Genuine 1978 Precision Bass???

Not really questioning whether this is genuine or not because it probably is, but it is listed at a "Buy It Now" price of £1300 which seems very reasonable, then I saw it again listed as an auction item with a starting bid of £1800, but what puzzles me is the fact that it is listed by TWO different sellers, one is in London, the other is in Bourne, both have 100% feedback so are probably genuine sellers, one is charging £20 for shipping, the other is charging £28 for shipping, all seems a bit odd to me.

Your thoughts?

Same item description “you can no longer find these basses!”

you can though...and £1300 might be pushing it, let alone £1800

Shipping is £800 tho due to the fact it weighs the same as a small car... 🤣

The second one may be genuine, I spoke to the girlfriend via EBAY who was going to get back to me with information from the boyfriend who's bass it was, which never happened. I didn't chase it up though and I did offer a much lower figure which she did refuse.
