karlfer Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) It's been removed. Anybody can ask what they wish for an instrument. Nearly £2300 for an £89 guitar (thankfully not a bass ). Well done that Mod! Edited February 13, 2016 by karlfer
Luulox Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 I was sat wondering if the world had finally gone mad when I saw that. It's just taking the p**s. Definitely Well done to the mods!

It should be removed, we are more than a selling site we are a community that has a certain amount of trust and ads like that are not what we are about in my opinion obviously.
timmo Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) Well, a scrap of paper with all the Rolling Stones autographs, a seller wants £750. That includes a signature by Brian Jones, which I would imagine bumps up the price significantly.. I would have to say that it is around £2000 overpriced. Maybe £500 tops as although it is a cheap guitar, it is better than a scrap of paper. An album is for sale with the current line up, plus Bill Wyman for £1850, and it doesn`t even include the record. No idea how long these items have been up for sale. These are completed listings of Rolling Stones autographs from ebay. so may give a clearer indication of it`s true value. http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=rolling%20stones%20autographs&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc&_trksid=p2045573.m1684 pasted wrong link Edited February 13, 2016 by timmo

I just didn't think Basses for Sale/Trade was the right place. TBH I didn't think Basschat was the right place, but that is only an opinion and certainly not my call. If I'd seen where it had moved to I wouldn't have started the thread. I only did so because I thought it had been removed.
sunburstjazz1967 Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 I don't see what its wrong with it, they are not forcing anyone to buy it are they?

A little research could tell you it`s rough value, and £2300 is way to much. If it was signed by Hendrix, then it would be worth it. 50 years time it may be worth the £2500. While they are all still alive though, It is way too much in my opinion, even if it included Brian Jones. There again, it would be a 50 year old guitar, so the value of the guitar may bump it to that price.
