solo4652 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Saw this; [url="http://www.joinmyband.co.uk/classifieds/fender-bass-guitar-for-sale--t698347.html"]http://www.joinmyband.co.uk/classifieds/fender-bass-guitar-for-sale--t698347.html[/url] Already looking like a scam. I asked for details. Seller sent me 40 photos of the bass, and offered it to me for £150! Yeah, right... Then saw this: http://www.joinmyband.co.uk/classifieds/fender-bass-guitar-for-sale--t698346.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchie Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Hi Solo, What does the bass look like, how do you know its a scam? Can you post the photos up? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetaFunk Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 It might just be a case of someone being really nice and selling their bass at a fraction of it's real value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solo4652 Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 Sorry - I've already deleted all the photos sent to me. From memory; CAR body, rosewood board. I don't know for sure that this is a scam - I'm just drawing people's attention to the follow up post by spencerwh on Join My Band. Let's see now; The seller says he/she paid £1800 for the bass and has offered it to me for £150. Apparently, it's being advertised all over the world with 40 pictures - not one of which shows the serial number clearly. spencerwh says: "...so far I've found the same guitar advertised in three continents (!) and the email address above appears on Google's 'spam' list if you perform a simple Google search." I don't think there are many people who would feel 100% confident about buying the bass. Might just be a really generous pre-Christmas offer, of course...
