neepheid Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Hmph. [url="http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZhankerooQQhtZ-1"]http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZhankerooQQhtZ-1[/url] They seem to take vintage instruments apart and sell the parts off in penny numbers. This week, it's an EB-2. Body, pickup, wiring, case all in seperate auctions. I'm sure I remember them selling an EB-3 off in individual parts a while ago, the whole thing. Hmph again. I don't know what everyone else thinks, but I am not keen on this scattering of vintage parts. Surely it would be better to gather together all the parts that belong together and sell it as a project? Sadly, it's probably done for financial gain; the individual parts being worth more than selling them in one go. Thrice hmph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Burpster Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Hummmn its not confined to musical instruments either.... I know of several motor bikes that have been dealt with the same..... Is it ethical? I'm not sure, some will find annoying, others will finds it a great help as they need bits.....! Swings and roundabouts I'm sorry to say....
