s_u_y_* Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Posted only... no definte location within UK. Smells fishy to me. Quote
DirkThrust Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 And look at the reply to the question. Would you buy a bass off someone with an attitude like that? Quote
David Nimrod Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 *Very* Dodgy... he had the same thing on a 'BIN' at £255 a while back. It's is just a re badged Squier, I'm sure. What a con! Quote
Sean Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FENDER-DELUXE-PRECISION-BASS-ACTIVE-cash-only_W0QQitemZ200127669574QQihZ010QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViwItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FENDER-DELUXE-PRECIS...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] Look at this he's selling - what an attitude! He's put his phone numbers on there - ideal for the phonejacker! Quote
The Burpster Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 The Beedster opened our eyes to this chap 'the reclaim man' ....... VERY poor descriptive and comms and comes across as a complete arrogant buffoon..... However one of our members has bought from him and had a good deal, another did and felt aggrieved...... Make your own mind up, if you dont like it, avoid it..... Quote
Musky Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Personally, I wouldn't touch this guy's auctions with a barge pole. While he might genuinely believe the telebass is a Fender, there's no way he's had this guitar since 1974. The guy is an outright liar.

andy67 Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 it is in fact a squier vintage modified precision TB! value £239 new from Guitar Guitar or cheaper if you go to Sound Control! it is a con and am about to remind him of this! I have one of these basses and they are fantastic though! I changed the bridge and tuning keys, fender bridge and schaller tuning keys! what a difference it made prefer it to my departed fender 51 reissue pbass!! Quote
neepheid Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 I've just asked him for photos of the neck plate and the back of the headstock, and also for the serial number and country of manufacture. Don't expect to get a response, but he'll know we're onto him. Quote
spree Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 his phone number is a liverpool/merseyside area code and one of his listings says he is near chester, plausible and close enough for a kicking Quote

neepheid Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 "The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing" YES Damn right there's an error in the listing. Quote
andy67 Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 I did inform ebay! couldn't stand the thought of someone being cheated! Quote
neepheid Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 It's back, a little more honestly described this time.
