Chap has a nice Lady Penelope Pink 'Ray for sale too[/quote] It's a CMD 121[b]P[/b] and is 500W at 4 Ohms like you say. He's talking crap to say he paid over £1k for it unless he got a very bad deal. He also says it's digital which it isn't. Even so, could turn out to be a good buy. Edited September 12, 2008 by rayfw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still in a credit crunch and with his pressing need it may be a bargain for someone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
largo Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 It's a CMD151P, you can tell with the carry handle on the top, and RRP is £1K+. I'm still not sure this "ebay links" forum is a good idea. I quite fancied bidding for this if it stayed on the cheap side but now I have to bid against you guys too. Anybody else feel this way.

I see where you're coming from about this forum - The Lakland Darryl Jones that I thought had been flying under the radar has now been unmasked here. Bah! Then again it has alerted me to some absolute bargains (a 5 string for £15!) as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as the "heads up" appeared here, bidding starts in earnest. I thought we were only putting BIN links on this part of the forum?

Musky Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Just a thought, but the guy has zero feedback and appears to know absolutely nothing about what he actually owns. Possible scammer? I know he says pickup only, but he also says postage is possible - it wouldn't be the first time that a scammer has said pickup is possible and then turned round after the sale to say that it can only be posted. Like if your wife had just had twins maybe? Anyway, as always buyer beware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the "I am selling because of twins on the way" and all the guff about him paying £1000 and gigging it is all bullshit. We're dealing with a known liar. I'd avoid like the plague - certainly wouldn't pay before seeing it in the flesh, preferably with a burly mate in tow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor_of_the_bass Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 The seller is local to me so being a big nasty looking bastard (and of course, King Collector!), I will try and find out more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
