smurfitt Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I wont mention on here as I dont want post deleted but Ive advertised for several items in the Wanted section and am thinking its unlikely I will get anywhere. Maybe I have to look overseas. Can anyone recommend sellers ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synthaside Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Hi I've not had a bad experience using the wanted section , usually people have not been able to find me exactly what i was after but i'd always been offered things in the right ballpark by PM. I would ask you really look at your last post and consider the following ? I'm not trying to be rude with these questions but like with everything the wanted section its a game of luck / chance which one can make it really hard for ones self. 1. Are you looking for something REALLY bespoke or specific If so your wanted add is probably going to struggle ? 2. Are you Perhaps under offering money wise for the item you want ... i think of wanted adds as a "last resort to tempt a person to sell something that they wouldn't list normally so you might need to make the deal a bit sweeter. 3. Is it an item that isn't too expensive , hence worth the sellers time to deal with or would be quite a challenge to ship for a seller this is again going to make it a challenge to get people to want to deal. Good luck out there , i assume you have tried all the other aveunes ... ebay , the Facebook guitar exchange websites which i've done some great deals myself on along with any specialist sites ... IE status for status basses . Edited February 24, 2016 by synthaside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger2611 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I guess it depends on what you are looking for, everytime I have posted in the wanted section I have received replies but then I haven't been looking for something especially unusual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truckstop Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 GT-10's are really really rare. Just give it time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazed Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Just sent you a PM. Could be your lucky day. Let us know if it works out Edited February 24, 2016 by Dazed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurfitt Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 Thanks Dazed. I appreciate the help but have now had my GT6b repaired and if it goes I might just get a GT100 until a bass version comes along. I dont tend to use the amp simulators; moreso multiple effects and as a stompbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurfitt Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 No offence taken Synthaside I am after specific basses and colours etc but am offering cash....no amount stated. Before coming on here I'd been searching for a few weeks on evilbay and facebay gumtree and schpock. I guess I need to be lucky.
