on them too so I agreed to buy it. Couldn't wait, it's a wonderful bass so imagine my surprise when I picked it up out of the case, it felt heavy to me so I got my digital postal scales out and the reality is that it weighs 10.85 lbs! Felt like it too. I'm 74 with a glass shoulder and a very bad back so it's useless to me. I immediately contacted him to return it but he's spent the money. I never spend the money until I know my customer is satisfied. I don't think that 2 sets of scales can be exactly 2.5 lbs out. The upshot is that I cannot recommend Col to deal with because I feel that I've really been let down. Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
