Lysdexia Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Hi guys - a stunning example of this bass, limited to a run of 1,000. Finished in metallic candy apple red with matching headstock and pearloid scratch plate. More pics to follow BTW - I don't mind accepting paypal, but please be aware that payment can take 3-5 days to clear and also that [b]if you do not[/b] send the money as >personal>other, then PayPal will charge just as they do on eBay. [b]If you do[/b] send via >personal>other, then it is free! It also seems that not all countries have this option, so any extra charges will have to be met if you want to pay via paypal.

bremen Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) [quote name='Lysdexia' date='Dec 11 2008, 03:41 PM' post='351863'] I'm thinking of selling a plectrum. I'll post pics just as soon as I've found a suitable model to display it ;-) Edit: found her. As you can see the plectrum she's holding is a genuine original pre-CBS Music Man without frettles, ideal for plugged-in jazz or larrup metal.

I'm looking to sell a couple of basses Internationally and one guy in the States needs to pay via PayPal (quite a substantial sum, so I'll be hit for about £100 in charges), if we could do that without incurring charges we'd both be over the moon; are you saying it can be done?

If I was to send money within the UK - you have two, tabbed options to send as 'purchase' or 'personal'. If the money is sent as personal>other then PayPal accept that as a private transaction and there are no charges for using it. Example 2. The chap who just bought a bass from me in Holland, did not have the choice available to him and so had to send it as a purchase. PayPal charged as they would for any eBay transaction. So, you would have to check with the buyer if he has the option available in their country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Lysdexia I like the way you tease us by giving the photos out gradually, keeps people coming back to your thread. A couple of weeks back I spent ages looking through literally every photo on your flickr account, they were amazing you have a true talent. Now where's that next photo?......

Photography is great fun - processing the images for viewing much, much less so. I spend maybe 30 hours a week planked in front of a screen editing So, I'll get more up shortly.

Lysdexia Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) In response to the PM's I've had about the price - I paid £1400 for it, so I'm looking for [b]offers [/b]around the [b]£1075 [/b]mark + shipping. Or you can of course collect it from me in person in Glasgow for a tenner to cover my petrol. Edited December 11, 2008 by Lysdexia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A deposit of $1000 netted me £624.60 (after $39.30 fees and their exchange rate). Thanks for the heads up on trying that one, obviously transfers from the States don't work like UK transfers.

It gave me the option of paying the charges myself or passing that cost on to the recipient. This was only for £15 as well.
