Ibanez ATK 5er

[Bassassin]

Very badly listed ("5 string electric bass guitar") Japanese (apparently) Ibby ATK, starting at a ton:

[url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=005&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=150140025657&rd=1&rd=1"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...p;rd=1&rd=1[/url]

I'm a little bit dubious about the seller's 1 feedback rating, but worth a look for anyone who could pick it up in person, maybe.

Hmmm. Photo obviously taken in a shop ?

Either that, or the seller [i]really[/i] likes acoustics!

And only £5 postage for a Bass and Case. Definately a pick up in person, but could be a bargain.

Sent the seller an e-mail asking for serial number and model and this was the reply:

[quote]"Hi,
My bass is in Paris at the moment, I will bring it back before the end of
july. I will phone tomorrow to get the serial number and get back to you.
Thanks,
Lucy."[/quote]
As the listing ends in 3 days, any buyer won't see the goods for 2 weeks or so.

I think the word (potential possibly before it) 'scam' or something similar should be edited into the title of this thread and all others on ebay items with questionable feedback and dubious listings.

OK. All of a sudden it stinks like rotting fish.
