Buying a used bass.... the Truss rod; do you check it?

I'd have to disagree - I'd be perfectly fine asking them to demonstrate that it works. I'm sure they would want to do it themselves rather than let me get my paws on it but if they outright refused I'd walk. Same with a private sale - if I was selling a bass and someone asked to check the truss-rod I'd offer to demonstrate it working for them. I'd not let them do it themselves since I'd be worried they could be a 'prize special' and try and doing a 1080 spin on it and bust the neck. But I'd have no issue demoing the rod being moved in order to confirm the bass was in good working order.

I'd be perfectly fine with all that too so it seems we agree not disagree.
