guitaremporium Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 First of all, I am sorry for those who were not able to take advantage of my 'Big Sale'. I know it was odd but I was going under because of over stock which was just not selling. I bought extensively when FJ announced their 15% price increases but no-one wanted what I had despite their being the the best sellers over the previous year. I was fortunate that another dealer bought my entire stock other than those that Basschatters managed to buy in time. This has solved my cash flow problem so I will continue to trade but will probably be altering my model slightly which will involve a famous West London retail outlet some more. Because of the loyalty that I have experienced from this forum, I will offer substantial discounts over the next month - these will be individually based because of the current financial climate; but they will be worth having. When I have established a sustainainable price list, I will offer Basschatters an ongoing discount. I thank you again for your continued support and hope I can continue to provide the same.

Musky Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Great news! Not that I'm thinking of purchasing right now, but you never know when GAS will strike. Now, famous West London retail outlet - must be Harrods! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budget bassist Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 That's cool dude, i'm glad you've got it back going again, even if it was only a couple of days. Where are you based mate? I may be inclined to come visit you one day and perhaps take you up on this basschatter discount once you get back on your feet good luck!

Having stock that no-one wanted was was what almost put me out of business. I had everything but wrong colour, wrong neck etc so I will now only get to order. I will still honour try before you buy but you have to know what you want and order it. FJ prices and choices are just to big to carry the stock.

Geek99 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) thats very good of you. I will still take a jazz bass off you if you have one, or can get one reasonably quickly. are the prices and stock availability (once ordered from FJ) still as the GE website?

OldGit Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Posted on the "So long and thanks" thread as well but just in case .. Glad you have not gone totally... If you are still reading this can you help identify this one as the seller doesn't know what model it is.
