binky_bass Posted January 16, 2021 Author Share Posted January 16, 2021 One item has arrived safe and sound! If the other also arrives then it will prove to me that not all humans are terrible!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binky_bass Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 Well, it turns out that in fact not all humans are 100% awful! The second item arrived today, and not only was it in almost unused condition, the sender also included a set of unused Zildjian Travis Barker sticks! Considering I only paid £10 for the case, that was remarkably kind of them. There are some good eggs out there, not everyone is a Mason! 😂 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanderfier Posted November 12 Share Posted November 12 (edited) I know that feeling—waiting and wondering if stuff’s actually gonna show up! When I need to roll the dice for real, I use this site, dice.onl. It’s pretty clutch when I don’t have actual dice around and need a quick roll. Doesn’t help with the Gumtree gamble, but it’s a fun little tool if you’re ever in need of a random number.

binky_bass Posted November 12 Author Share Posted November 12 To be fair, they were both pretty low value items, so minimal risk to me and minimal point for the seller to cause an issue by not sending them. I'm not sure I'd do it with anything worth more than a few quid though! Still nice to know that in the land of scammers that is online sales platforms, there are still good eggs!

MrDaveTheBass Posted November 12 Share Posted November 12 If I'd known you were so trusting, I wouldn't have bothered to open the door when you came round to pick up the Laney the other week! 😉 How's it sounding BTW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binky_bass Posted November 13 Author Share Posted November 13 Sounds great! I've currently got it paired with an Eden Time Traveller combo where the head on that doesn't seem to work any more, but the speaker is still does, so the Laney is acting as the stand-in head for that combo! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapotamo1987 Posted Friday at 15:12 Share Posted Friday at 15:12 Haha, living on the edge for sure! I've done the same before, and it always keeps you on your toes, wondering if you'll actually get your stuff. One time, I bought a vintage game off a random seller online, and I was super nervous after paying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
